Read it and weep, Hillary fans. Obama ahead in all major polling sources.
Edited on Thu May-29-08 06:00 PM by papapi
Barack Obama has pulled ahead in all major surveys across the country. There is no longer any margin of error.

2. That Can't Be True
Bill Clinton said so himself the other day that Hillary's winning in the polls.

And a Clinton would never lie.

9. Bill said Hillary is winning the GENERAL ELECTION!!!
How can that be possible?

Who cares! It's what Bill said so it must be true, right?

52. So true. Everyone in the country is wrong. Hillary is winning the delegate count, the EV, & the..
popular vote. Hillary's campaign has said so, so it must be true. We know that forthrightness and honesty are her major character traits.

I doubt that will discourage you from your present course but it was incumbent upon me to try...

and let your pals in the HRC booster camp know that some of their vicious, Obama-bashing threads are likewise unappreciated.

okay: no one really expects anything more from you in any event.

22. Did you not understand my reply? We weren't discussing the tenure of our respective participation
on this board. We were discussing your turgid Sunday School preaching at Obama supporters for being "mean," and I simply pointed out that a little consistency might give you some much needed credibility. And all you can do is burble about how long you've been here.

Pitiful - but typical.

100% last year.

He's not a liberal repub, he's a McSame as Bush and has promised more Alito/Scalia/Thomas appointments and to continue (if not intensify) hostilities in the middle east.

78. If you are voting for Insane McCain, then you have no right to have Gore in your avy!
It would be a disgrace and you dishonor everything he stands for!

86. Isn't it against the rules for Republicans to promote their candidate on this board?

I mean, here you are, supposedly "supporting Hillary", when in fact you're supporting McCain.

They seem to have given up on state/territory polls and are just running national polls now.

75. They are relevant to super delegates who have not yet decided and to one more group -
- the millions of Democrats who will be pissed if the wrong candidate is nominated.

73. The consensus of independent expert opinion favors Sen. Obama winning in November
""The Rasmussen Reports Balance of Power Calculator shows Democrats leading in states with 200 Electoral Votes while the GOP has the advantage in states with 189. When “leaners” are included, the Democrats enjoy a 260-240 Electoral College lead (see summary of recent state-by-state results). Rasmussen Markets data gives Democrats a 63.4% chance of winning the White House in November (results are updated on a 24/7 basis by market participants)."

"Rasmussen Reports believes the race is over and that Barack Obama will be the nominee of the Democratic Party. We will stop tracking the Democratic race in the near future to focus exclusively on the Obama-McCain match-up."

Even Fox New acknowledges the advantage:

74. Hmmm, has Hillary approved this as usable polling? She says she is ahead in every single one.
You better check with her before putting up any elitist polls.

82. I seriously thought those were going to be polls of
Obama vs. McCain. But it's all Obama vs. Clinton. Is she even relevant? Why are they even still polling on this? Put a fork in her, she's done.
