Balta1701 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 At least he didn't pick the final four of all #1's like IIRC some candidate for something did a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's interesting are the trends. Clinton went up after OH/TX, then back down and Obama took a lead. Then lately, after the Wright stuff, Clinton has surged back, though not taken a net lead. It will be interesting to see the tracking polls in another day or two, after all 3 days are post-Obama-speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah the Wright story was a huge hit on Obama, but I imagine his speech was his best possible response. Now he's got to hope it dies down, and that the speech won over some Democrats.

NorthSideSox72 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 So, polls for PA (4/22) seem to peg the Clinton lead there in the low teens range right now (polls 500+ other than Zogby-garbage and PPP, who are Clinton-paid)... Quinnipiac, 3/16: Clinton +12 Rasmussen, 3/12: Clinton +13 NC (5/6) polls show a single-digit lead for Obama, the polls are a bit stale... S-USA, 3/10: Obama +8 Rasmussen, 3/6: Obama +7 The first poll is out now for West Virginia (May 13th) though, and, wow... Rasmussen, 3/13 (702 LV)... Clinton: 55% Obama: 27% UND: 18% Yikes. The next few primaries don't look so great for Obama. He's still got a good lead, but, that could dwindle significantly if these margins stay in place. Not that they are likely to, as campaigning in PA is just beginning, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Well, we know where Lou Dobbs stands in this. Despite a report that ran during his show showing that Clinton has supported NAFTA in public and that released schedules show she sat in on NAFTA strategy meetings... well David Gergen (a CNN emplyeee and former CLINTON White House staff member) said she was against it in private. Well, then that clears it up. She was against it. Talk about IGNORING the facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSNBC points that there were reports back in 1992 that someone in the Bush Sr. administration / campaign possibly accessed Bill Clinton's passport data. Trend anyone?
