(CNN) - For the fifth straight day, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are statistically tied in Gallup's national tracking poll, the latest indication the Democratic stalemate shows no signs of ending four months after the primary season began.
Clinton holds a one point lead over Obama in Tuesday's tracking poll - a statistical tie, given the poll's 3 point margin of error. In the last five days, the two candidates have either been exactly tied or separated by only one point.
That trend marks a clear departure from the weeks before the Pennsylvania primary, during which Obama almost consistently held a wide lead over Clinton. Meanwhile, the five-day tie is one of the few times all year in which the two candidates have been deadlocked for more than two days.

My God… I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW MANY HILLARY SUPPORTERS ARE JUNKING UP THESE BLOGS!!! Face the facts… You've lost, you are the losers, and Obama has won the nomination by the legitimate rules the party has established for decades. The Press is just keeping this alive for the story. Everyone else in the real world knows its over… and unfortunately the Clintons have thrown away all their dignity and respect they worked so hard for all their lives. Just to come in second place….
His jig is up – he may end up losing INdiana and may be North Carolina too. His supporters will start off on their bashing campaign since nothing else is working
OBAMA leads Clinton in every poll. Just tell the truth people.
We are all tired of the Clintons.
Being an Independent makes my decision much easier if Obama has this nomination stolen from him.
I cannot and will not vote for Hillary no matter what happens.
It's over for Obama... if we want the White House back we need to back Hillary or simply give it up to McCain. Maybe Obama can lick his wounds and try again in 8 years.
People,
Open your eyes and say Obama bye bye
Senator Obama is the best candidate to our next President. I support him 100%.
But Hillary! LIVE'S...
People are starting to learn who Obama really is. Hopefully, he and his reverend will keep shedding light on their true nature and we will see the better candidate pull through for a win.
HILLARY.......YES SHE WILL.
OBAMA WILL WIN INDIANA. THE REV WRIGHT ISSUE IS NOT WHAT WE SHOULD BE TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE! WE SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON THESE HIGH GAS PRICES, AND HEALTHCARE, AND THE WAR IN IRAQ, AND...
NO MATTER HOW THIS ENDS, WE CANNOT AFFORD ANOTHER 4 YEARS OF BUSH AND HIS TWIN MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!
His idea of healthcare--> Play God with you body, and DON'T GET SICK!!!!!!
And that's the best the original front-runner, lead-pipe-cinch, crown-clutching DemQueen will get. Not good enough, never was.
Rise Hillary Rise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hillary 08
Obama will still be the nominee.
Obama took so long to divorce himself from his Reverend because he used the Trinity Church in Chicago to get elected to State Senate. Without Rev. Wright Obama would not be where he is today.
It is sad that Obama did not express sympathy for what is clearly a man on the verge of senility. A man he called uncle who is clearly not well. What a shameful day for Obama.
Obama just picked up another superdelegate, Richard Machacek, a member of the Democratic National Committee from Iowa.
YES WE CAN
If the superdelagates have any brains (which is highly doubtful at this point), they have to realize by now that a candidate Obama in the General Election means bye bye democrats in '08!
What a shame!
CNN, enough of Rev. wright. Talk more about issues.....please.
Thank you.
What the blurb fails to mention is that this Gallop Poll has McCain in front of Obama. Clinton still leads McCain handily.
It might get wider for Clinton as she is about to take the plunge and go on the O'Reily Factor. You know he won't be easy on her. She is one tough woman.
Well, that's nice! Looks like that Indiana is going to be a tie and Clinton is still that much behind! A whole 138 delegates. Winning half of Indiana will only bring Obama and her ahead another 50% of the calculated delegates. Hellooooo... North Carolina puts Clinton behind... and yet Obama still exceeds with more delegates again!!!
I simply don't understand why this is being reported anymore. Hillary CANNOT win the nomination. That's the math. If she wins it, it will be more stolen than JFK's 1960 victory in Illinois during the general, more stolen than Dubya's 2000 victory in Florida. Hillary Clinton is counting on the superdelegates to do what lay Democrats haven't: give her the nomination. She is a liar and a crook, and she is a detriment to our political system, our country, and our people.
The polls lie like Hillary Clinton
I agree with you Angie Pen and I beleive Hilary should be the next president but for a commander in chief we need the muscles of a man. We all know that Hilary wears the pants and that she is capable but OBAMA, NEVER!!!
CNN IF YOU REPORT REAL NEWS LIKE THIS COURT CASE THAT IS LOOMING OVER CLINTON, VIEWERS WILL SEE HOW SHE CONTINUES TO LIE ABOUT A LOT OF THINGS. THANKS FOR DOING YOUR JOB OF NOTHING NOTHING NOTHING
