HRC is going through a civil suit on may counts of fraud. HRC is a part of the special interest system that condones lobbying for legislation; she's a part of the problem. The Clintons picked up over 100 million dollars after leaving the White House; they'll do anything to get back in the White House

Number of Delegates:
Indiana: 72
North Carolina 115

Don't be fooled. North Carolina is the big prize, not Indiana. If Hillary can't 'close the deal' and win North Carolina, then this race is over - despite what the media and the Clinton campaign portray.

Whitewash Review: Hillary's Scandals Will Re-emerge
By Tim Graham | December 8, 2007 - 09:55 ET

James David Dickson of The American Spectator reviewed our book Whitewash on Blogcritics:

"In the general election," counsels Jonah Goldberg, "audiences will remember Whitewater, Travelgate, illegal fundraising, bimbo eruptions and impeachment. If they don't, you can be sure Republicans will remind them. Fair or not, the Republicans' intense dislike of Hillary will underscore the idea that a vote for her is a vote for more of the same rancor."

Whitewash is a great place to start in producing this rancor. As to whether conservative journalists will have any success cajoling their mainstream brethren to join them, that, like Hillary's election next November, is far from inevitable.

Some conservatives have insisted that the Republican nominee can't win merely by offering negatives about Hillary Clinton scandals, even if Dick Morris did call her "The Tornado" for all the trouble she caused. It's not up to the GOP to remind people of Hillary scandals. It's up to the conservative New Media.

THANK YOU!

change change change
we all want change
CHANGE is having the 1st woman president in this great country
if this is not a real CHANGE then what is CNN

Okay, let's hear from the Obama supporters getting their nasty comments posted and I leave this one in favor of Clinton, knowing that Obama cannot beat McCain and it will not get posted.

Wow so much stronger than girly man obama.

so what?she's still not the best candidate to unite anyone.

Sure just make up more poll SPAM to try and FOOL Americans!

How ridiculus can the Clinton's get?

VOTE OBAMA. Clearly the right choice.

No Clinton Dynasty allowed!

Uhhh… CNN. What you (again) fail to mention is that Obama puts various RED STATES in play for the Democratic Party for the first time in decades. States like Colorado, Virginia and even North Carolina could swing toward Obama in November, making potential defeats in Florida and Ohio meaningless. Hillary would have absolutely no shot at winning such states. Nor does she appeal to Independent voters in the way Obama does. Obama is the much more electable candidate.

here comes the clinton news network spin…putting CNN's official candidate Hill Clinton on top when Obama is the front runner

Yea and Obama can negate them by winning a few blue states.

Come on CNN stop with FL andOhio why not do all 50 and lrets see where we are at as far as the Electoral votes!

Voting for Obama is a vote for another 4 years of the Bush policies, because he CANNOT win against McCain

Yes, Obama is unelectable at this point. Hillary is the best chance at getting a democrat in the White House. Gentlemen, please don't be afraid of an intelligent and outspoken woman with a clear vision.

That's all well and good, but she's not, you know, going to win the nomination. Not fair and square, anyway.

please superdelegates don't be fooled by the polls. she is not the choice for president. she's conniving, deceitful and rife with double standards. please do not fall into her evil trap. we do not need someone like her at the helm.

Bam! This is for you Joe Traitor Andrew & Bill Traitor Richardson! Shame on you!

Clinton polling machine trying to falsify information.

Like USAa has 6 states and not 50.

Finally the truth is coming out….but will it make any diff. to the old lions and super liberals of my party…Of course not. They have a vested interest in getting the new untested shinning star elected…they know they will be able to control him….after all if he is afraid to debated Hillary Don't expect him to stand up to Tedddy…..Hilllary is the only one to have a shot at McCain…now the people know it…the polls show it…and the super liberals will again ignore it,,, how sad for a once great party. To be brought down by an empty suit seeking world power.

This says it all. Obama would lose the GE, Clinton would win it.

Game. Set. Match.

I believe Obama would increase his lead over McCain once this primaries are over.

God Bless America.

mm-hmm, certainly this won't change when it's Obama v. McCain one-on-one.

It's a whole different ballgame when you just compare one person to another, as opposed to a three-candidate dance. These polls are irrelevant.

Polls, schmolls. They'll keep changing and changing back, esp when we learn about the Real McCain.

People are now getting it.

Obviously, the people taking these polls have been duped…

You lie, drive your campaign into debt, and hide things (like your tax returns) on the campaign trail, sounds like the same old Washington we've had for the last 8 years to me….

superdelegates vote for hillary, the democrats want to win in november. hillary can get this country back on track, she offers solutions, and the economy was good in the 90's when bill clinton was in office. vote hillary 08!

Let's not get dramatic. Sen. Obama is in a 5 against 1 battle between the HRC establishment, and her supporters, John McCain, and his supporter, and the GOP attackers. I must say Sen. Obama is fending pretty well given his unequaled circumstances. Once the nomination is sealed, the once distorted polls will begin to reflect accurate data.

What's new, Hillery's the only one standing between John Mc Cain
and the White House, can't Obama and his people get it through
there thick scull's.

It's just because she's still around! Once Obama is the nominee…Then Democrats will come together and take this country back from those insane Republicans!!!

OBAMA 2008!!!!

I guess CNN very much wants Hillary to stay in this game!! I love CNN, and value their contributions greatly. However, like the Clintons, I am beginning to question their lack of good judgment.

Why run a losing candidate (Hillary) against a viable candidate like MCaine. Hillary cannt even defeat Michael Moore, if he were to be in this race. So, CNN, please maintain your status and see things the way they are— Hillary is not, and will not be the nominee. Stop wasting our precious time on these dumb polls.

At what point do you say, "enough is enough!"

This is all phony until we have a nominee.

alot of the backers right now are divided because its taking so long.

Once we have a nominee the majority of those states will be Democrat either way!!

Wait until the guys who don't vote in all the polls decide the election. Hopefully they won't accept a defeat in Iraq.

Better watch out for that sniper fire Hillary, and Obama your crazy buddy there is still talking.

I can't help but think that the media has damaged Sen. Obama with their 'tabloid' coverage of Wright. Its been like rubbing vinegar on the wound of our nation. So, Sen. Obama has been playing defense constantly rather than staying on message!

OF COURSE, Sen. Obama is losing ground!!! And his poll numbers are down! After all the talk of Wright for an ENTIRE month, he is being destroyed ……… makes me very suspicious of why?

What the media fails to realize is that the American people are a whole lot smarter and much more fair! Sen. Obama will prevail! Because he has a message and a VISION for our country that neither Hillary nor McBush have!

Come on, Indiana, show the media that they DO NOT have the last word in this campaign!

After watching the latest Republican ads against delegates who support Obama, there is no way he would beat McCain!

His poll numbers have fallen due to his own actions and words.

Hillary is the one to beat. She "walks the talk" while Obama "talks the talk".

He is not strong and decisive, and without a resume, he at least needed to have those qualities to do the job.

CNN, you guys are getting to be a little pathetic…can you report some real news???

wasn't this reported two days ago. this is old news and the superdelegates are not buying it!

Enuff CNN!

But won't Obama put other states into play that have traditionally been GOP? In the south, perhaps.

Also, isn't it pointless to poll people about a campaing that hasn't begun yet? If you put Obama and McCain on the same stage, I can't imagine people rushing out to vote McCain. He's going to look addled and weak.

Then again, people are morons.

Great! We know Hillary is the strongest candidate to go up against McCain.

John Edwards, where are you? Indiana and North Carolina can both be Hillary's and the Dems will be on their way to victory in November with the best health care program and the best economic policy.

Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hate to say it the supers are in a bad spot.

Obama will most likely win the nomination but is unelectable due to his bitter remarks, Mr Wright ,and Michelle not proud to be an American

Hillary has lots of bagage as well but she will most likely loose the nomination but would have been able to win the white house.

If the supers pick Obama they loose the white house becase he is unelectable

If the supers pick Hillary they loose the white house because the black vote will be angry

That is what Howard Dean said superdelegates needed to do; that is, to vote for the candidate who could win against John McCain in November.

It is going to be a hard thing to do especially now that both Hillary and Barack have baggage to deal with.

So superdelegates need to vote for the person who can best take on John McCain that is Hillary Clinton.

Go Hillary!

Only if she is: The Nominee? Wake Up. Democrat's.. Wake Up. You Female's. Who are still left____ wanting….

Wake up call! Obama supporters better start really rethinking their decision. Obama might win this battle, but he can't win this war.

HRC is going through a civil suit on many counts of fraud. HRC is a part of the special interest system that condones lobbying for legislation; she's a part of the problem. The Clintons picked up over 100 million dollars after leaving the White House; they'll do anything to get back in the White House.

This why Hillary is the only democratic candidate that will beat McCain in the Fall. So if we want a republican in the White House again vote for Obama!

If they show that now it is only because Hillary and McCain have both been throwing their stones at Obama.

Once we get Hillary out of the picture we can unite the Democratic party and bring new members in. No one in their right mind would vote for another 4 years of Bush.

OBAMA 08

polls polls polls! how many time do we have to see them proven wrong before people finally understand they are like weather predictions just a best guess! Hillary is not electable in November 60% of this country will vote for anyone just to make sure it is not her as president! as they did in FL and MI being the only one on the ballot in MI she should have carried at least 80% but no she could not win over the support of her party! most of her party do not trust her and can not stand her!

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can

Then why are super delegates staying away from her?

What about the other 47 states?

Stop making this about three states. I guess since I don't live in either of those states my vote doesn't count.? This is the reaon why we've lost the past two elections. We put all of our eggs into three baskets.

No one with a broad intelligence cares about Hillary Clinton.

Voters of Indiana and North Carolina will deliver for Hillary Clinton just like Pennsylvania. They're too smart too buy all that Obama hype. They can see a true winner.

I am so disappointed in this country's media. Everything they report is slanted or spent towards one candidate or another. Why don't they just do their job and report the facts, without the spin. Their job is to report the TRUTH

Hillary is the best! She picked up two more superdelegates yesterday, but I suppose CNN doesn't want to print that. You guys just love it though, but someone switches to Obama. You can't wait to get that news out, and it'll probably be on top of your site all day long.

Is anyone surprised that Clinton is looked at more favorably in Florida and Ohio? Her propaganda for the last month has been to get their votes to count. (Even though she agreed to the deal that if they broke the rules their votes wouldn't count). Once we get her poison out of the way, Obama will do just fine. The Clinton Machine has spent the last 3 months twisting facts and lying to the public. It seems as if it has started to catch on unfortunately.

Since Hillary is so strong with the blue collar workers we hope she will campaign for the nominee, who will be Barack and ensure that the party wins instead of bringing him down like she is doing now. Then we will really see where her loyalty lies,the nation,the party or herself….in that order.

Obama 08 and 12

Hmm so why don't we just have primaries in Ohio and Florida? Why even bother with the other states?

The Hillary campaign will spin the current situation however they need to to make it seem like they are winning.

The American people have spoken - we want Obama.

A monkey would be stronger than McCain in a political contest.. this is not news CNN!! Must be a slow day eh?

Here we go again cnn

Funny..can ANYONE here name a person who has been polled or KNOWS anyone who has been polled??

In 46 years I have NEVER been Polled OR known ANYONE who has.

I am seriously beginning to wonder about these "Polls" and who exactly they are talking too.

Why is Hillary still with Bill? God's laws takes precedent over the laws of nations!!

1. How can she stay with an "impeached president"?
2. How can she stay with, "thou shalt not commit adultry…

Anyone who thinks Hillary will bring back the Internet boom and wealth of the 90's must have a bird's brain!!

Is if just me or has anyone else noticed that the Rebuplicans are completely ignoring Hillary Clinton. They act like she isn't even still in the race. All their efforts are on attacking Obama. They do not have one add running, or have they spent a dime on Attacking Hillary. OK, now think HIllary supporters ( I know it is difficult to do ) the reason for this is because they know she will not win the DEM nomination. They seeit Obama sees it, and believe me he is feeling it as well. He is fighting a 2 fronted fight against Mc cain and HIllary. LOL i guess I should say 3 front if you include that Idiot Wright. Anyway, You people need to get beind the obvious Dem nominee and do what is right for the Dem party right now. IF you go and vote for McCain in the fall instead of Obama then you truly are a bunch of spoonfeed fools. She and Obama are not that far apart on their policies. If you don't vote for him then all the crazy support right now is just a popularity contest for you guys. As for me,………………..I think we owe it to our children to chose our President by more important measures. Just my thoughts.

Isn't more electable like being more pregnant than someone.Electable is electable.If he matches McCain in these areas and picks up areas that Hillary will lose then he wins.Nice try!!!.I really cannot see democrats voting for McCain out of spite because she didn't get the nomination.Are these polls figuring the 90+% African American vote that she will lose.Do these polls this time next week.

How does Clinton do in Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvanis with no black support?? Becuase if she if handed the nomination, the African-American community will not show up.

Keep fighting Hillary, the message is finally getting through! Substance over style is what this country needs.

Hillary '08!!!!

Yes, I agree she need a two thirds majority of those superdelegates.
What I can not understand is why is this still a issue? The Clinton camp wants to have a trade deal with China, is this another way of touting NAFTA? The Clinton's are pushing a trade deal with Columbia, again is this touting NAFTA? This is something that the Clinton's claim will help American's, but will it really? How many more jobs will leave our borders at the hands of the Clinton's before America and the superdelegates wake up to reality?

These polls don't mean a thing… Clinton will not win against Mccain. She lacks integrity and she is phony! We will see in the end that Obama is the best choice and he will beat Mccain in November!

obama 08!

Don't make me laugh…I'm a little suspicious about those polls - coming out of Clinton country, and possibly Clinton directed….

Is Obama buy Superdelegates with cash as reported on TV last night?

Why are we even talking about this, the general is 6 months away, perhaps we should be focused on getting the nomination, this Poll is useless, alot can change, what are we in the political futures market…just another spin poll to confuse voters…the question should be, which party is more electable! Clinton is still relying on good will from Bill…the really concerning issue, is that with her campaign tactics, she has turned what should be a substantial majority for the Dems into a statistical tie with Bush's replacement..that is the story here!

The Dems should be up 20-25 points, not bragging about how I have a lead of 4 points over McCain….Only ONE person to blame for this and that is Hillary…..

who care

This is only a Hillary advantage if you buy into the swing state strategy (i.e. secure your base and then win razor-thin margins in a few big states like Ohio and Florida). Given how well that worked for Gore and Kerry, I say we at least try the 50-state-strategy championed by Dean.

Hillary certainly won't hear it; the Clintons have totally bought into the Rovian "divide and conquer" strategy. She may be doing well in these three, but states like Michigan and Wisconsin and Oregon spell big trouble for her in recent polling, while Obama is winning them. I also don't see pro-Obama states like Colorado giving her a chance.

I think once Sen. Obama wins the Democratic nomination the tide will turn in his favor in a very large way. Nobody with any sense is going to vote for McCain over Obama just because he beat Sen. Clinton in the Democratic nomination process. If they do, they should really get their heads checked. Anyone who thinks that 8 more years of Bush type politics is OK, the economy is only in a minor downturn, and oil will never be below $100/barrel again doesn't need to be running the show.

DNC is a bunch of idiots.
Left wing liberals hijacked the party and with help of proObama's media shoving up Obama through throats of moderate democrats with rational thinking.
Such behavoir turned moderate democrats off DNC.
Believe me if you pushed Obama thru nomination there are many-many-many thinking democrats who will never vote for him and either stay at home or vote for McCain. At least he is decent man and not this smoothtalking unworthy unexperienced and weakwilled junior senator.
Also CNN, MSNBS are shamelessly biased and their so called best political team (best shameless team) completely lost credibility from honest thinking people

The SD need to do what is right for ALL AMERICANS and that is stand behind Hillary and WE the people.

IF the DNC and SD want to throw us to the wolves, then come November they will be thrown out.

Obama is unqualified, inmoral.untruthful, unpatriotic, arrogant, suffers from narcissism,

Quit treating the American people like we are ignorant,DNC

Even Michael Moore supports Racist approach to campaign with anti-white attitude.

Obama learned to use Racism as a political tool in Hawaii.

This is why we wilose in November if Obama is the nominee. He can not carry the big blue states that are necessary to win. If the super delegates give the White House to the Gop, I'm going to be really pissed.

Why not expand your story about the latest former Clinton loyalist to move to support Obama. His complete comments about the reasons for his switch deserve at least 10% of the time you have devoted to Wright's comments…..

It is sad that CNN has selected not to be a NEWS channel..so many stories about Clinton and McCain are never covered…the stories you do post are incomplete, slanted and not researched.

Reminder: Hillary Clinton is winning the popular vote. Dispite Florida and Michigan Delegates not counting, those people still voted. Thus she has more votes than Obama. May be wise of the Dems to remember the last time they had a candidate win the popular vote and lose the election.

this simply means a democrat can beat mccain in those states… doesnt have to be clinton necessarily.

Unbelievable how ignorant we Democrats are. We will lose the White House if we do not support Hillary. I thought after 8 years of Bush that we would have realized that we need to support the best person for the job. Mr. Gore would have done better just as Hillary would do better. Wake up before it is to late.

Thiellection is about the old vs the young. About the ones insecurely clinging to the past, agains the ones understanding the America needs to change fundamentally. So the divide is inevitable. However, as history has shown many times, the ones clinging to the irrelevant past WILL BE DEFEATED. And Clinton is part of that irrelevant past. As soon as she is out of the way (which is SOON), Obama will finally have the chance to mobilise the voters who want to survive, You will be surprised. NO to the old insecure boomers.

PREDICTIONS

HILLARY R. CLINTON WINS INDIANA BY 63% OF THE VOTES

HUGH UPSET IN NORTH CAROLINA HILLARY R. CLINTON TAKES THE POPULAR VOTE BY 51%

NOVEMBER 2008 HILLARY R. CLINTON WINS THE GENERAL ELECTION BEATING JOHN S. MCCAIN BY 52%

THE NEXT P.O.T.U.S. PRESIDENT H.R. CLINTON, THE FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICA….

Please let Obama win… Hes a great guy I love him, I even voted for him because McCane was already out leader… GOOOOOO OBAMA

McCane 08′

no need to add my comments , you delete them anyway!!!let me go to msnbc

I told you so – It’s about time
No Clinton No Democrat in White House in Jan 09
Let’s Go Hillary!!!

Clinton can't win fair ans square. She is trying to scare blue collar white voters into thinking that this African American-White man won't be out for "their " best interest. She is in the end the phony one. Wake up middle american blue collar voters……Barack is the choice for us!

Obama08!

lets count the comments……………………….
if they are negative towards hillary rack them up to 400 plus
if they are negative towards obama or his wife close it in the 60's

Amazing..For weeks Obama is outperforming Clinton in all kinds of polls….no CNN headlines…now when polls are favouring Clinton for a short period due to the referent Whright bius, you come up with these headlines suggesting a major shift!

You have 5 tickers up right now about Rev Wright and:

Zero up about Clinton getting ready to start a nuclear war with Iran

Zero up about Clint lying to those people in IN blaming the Bush for closing a plant that Bill had everything to do with

Zero up saying that every economist on the plant thinks that her gas tax holiday is a horrible idea

and you wonder why shes up in the polls. I bet you guys already have your plane tickets ready for Denver.

She will not win and it is over for Hillary. This immigration day should be a wake up call for those people in Ohio and Pennsylvania. They voted for Hillary and now NAFTA is the real big issue. As you can see, the Republicans are behind NAFTA now. Bill and Hillary was behind NAFTA. Now illegal immigrants want there fair share. Are we joking here? Are you really going to vote for a person who told Canada that they will still honor NAFTA and then blame it on Obama's camp?

Guess the younger folks just love the Drama that Obama creates! Can't wait to see what happens with Rezko….!!!

I think that these polls show the strength of Obama's campaign rather than a weakness. for the past month, Barack has had to fight a two-pronged attack of Hillary and McCain in addition to the media turning anti-Obama during this time as well. Meanwhile, the media has ignored the other two campaigns and the ongoing issues with both candidates (Paul vs clinton, Rev Hagee, Clinton's former pastor and sexual child abuse, etc). With all of this being said, he is still running strong. Of course he is not doing as well as Clinton right now becuase all of the nagetive attention has been focused on him.

Once the nomination is secured and the attention balanced out, he will bounce back even stronger than before.

Which is great because all of these moron superdelegates are going to end up moving towards Obama.

McCain is going to waltz into the White House.

And I though Kerry was a bad candidate. Democrats never cease to amaze me in their ability to lose. Thanks to Wright, Hillary is the only Dem with a chance.

It also shows her now winning in Indiana and closing in Nc..how is the liberal media and the Obama people going to sping a Victory in Indiana and a close race in Nc?????She is a tougher candidate. Obama will loose the general. Everyone I know who is for Clinton will vote Mcain…He definatly will loose Florida where I am from since he didnt care about my vote!

Entirely valueless until the Dem candidate is decided. Then, Dems will back the Dem… don't believe the emotional poof coming from Hillary supporters who "pretend" they'd back McCain in the general if Obama is the Dem candidate. Any vote for McCain will be sourced from insanity.

RISE HILLARY RISE!!!!!!!!

DUH….Obama its time to get out…..NOW!!!

Obama will never win!!!

Biased CNN…
What about VA, Iowa and Colorado?
You are trying hard to give a life to Clinton…Sorry it is too late
Obama is the winner and the race is soon over…Even Hillary strongest supporters has deserted her

Because of your bias, CNN, I understand that this comment will not show up…We heard that Wolf is chasing pastor Wright to keep the story alive

This is just another form of media polarization.
To think that Hilary is stronger, when in actual fact Obama is leading in all of the polls.

Guess, wiwe will continue to see NEGATIVITY all the way.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!

"American Politics"

We know who is winning.

With more Pledge delegates, the popular vote and more superdelegates.

WELL DO THE MATH.

Beacuse of the rooted correpted Clinton family by all Democratic state she won the priemeries.

Drop out NObama, you are NOT electable!

Go Hillary!!!!!

SHE IS THE ONE!!!!

I am so disappointed in this country's media. Everything they report is done with a spin or slant towards one candidate or another. Why don't they just report the facts without the spin. Their job is to report the TRUTH, not their BIAS. My question: Where are the true reporters with heart and uncompromising character who are not trying to get a position by saying what you think someone wants you to say. Don't they realize that compromising the truth for a temporary opportunity leads to mediocrity. GREAT reporters are those who are not afraid to report the truth, even if it contradicts what they believe.

It doesn't matter how bit margin is, as long as they can bit McCain.

I received an e-mail that Hillary Clinton's pastor has been convicted of child molestation, is this true? If it is … isn't the news media showing double standards.

This is just another reason why Obama will not get the Nomination, he can't even win the General Election, Clinton 08!!

THE LAST I HEARD, THERE WERE 52 STATES CONTESTING THE ELECTION. VERY SELECTIVE SAMPLING IN MY OPINION . HOW WOULD HILLARY STACK UP IN THE OTHER 49 STATES?

I think in general election Hillary is better than that. For Obama I think he
going to lose to McCain because most of Americans don't like Obama and Rev. Wright hatred and Obama story "DREAMS FROM MY FATHER"
mention of "CHANGE AND HOPE" was from Rev. Wright is not Obama.
People don't buy what's Michelle and Obama said.

Here's the thing….this shows Clinton is more ELECTABLE. She wins bigger in the states with the most electoral votes, the states that elect a president. A candidate can take ALL the small states and still lose the election if they lose the big states, especially the big swing states like PA and OH and oh by the way FLORIDA. It is really naive to believe otherwise and I think Sen Clinton is the only democratic candidate left that can WIN the BIG Swing states. Sen Obama might win some of the smaller swing states, but without the big ones, John McCain will end up president. I really wish the Supers were thinking about Nov instead of caving to the pressure of Chrm Dean. I really think they should just hold off until after at least Indiana and NC.

SO WHAT….This is more of the News media and Clinton supporter just trying to keep the Obama -Clinton competition to continue…
HERE IS WHAT IS REALLY STARTING TO IRK ME!

WE CLAIM TO BE A COUNTRY OF LAWS AND RULES..

THE RULE AND/OR LAWS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SAYS THE NOMINEE WILL HAVE THE MOST DELEGATES AT THE END OF THE PRIMARY/CAUCAS'S.

IF OBAMA HAS THE MOST HE IS THE NOMINEE!!

IF HILLARY HAS THE MOST SHE IS THE NOMINEE!!

ALL OTHE OTHER STUFF IS IMMATERIAL..AND FRANKLY ANNOYING!!

WHY DON'T THESE POLLSTERS GO OUT AND FINDOUT WHAT PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT THESE ISSUES…

HOW DO WE STOP THE 50% DROP OUT RATIO IN AMERICAN HIGH SCHOOLS??

SHOULD WE RECONSIDER OPENING UP 20% OF THE NOW PROTECTED LANDS IN THE US MAINLAND AND ALASKA FOR OIL DRILLING??

SHOULD WE START TO RESTRICT SOME OF THE IMPORTS FROM CHINA DUE TO SOME OF THE RECENT QUALITY ISSUES FROM THERE PRODUCTS??

WHY DON'T AMERICANS BY MORE AMERICANS CARS EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE IMPROVED THERE QUALITY 100% IN THE LAST TIME YEARS??

tHERE ARE A LOT MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO POLL THAN THE "FICTIONAL" MATCHUP OF THE CANDIDATES…..

AMERICA WAKE UP…DEMAND MORE FROM CNN..NBC..CBS..ABC..
THEY ARE HOLDING US BACK BY FEEDING US UNIMPORTANT DRIBBLE,,,WE ARE AND SHOULD DEMAND BETTER!!!

SHOULD

for being original… haven't seen any reporst like this before… man this media outlet is GARBAGEEEEEEEEEEE

Give me a break. She is done. Obama 08

Guess what? Something you have neglected to mention here is that Obama has brought many more traditionally Republican states into play for the Dems this year, especially in the west. So, the standard math does not apply this election, folks!!!!!! He has changed the political landscape!!!!! Who else can do this???

GO OBAMA, we can hardly wait for you to be president!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last time I checked there were 50 states and Puerto Rico. This "POLL" was taken in 2 states Hillary won, Fl does not count. Three states do not decide Nov. Give it a rest CNN.

FL - They have their own "voting" issues. My mother resides in Jacksonville and a lot of voting machines were "broken" in her county. So any final results from this state is suspect after the Bush/Gore debacle.

One percentage point will be easy for Obama to overcome on McCain.
That battle has yet to begin. How many new voters have the republican's brought in? Have they expanded their focusus beyond their core states? Or are they depending on Rush Limbaugh winning over democrats? Those are real question for the General election.

Everyone make a note…any state that would support Clinton needs federal dollars for literacy programs…."lying" is not "misspeaking" - and taking every side of an issue is not "substance"

Obama has the support of Republicans (like me) Independents and literate Democrats….its time to unite the country - donate to Obama today - I did

*yawn*

Great, she polls stronger in those 3 states, and very much less in the other 47. 56% of the country thinks she is a liar and untrustworthy. If she steals the nomination from someone the people chose, there is no possible way she wins a seat on the local PTA, much less the White House - Democrats would revolt.

This isn't even news.

Barck Obama Is the Stronger Canidate she is just a Liar that will tell the American people anything to win

Wake up superdelegates and Democrats. Isn't the object to nominate someone who can win the Presidency in November? Obama can't win in the moderate States that Dems need to carry. Obamas' relation to Wright, Ayers and company and his ultra liberal ideas make him unelectable. Hillary is seen as more moderate in these States and can handily beat McCain. Are we going to make the same mistakes we have made in the past and nominate someone on the basis of ideology who doesn't have a chance to win? It's too important. Nominate Hillary.

By whose definition are they crucial?

We relied on Florida in 2004… and we all know how well that worked out for Democrats.

It's time to redraw the map, and Obama will do it!

They fail to poll the south where Obama has run very stong and McCain isn't as well liked. If Obama can turn the once red states in the south blue it doesn't matter about florida or ohio, and I think he can win in the south.

This should not be a surprise to anyone! A Candidate Obama will not get majoriy of blue-collar voters in swing-states and will alienate Florida and Michigan Dems. But I guess super delegates rather choose someone who will lose rather than be labeled a racist. Even if Hillary is not the nominee this time, in the future the party will need her to beat president McCain. BY that time, more skeletons WILL come out from Obama's closet. I hope people with common sense would realized that we do not even know him that well. Give it time, please!!! Don't be mindlessly following rhetoric about hope. The Clintons are not perfect, but when they were here, our country prospered.

With Hillary out of the race, Obama will do just fine with blue states….ALL of them, not just the "important" ones. Well if that isn't a statement of elitism.

Note to Hillary: Stop telling states they don't matter in the fall. if you steal the election, you'll need their votes dummy.

Polls have an extremely short shelf life and this poll won't mean anything in a few days. If the superdelegates paid attention to them, we would see a lot more shifting around as the winds of fortune favor either Clinton or Obama. But we are not seeing superdelegates base their support on what are arguably minor changes in the polls. The candidate with the highest favoribility ratings should win the nomination given that there are only minor differences on the issues between the candidates.

Hillary!

Barry will be President for only 4 years and the last 2 years he will be running for emperor of the world. Can you wait til 2012?

This is another fine example of CNN cherry picking facts. Despite several polls that suggest that Obama can win against McCain in several states where McCain would destroy Clinton i.e. Wisconsin, Colorado, CNN chooses two states where Hillary does better than Barack. What about the fact that if Hillary is the nominee states like California become vulnerable to the Republicans. Barack is more popular than Clinton in most states. That's what the primary has shown. Clinton has is only candidate with an unfavorability rating above 50%. It's lunacy too suggest that someone like that would do better in a general election. I suspect CNN has a vested interest in making this contest seem closer than it actually is. There is no credible argument for Hillary Clinton winning this nomination.

Keep it up Hillary you may yet be the complete downfall of Democracy as we know it, for those of us who think our current system is not truly Democracy there's a hope that you'll actually pull this off, maybe people will finally see that countries like Irag are becoming more Democratic than us. Nothing quite like breaking the system to bring things to a head.

Polls, Polls, Polls= New Hampshire

OBAMA- 291 DELEGATES TO WIN!

Clinton is up because the GOP hasn't started attacking her yet - just wait to see what happens after they begin their dirty games. Both Clinton & McCain have been tag-teaming against Obama and it has been working.

These polls never stay the same.

That´s to expect ! In Florida Obama was not campaigning and he lost in Ohio and Pennsylvania. A poll which is not representative for the US.

And here is the problem, Hillary is the one who can win in the states Democrats have to carry in Nov. and Obama will not be able to, he is on the way down now, and will once again carry the Democratic Party along with a loser.

Ron Paul's book is #1 on Amazon.
Ron Paul receives the most donations from our armed services than any of the candidates combined.
Ron Paul has broken the record for single day fundraising.
Ron Paul has a near flawless voting record, and votes the way he says he's going to.
Ron Paul balances his congressional budget and actually returns a portion every year.
Ron Paul has won countless debates.
Ron Paul actually studies foreign policy, and is considered an expert in economics.
Ron Paul voted to help pay for Rosa Parks medal out of his own pocket.
Ron Paul wants to bring our troops home to protect our own borders.
Ron Paul is the only candidate not involved in scandal (Keating 5, Rezco, Peter Paul anyone?)

The obamabots don't have anything to say on this link as Hillary is the only viable candidate who can win this election. Period!

She should do well, when no media can touch her, but unfortunately she will not get the nominee. Why cnn and other media will not ask hillary about peter paul, how about hillary's pastor? why the media is giving her a free ride?

Obama is NOT electable in the general, period! If you want a democrat in thew white it best if everyone unite behind Hillary. Obama is too much of a divider and has major bagage.

"It’s very hard to think of the electoral map, at least to a democratic victory, without Ohio and or Florida."

Yeah, Mr. Garin, it is if you play the same politics that have lost the Democrats the last two elections and five of the last seven… The Clinton Campaign has got to be one of the most ill-advised and flat-out stupidest campaigns ever run by a major candidate.

These polls expose the false narrative that casts Hillary as the "institutional" candidate and portrays Obama as the candidate bringing "new" support to the party. Obama's supporters are African-Americans, the young and the college-educated affluent which have all voted Democratic since the 60's and have never been stolen away by a Republican candidate. Hillary is the one who is bringing back the voters we have lost to Republicans in previous elections: the blue collar vote, the latino vote and the elderly vote.

Ronald Reagan gained the blue collar vote for the Republicans in 1980 and the only time the Democratic Party was able to gain them back decisively were in 1992 and 1996 during the Clinton years.

Hillary is the one bringing the new demographics back to the party, not Barack Obama.

Hillary/Obama '08 & '12!!!
Obama/Edwards '16 & '20!!!

C'mon Democrats, why settle for 8 years when you can have 16?

That's why people call those DEM "elitists", and they are indeed out of touch with voters.

Good Job, Clinton News Network … not a straight look at the truth, but you surely can spin it that way.

This match-up is silly right now. Obama never campaigned in both Ohio and Florida. His name was not in Ballot, whereas Clinton's name was in the ballot. McCain campaigned there. Obama campaigned heavilly in PA and he does well, though Clinton has a little edge because of establishment and name recognition. Obama will still win in PA when he wins nomination.
CNN, are only Ohio, PA and Florida only crucials states? Shame on you for always being this biased. You now become a real sorrugate for Clinton and McCain teamed up against Obama. You would be proved wrong and Obama will win the nomination and the presidency so you'all will be ashamed. Americans need a better news.

When we have just one canidate then these polls count the bitter clinton supporters will take care of their purse before they vote McCain

These latest polls prove what I have always thought of Sen. Obama:

1) Inspiring words not backed by REAL experience.

2) Still too young, but a formidable foe to Republican nominees in say 10/12 YEARS.

3) Not withstanding is (unproven claims) of being tough (coming from the south side of Chicago and all that nonsense), once confronted by the Republican Party machine, he would be SHREDDED TO PIECES.

4) Sen. Obama has NO FIRE IN THE BELLY.

5) By dumping Reverend Wright under the bus, he demonstrated of being a POLITICIAN just like any other, SO MUCH FOR BEING ""AN AGENT OF CHANGE""!!!!!

Obama wins all 3 in the general election. Obama will wipe McCain off the stage when they debate.

U guys are being naive in your reporting. It is understandable that these polls were taking at the heat of the former pastor's rantings. Yet obama did very well. That's bad news for Hillary because she will be heading for the rocks now that good Americans have realised the insignificance of the issue (which she doctored)

Also we are learning of the Clinton/Press cover up on many scandals. E.g:
Peter Paul vs Clinton (Corruption case in LA court)
Hillary's former pastor convicted and sentenced to 3 years jail term for sexually abusing a 7-year old girl! (lol! Clinton and sex abuse!)

This comment is awaiting moderation untill Chelsea Clinton's turn to become President! Thank you CNN!

When will people finally realize Clinton is the stronger candidate against McCain. The McCain camp and GOP are going to rip Obama apart with Wright and the weatherunderground. I think the weatherunderground connection is even more damaging than the Wright issue. Everyone knows about Hillary and her past. I hope the superdelegates realize this as well.

Most adults can listen to something and take away from it what they think is relative and true. But kids are different, they are like sponges and are learning all the time. That is why most kids have the same values as their parents. This and this alone is my problem with Mr. Obama and anyone else that would teach their kids to hate or think that they are owed something for acts that happened before they were born.

Just another reason why the Dems are going to lose in November when we nominate Obama.

Such a shame that the Democrats always care more about nominating the most liberally out of touch candidate than the one that can win. The Republicans hate McCain's views on the issues but they knew he could win so they nominated him.

Where do these polls come from?

She is correct she is stronger in those states than Obama. My question is, if it looks as though Obama can still win these states. Why would you take the nomination from him. For all that has been said about OH and FL he is only on point behind. And with the other states he puts in play wouldn't he win by a landslide. But I will give it to her in those states she has a greater chance of beating McCain.

My thought has always been the only way McCain can beat Obama if a large number Clinton supporters vote for McCain. And as they say if you can beat him use extortion. But Obama supporters you are just as bad but just at a lesser percentage according to some polls.

9 points that's it! We have seen what Sen. Clinton does with leads. She loses them. while Sen. Obama contiunes to make progress. SO these polls mean nothing. Ask Sen. CLinton? She was ahead in almost every state, and now look at her. She lost theDemocratic Nomination, when the polls where telling her she won.

Why is CNN so desperate to back Hillary?

This is telling me what I knew already, Clinton is the one for the job.

Clinton/Obama 08

Look at these Polls. The superdelegates have to decide if the NATION wants a democrat for President OR if they want to look good in the eyes of Obama.

Oh, please. After Obama gets done with McCain's stupid gas tax holiday proposal and his farcical "health care plan," the only folks who will vote for the fossil will be other dinosaurs.

The reason for McCain's high marks thus far are that the two Dems are too busy fighting each other to really take on Mr. One Hundred Years of War– who in the meantime appears to enjoy a complete respite from examination by the press, too. Undoubtedly because of his penchant for doling out barbecue to his slavishly devoted press retinue.

Hillary can. Obama can't. The idea is to pick a Democrat who can beat McCain in November. Not pick a Democrat who can win the Democratic primaries and LOSE in November against McCain! Wake up Obama supporters.. Yes SHE Will, No HE Can't!

Nobama = No Change You Can Count On

Hillary 08!

What is wrong with people in Ohio and PA?

Hillary campaigned for NAFTA and PNTR with China. Both Clintons received funding from Chinese lobbyists - you know, the place where all your jobs are going to?

Lastly, Bill Clinton and Mark Penn were on Columbia's payroll! Bill received $800K for goodness sakes! But yet Hillary says she is against Columbia Free Trade deal?

The rural white folks in Ohio and PA must like being "bitter".

Re-polling folks now in only selected "swing" states only plays right into the Republican plan that won in 2004. The sheer number of Democratic and Independent voters wiling to support a Democrat in the general election is larger than the Republican voter base, make no mistake about it. Polls don't reflect this.

Obama is no longer a viable candidate!

We need a President who has the strength to fight for ALL the American People in our Great Nation!

We are looking forward to years of Peace, Prosperity and a balanced budget!

Hillary 08

I really don't believe this poll. Sorry but how can people believe Hillary after the Bosnia sniper fire incident and claiming she brought Peace to Northern Ireland. She is absurd

Her poll gain is like a iceberg when the sun raise from republican heat ,it will melt and become water.So SD,wait until the sun raise we will see weather her poll will stand,the republican are just waiting,she has a lot of package to be used against her watch out.Republican give us Hillary.

COME ON CNN STOP BEING BIASED.
PUT IT RIGHT ON YOUR FRONT PAGE
Democratic National Committee member John Patrick, a 31-year member of the United Steelworkers union and vice president of the Texas AFL-CIO, officially announced his support for Barack Obama Thursday. The nod is Obama’s second superdelegate endorsement of the day.
THAK YOU.

CNN - when will you stop your "selective broadcasting" ??Why you so inclined on titles on the political ticker which give the public the notion that Obama does not stand a chance??
Instead why not focus on the lies that Billary "rotten" Clinton has built her empire on? Which ones? How about Peter Paul or her child molestor pastor for a start?
I had so much respect for you guys - you proved to be worse than FOX. Sad, very sad !

Wait till the primaries are over in NC !!
Obama 08

You mean those big democratic states?
Oh please once this slug feast for the nomination is finally over in June the polls will spin out of the pollers control. You don't even know where this fight to the white house will end up.
Hillary is fighting for nothing but her own vanity. While raising millions of dollars to do so. Sad how many school books or homes in New Orleans could have been built with theses donations to a lost cause.

Of course… She IS the stronger candidate!

These arguments are flawed. In all reality, any state that can be won by a Democrat will in all likelihood be won by a Democrat. We have to get the party back together first, though.

I think Hillary will win against McCain, Obama MAYBE but doubtful

so do we relly want to take a chance on losing the election on a

maybe? In 4 or 8 years Obama may be ready, and the the problems

he is having may be long gone. We cannot loose this election.

Isn't the whole idea of this campign, to pick the person that is best to win the white house???? And if the dems really want the white house back…..LOOK AT THE POLLS, AND GET BEYOND THE ELISTE LOVE FOR OBAMA and choose the person that can….CLINTON

Please don't nag the Clinton Supporters on, now well get thos very well writen bloggs of:

go Hillary go go go

or

win Hillary yes win win go go run run go go go

please dont nag them on, everybody knows SHE CAN NOT WIN, it is time to put them out of their misery and admit that Hillary LOST

Yeah right, like the republican machine will allow all the votes for a democrat to even be counted in Florida or Ohio come November… I would be shocked if a democrat were able to win these two states which had significant voter fraud in the last two presidential elections.

As an Independent voter with no party loyalty I understand those poll numbers. I'd prefer Sen. Clinton over Sen. McCain. But give me Sen. Obama against Sen. McCain and my vote for McCain is really a vote against Obama. Obama is not the person for the job at this time.

Enough Said…Obama..DROP OUT!

Go HIllary!
GIven enough time we will learn more and more about Obama and this can only help Hillary. I can not wait to see and hear the grovelling done by the turncoats that owe their careers to the Clintons, when she wins. It will only serve them right!. Most of us have had enough of the inefficient way that our candidate is chosen and with the influence excerted by the press. This has been an eye opener to a lot of people. Too many pundits sang the praises of Obama without knowing anything about him or his wife (her "American" comment is sickening). Too many "coronation" remarks about Hillary when the race was just beginning. Too many Americans listened to the drivil and it looks like we have to put up with the news media's choice. I hope that some of the uncommitted voters and delegates have enough nerve to vote for Hillary regardless of the media's wishes.

We wont get to see will we?

November is a long ways off. Mccain is not going to win no matter what!

By here reckoning, keep in mind the small states don't matter…….

So what? Obama beats McCain in Michigan and Wisconsin, equaling Florida's 27 electorals…Clinton can't do that. Obama can run a campaign in all 50 states..in Oregon, Colorado, New Mexico, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Michigan, North and South Carolina. Clinton's strategy rests on the same tired old battles for Ohio and Florida. Obama is tied or barely trailing in these two crucial states, but he puts so many more in play. He is clearly the nominee to win in November.

Obama is the big picture. Lets take this fight to Republicans across the nation.

We > She
Yes we can.
O8ama

She's such a phony.

We need a President who doesn't just "understand" our challenges and hardships; we need a President who has LIVED those hardships.

Obama '08

blah blah blah……sHE WON'T BE THE nOMINEE SO WHO CARES?!!!

That's my girl!

Hillary till 2016

While they are competing, I believe they are both on the same ticket. I strongly believe that there is an agreement under the table for a dream ticket with Obama on top. Clinton targeting bigger cities and Obama all others.

I doubt this poll takes into account all of the independents and republicans willing to vote for Obama. So for those that say if Clinton doesn't get the nomination, you're replaced by an independent or republican or both.

This is a Useless Argument… and for the record this poll is based on a 2:1 ratio with the candidates. If the nominee matches up directly against Mccain, its a no brainer that supporters of the other candidate will boost the numbers up.

This does not mean Obama will not win these states. The Clintons love to use polls to plead their case and you hear them flaunting polls anytime they favor Clinton. But when they favor Obama their silence is deadly. These polls go back and forth and Obama's trends will begin to rise once again over the weekend. Mark my words.

This is comparing apples to oranges. Whoever is the Dem Nominee will beat McCain, lets be realistic.

If I hear one more of her speeches where she starts.."Well, you know (both hand on mic), alot of folks…." I will Barf.

HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This doesn't matter. Polls in this election have been terrible when the primary is just a week away. The general election is MONTHS away.
Obama provides a much stronger contrast to "100 years" McCain than Hillary does, which is one reason that he will get the support of more independents.

Sean, no we won't come back together!!! Obama wins the nomination, McCain wins the General!!! There is no way we will vote for Obama!!!!

This is why we will lose in November if Obama is the nominee. He can not carry the big blue states that are necessary to win. If the super delegates give the White House to the Gop, I'm going to be really pissed.

I read somewhere that McCain can't win against either Hillary or Barak, because the electoral college votes simply aren't going to add up for him.

So forget about the false issue of "electability": Vote for the Democrat you believe in!

P.S. - While you're at it, forget about race or gender. This race shouldn't be about either of those, and if it is, then you're biased!

Go Hillary
Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

What the heck is "Quinnipiac University polls"? Clintons had paied them to say this?

Those are only polls not real vote result… Let and see this coming Tuesday… She is going back home to NY….
Obama 08

These polls are a bunch of crap!

Obama is going for the 50-state - some thing Bill Clinton wouldn't do and we lost points!

Hillary can't beat Obama - so how will she beat Mc Cain!

Ha! We are all Democrats and we hate each other, that's the saddest thing.

Rudy Giuliani and Senator Clinton were leading all summer long last year, but it is a different history right now. Who can believe this poll before six more months to go? The only one best word that i can think of regarding this poll is "Irrelvance"

bull………………………..

Thats only because the media is so bias and is not exosing sen. Clintons lies and scandels and what about her pastor? both of them? any who this is not the GE peole are going to change their minds but the media is helping Clinton thats why she is ahead…. BE FAIR MEDIA CNN CNN CNN …. at least you

I don't know why everyone keeps talki
