McCain Leads Obama and Clinton
If the generation elections for the presidency were held today, Senator John McCain would beat both Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Zogby included Ralph Nader in its poll, and Nader is - at this moment - doing quite well. McCain, Clinton, Nader gives 45%, 39%, 6% (11% not sure). McCain, Obama, Nader gives 44%, 39%, 5% (11% not sure).
Jerome Armstrong comments: “The only thing to take solace in is that McCain isn’t breaking out above 50 percent.”
I agree, however, with Glenn Reynolds. It seems to me that, although it’s clear that McCain is a strong national candidate, the poll is indicative of the state the Democratic Party is in right now. It’s divided and Clinton and Obama are constantly attacking each other. And when they don’t attack each other, we see yet another controversy surfacing, which does a great deal of damage as well.
But the elections are held in November. There’s a lot of time for the Democrats to turn this trend around. And my guess is that they will, at least in so far that it’ll be a very close race. And yes, the Democratic nominee is still the slight favorite in November; the times are in the Democrats’ advantage.










Yup. Nader won’t get 6%. He won’t get 3%. He’ll be lucky to get more than a fraction of a percent in any state where the outcome is in doubt. Look at past elections’ state-by-state results and you’ll see this. He’ll get all his November numbers in states where the democrat is comfortably enough ahead to allow folks to choose Nader for sh!ts and giggles, like Vermont and Massachusetts. So he ends up with maybe 2 or 3%, but he never gets that in a state where the race is close. People answer polls to express pique. IOW, what these polls show isn’t even really a trend. It’s transient static.

Five more years? Well, if it does go to heck in Iraq it will be McCain’s pro-life hiney…
If this is true in Nov., Obama will be there to pick up the pieces in ‘2012. Mccain will be dealing with a collapsing economy (which he admits is not his issue) and a military that can no longer deal with the entanglements we are already involved in.
I actually think that there will be a different polling result once the war over the Democratic nominee is over. The party is not united against McCain at this point. By November, people will be voting their wallets.
following your premise Kim, same is true no matter who holds the office next round.
DON’T BE DUPED!!!
Large numbers of Republicans have been voting for Barack Obama in the DEMOCRATIC primaries, and caucuses. Because they feel he would be a weaker opponent against John McCain. And because they feel that a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket would be unbeatable. And also because with a Clinton and Obama ticket you are almost 100% certain to get quality, affordable universal health care very soon.
But first, all of you have to make certain that Hillary Clinton takes the democratic nomination and then the Whitehouse. NOW! is the time. THIS! is the moment you have all been working, and waiting for. You can do this America. “Carpe diem” (harvest the day).
I think Hillary Clinton see’s a beautiful world of plenty, and comfort for all. She is a woman, and a mother. And it’s time America. Do this for your-self, and your children’s future. You will have to work together on this and be aggressive, relentless, and creative. Americans face an even worse catastrophe ahead than the one you are living through now.
You see, the medical and insurance industry mostly support the republicans with the money they ripped off from you. And they don’t want you to have quality, affordable universal health care. They want to be able to continue to rip you off, and kill you and your children by continuing to deny you life saving medical care that you have already paid for. So they can continue to make more immoral profits for them-self.
Hillary Clinton has actually won by much larger margins than the vote totals showed. And lost by much smaller vote margins than the vote totals showed. Her delegate count is actually much higher than it shows. And higher than Obama’s. HILLARY CLINTON IS ALREADY THE TRUE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE!
As much as 30% of Obama’s primary, and caucus votes are Republicans trying to choose the weakest democratic candidate for McCain to run against. These Republicans have been gaming the caucuses where it is easier to vote cheat. This is why Obama has not been able to win the BIG! states primaries. Even with Republican vote cheating help.
Hillary Clinton has been out manned, out gunned, and out spent 2 and 3 to 1. Yet Obama has only been able to manage a very tenuous, and questionable tie with Hillary Clinton.
If Obama is the democratic nominee for the national election in November he will be slaughtered. Because the Republican vote cheating help will suddenly evaporate. All of this vote fraud and republican manipulation has made Obama falsely look like a much stronger candidate than he really is. YOUNG PEOPLE. DON’T BE DUPED! Think about it. You have the most to lose.
The democratic party needs to fix this outrage. I suggest a Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama ticket now! Everyone needs to throw all your support to Hillary Clinton NOW! So you can end this outrage against YOU the voter, and against democracy.
I think Barack Obama has a once in a life time chance to make the ultimate historic gesture for unity, and change in America by accepting Hillary Clinton’s offer as running mate. Such an act now would for ever seal Barack Obama’s place at the top of the list of Americas all time great leaders, and unifiers for all of history. But the time to act is soon.
The democratic party, and the super-delegates have a decision to make. Are the democrats, and the democratic party going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee to fight for the American people. Or are the republicans going to choose the DEMOCRATIC party nominee through vote fraud, and gaming the DEMOCRATIC party primaries, and caucuses.
Fortunately the Clinton’s have been able to hold on against this fraudulent outrage with those repeated dramatic comebacks of Hillary Clinton’s. Only the Clinton’s are that resourceful, and strong. Hillary Clinton is your NOMINEE. They are the best I have ever seen.
