Obama Rising

Obama has that rarest of rare qualities in a politician : likability. It helps that his message and presence is overwhelmingly a 'can-do' positive one.

If it turns out to be Obama vs. McCain, I think we're looking at Clinton vs. Dole, part deux.

The trend lines show Obama surging in most Super Tuesday states. Recent polls show him getting inside the margin of error in the Super Tuesday states techs said Billary was going to blow him out in.
 
I pray to god Hillary doesn't take CA. As a resident of Cali, that would seriously annoy me. I hope everyone is voting for Obama.

I found Dick Morris had some interesting polling data on the FL primary, and both parts of it will affect Super Tuesday.

1. Morris says Obama actually won a majority of votes cast on the FL primary day beating HRC. This demonstrates the huge surge Obama got after SC and Billary's campaign antics there.

2. HRC won because of "early voting". Those people, even if so inclined, could not change their votes to account for recent campaign developments. So it may come down to how many voters in Super Tuesdays election cast their ballots early. The more, the better for HRC. Obviously, early voting benefits the frontrunner.

most if not all super tuesday states have less or no early voting (other than standard need based absentee ballots) than Florida

So far McCain gives me little reason to be optimistic about that. His attacks on Romney strike me Clintonian. Even commentators are annoyed by his mis-representations and distortions.

I suppose that could change if/when he starts campaigning against Obama. There are so many REAL policy differences I see no need whatsoever for any distortions.

HeHe.
Its their daily tracking poll which has a very limited sample.
Look back and you will see that this poll has great variation.
But if people want to think Hillary is the underdog, thats cool.
Imagine how good she will look when she takes 8 out of the top 11 Super Tuesday primaries.
 
techs, I have a legitimate question for you. You seem to be completely unwilling to accept any statement/data/opinion as being valid that disagrees with the theory "Hillary Clinton is the most popular candidate and will win by a landslide in every primary". Why is this?

+- 3% is the maximum margin of sampling error. The poll itself included 1286 voters which is much larger than most polls put out recently. What the heck are you talking about.
 
Ah, techs. The fall from grace will be fast and very painful.

I hope you have a few reality distortion pills remaining. You're gonna need 'em :laugh:
