As most of us realized long ago, Obama is a better general candidate than Hilary
- Obama 48%, McCain 41%
- Clinton 46%, McCain 46%
Read it to figure it out.
The best thing I saw last week.
Oh yeah, dude - you're going to be so sorry you ever gave me posting rights!
I am making it my personal mission to systematically dismantle the horrifying psuedo-intellectualism that serves as the very framework for this site. Which I will fulfill just as soon as I can figure out how to use words with fewer syllables.
So sad. At last mittmentum looks like joementum.
We'll all miss Mittens!
Since the election last night, Obama's campaign has been raising a great deal of cash from small donors.
Hilary, on the other hand, just loaned herself $5 million.
How much cash has Obama raised? Well, this graphic says it all:
Over 5 million? I'd be interested to see the total number of contributors...but in any case, with over $30 million in contributions in January, he's in excellent shape.
There were no knockout punches but overall, I think last night helps Obama, especially with his victory in Missouri. Each week his candidacy lives is another week Clinton's argument weakens.
In many of the states Clinton won, Obama had surged from far behind to narrow the gap in the days before Super Tuesday. Her ability to hold off his charge brought a sense of relief to her campaign advisers, but the likelihood that neither would emerge with a significant advantage in delegates was a sign that their roller-coaster competition would continue.
The DC/VA/MD primary is coming up next Tuesday...we'll see how the battle holds up.
Here are the latest polls across the board.
Clinton appears to be leading primaries in most states, with 2-4 exceptions. On the caucus side, Obama is rumored to be doing better.
California seems to be trending heavily Hilary, at least according to SurveyUSA.
Overall, a fairly mixed bag, with Obama still an underdog. We'll see how it plays out.
