The Clinton-Obama race is tied at 41% each. They report 14% undecided. Could it be possible that the democratic party can move past the moribund narrative of the Vietnam Era? I still have a sinking feeling that Hillary will manipulate the convention and try to steal the nomination using super-delegates and we get stuck with another re-hash on the same tired old bullshit in the November election. Please god send us anyone but Hillary…
CBS Poll: Clinton, Obama Tied, McCain Has Big Lead Among Republicans; Also, Most Americans Think Economy Is In Recession – CBS News
With only one full day remaining before voters in more than 20 states head to the polls on Super Tuesday, the races for the Democratic and Republican nominations could not be more different, a new CBS News/New York Times poll finds.Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are running neck-and-neck among Democratic primary voters, while John McCain appears to have solidified his status as the Republican Party’s front-runner, opening up a wide margin over his nearest rival for the GOP nomination, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.
John McCain seems to have firmed up his lead over the remaining GOP hangers-on. The Unholy Trinity of greater Wignuttia (Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and Laura Ingraham) must be really pissed off about right now. Let me enjoy the Malkinfreude of it all for a few minutes.
UPDATE:
Others are less than convinced this will end up as an Obama victory. Also this nugget is buried in the text of the CBS Poll story:
The picture in the states voting on Super Tuesday is not nearly as close as the overall picture and offers some good news for Clinton. Among voters in those states, she leads Obama, 49 percent to 31 percent, with 16 percent still undecided.
