Obama Takes Lead Over Clinton In Latest Polls
Posted by Brian
Not that the polls have been the most accurate measuring sticks this primary season, it is still worth noting that in the latest Rueters/C-Span poll, Barack Obama has taken a 2 Point lead over Hilary Clinton in California. This is significant because just a few weeks ago, Clinton was ahead by double digits.
In California, Obama gained two points on Clinton overnight to lead 46 percent to 40 percent, with a margin of error of 3.2 percentage points. Obama wiped out a 1-point Clinton advantage in Missouri to take a 47 percent to 42 percent lead, with a margin of error of 3.4 percentage points.
“The momentum is with Obama,” said pollster John Zogby. “If this trend continues it could be a very big night for him.”
New Hampshire taught us not to get too excited by what these polls predict, but Tuesday is going to be a huge day. I am sure Bill Clinton couldn’t sleep last night as he prepared some ridiculous comments for today that he will apologize for tomorrow and say he was misunderstood. If you are in one of the 22 states involved in Super Tuesday, make sure you get out and have your vote count. Probably for the first time ever, every vote will count.
