While the words that came from Wright's mouth were very disturbing, those words were Wright's words, not Obama's. The association there is a bit scary.
On the other hand, Clinton's words aobut Bosnia were her own, and they were out right lies. I find that very scary.

Why don't you do a poll now that oversamples the white blue collar population or white progressive women? It does not seem fair to produce a poll like this and then announce to everyone that Clinton is the one who has been hurt by all of the recent controversy with Obama's pastor. The reason I don't think it seems fair is because you oversampled the African-American population which you in the media are always saying gives Obama an advantage in anything. I understand that you feel you need to do that about the pastor situation, but in terms of bragging now to all the news shows and media outlets how Clinton's positive views are so low and her negative views are so high from the sampling of your poll, that is what I have a problem with. Why wasn't the fact that you oversampled the African-American population in the reports being given on television last night by Chris Matthews or this morning on Morning Joe? I just feel the pastor problem is probably still on the minds of several groups, including the blue collar worker, the white progressive woman, or the average middle-class person. I may be wrong, but it would only be fair to do the same type of poll again with an oversampling of these core groups if that was the whole idea in the first place for doing such a poll.

I am undecided because both parties haven't been totally honest so its hard to decide..Do we chose Clinton (A person that is doing and saying what ever she feels is necessary to win) or Obama (A person that has little experience and actually is falling into the trap of old politics) very hard to decide all I know is that I will not vote for Mccain.

I think these popularity polls would go "dancing with the stars" in all directions if Obama would select an important clinton supporter or if clinton would select an obama person as their V.P. candidate. I lke clinton but if obama names Biden or dodd or edwards i could go for the ticket. My first vote was for Truman and the things that were being said about him makes clinton look like choir girl. matbe people dont like her as aperson but she is a hell of a fighter and workerand I would like her to represent me in a fight or argument. with all the crap being heaped on her by the media she is still in even status with obama and mccain in the polls. let the battle continue until june.may the strongest candidate win.

As the presumptive frontrunner Hillary started with the support of the majority of Democrats. Obama had to earn his supporters one by one;
his made a conscious decision to chose him over her. They are converts with the loyalty converts usually show. Many of her followers, on the other hand, have not necessarily made a similar conscious decision and therefore are more open to considering Obama.

I don't care what skeletons of little merit are in Obama's closet. They don't begin to compare to what Clinton is hiding nor is Obama teaming up with the scum associated with Scaife in order to trash his opponent.

I don't want four more years of Bush and I will not vote for Clinton if she is nominated (Glass-Stegall repeal and NAFTA are bitter memories) nor will I vote for McCain.

Those Clinton numbers probably reflect her "win at all costs" mentality/sense of entitlement/constant rationalizing and increasing appearance of an inability to tell the truth. To be clear, Obama has "Gone Negative" as well at times (the Wal-Mart comment at the debate comes to mind), but not to the same extent as the Clinton "spin machine" where one hand, the only states that count are the ones with primaries and are not predominantly Black and are already "Blue" and can be easily expected for a Democrat to win, while on the other hand, Michigan and Florida voters are so very "disenfranchised" that a change in the PRE-ESTABLISHED RULES is vital.

It's appauling that Americans don't wake up and smell the coffee. This poll shows Obama as the great uniter still. I can't imagin how someone who sat in a congretion under Rev. Wright for 20years, was married by him, and had his kids baptized by him, could possible unite this country. Obama can do damage control all he wants, but you cannot change the fact he was under this man's leadership for 20 years. If you didn't agree with what someone had to say, you wouldn't sit and listen to it for 20 years, simple as that. Obama's "mentor" spews antiAmerican and racist speach. Uniters normally aren't people who call a known racist and anti-American person be their "mentor". This country will get nowhere by oppressing ourselves which is what people like Rev.Wright do. And it all comes back to Obama's 20 year relationship with him. I wanted to believe in Obama as much as anyone else but the problem is his history with this man and church, and his actions. He gives speaches on how the wealthy need to give to the poor. His tax return indicates he: a-barely gives for his income level and b-doens't even give to the poor at that. His largest donations were to Rev. Wright's church, a dance compnay and the Congressional Black Caucus! He and his wife portray this history of struggle. Their lowest joint income was $240,000! That's about $200,000 above the average American... oh but they couldn't pay their student loans... right... They are all liars! and they are fooling the uninformed American.

Hillary Clinton has been doing nothing but attacking Obama with her negative and divisive comments from free-trade to Rev. Wright. Americans are tired of this type of old politics and that's why she is becoming less electable. All Hillary cares about is getting elected by hook or crook...mostly by crook. She is dividing the party and at the end will divide the country as well. This is the very reason why many young people are baking Obama. He is the only one who can bring people together, regardles of the party.

Politicians make all these mythical promises to the voters and only deliver on about 5 percent. On the other hand they deliver 90 percent to the businesses and individuals that get them elected.
Let's get back to our economy, bringing the troops home, medical insurance, oil and gas prices and finally a criminal investigation into Bush, Cheney and Rove's criminal acts for the last eight years.
I would also like to know why we even spend the tax payers money on the Presidential Election? Everyone knows the popular vote has no meaning anymore. The Electoriate College, State Delegates and now we have "Super" Delegates to decide who is or isn't President.

“…but he's survived ... for now.” That ranks right up there with “…as far as I know.” and seems to reflect a general bias towards Clinton. Please explain what numbers in the data support your contention that “voters still would like to know more about Obama”. I find it amazing that you can interpret quantitative data like poll numbers to represent anything other than the poll question asked. You might as well be reading tea leaves. “…that is both an opportunity and a potential obstacle.”, so you are inferring that the more people learn about Obama, the more his unfavorable number will go up? Again, you seem to be pursuing an agenda that is not aligned with the polling data. In short, I’m saying that rather than tell readers what their interpretations of the data should be based on your own bias, how about leaving that up to them?

Nothing has changed, and no one cares, unless there is something in it for them. The important issues get a slight mention, while the candidates play there little child games, of tattle tailing on one another.
Stop it!Tell us what plans you have for the things that are on the minds, and hearts of the majority of the people in the world.
Stop fighting, and start talking, like the mature humans we should be.
Stop raping our children, our land, and our hard working people. Remember the phrase: " For every action, there's a reaction." We are now living in the reaction's all the bad decisions.
Freeze the housing crises, anyone in trouble pay principal only, or interest only.Until we are stable again. Make the people who made all the money, accountable for their greed. Re-negotiate the loans to meet the income, and means of the family, but not the people who purchased houses for quick profit, or speculation.
Bring back the WPA, and put people to work ( in Lew of handing out free money for doing nothing.) to rebuild our infrastructure, like sewerage treatment plants, that are dumping millions of gallons of raw sewerage in our oceans. Fix the bridges that are getting ready to collapse. Build a fresh water network to channel water from known flood regions to drought areas.
Close the boarders, and adopt the thumb print identification, for everyone, as they do in California this technology to access the Internet, so we can identify stalkers, hackers, and scammers.
These are a few of the things that should be implemented. No one wants Big Brother,but as the world shrinks and bad people continue to get away with crime's. A high tech policing policy is needed.

Politically aroused, Atlanta, Georgia — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 12:20:55 GMT

I'm not surprised that all the bickering is hurting Hillary more. It was only a matter of time before people realised who was the main cause of the disunity in the Democratic party. Her "win-at-all-costs strategy which included just stopping short of endorsing John McCain, (she said both her and JOHN McCAIN would be ready on day 1-Obama wouldn't thereby bolstering a Republican at the expense of a fellow Democrat), then soliciting Obama as a vice-presidential running mate (Mr. "not ready on day 1") rightfully made her come out looking like the most confused and disoriented of the bunch. I understand that in a political campaign things get said and done by aides and supporters that aren't "necessarily" supported by their respective candidates, and therefore we can't hold the candidates directly responsible for them, (although it's easier to do so if they don't seek immediately to denounce and distance themselves from the remarks), however things said and done by the candidates are their responsibility, thus they can be held directly responsible for those. If Hillary feels so confident about a John McCain presidency then perhaps she doesn't really care about ending the war in Iraq, reforming health care, or ending tax cuts for big business/ wealthy 1 percenter's- things that define today's Democrats. This now raises the question of her dedication to the party for it seems that for Hillary it's more important that Hillary wins in November than it is that the Democratic party wins in November. I've never heard of a Republican candidate supporting a Democratic candidate at the expense of a fellow Republican (even Romney and Huckabee didn't go that far).

I finally heard the ENTIRE speech given by Rev. Wright and just as I suspected, the "sound bites" that have been floating around the internet and played and replayed on the news were taken out of context. You need to hear the entire speech in order to make an informed decision. There was a message in that sermon that EVERYONE should hear. I happen to agree with quite a few of the things that Rev. Wright said during that sermon, one of which--and he was quoting someone else when he said that America's chickens have come home to roost--is the fact that America has ALWAYS done dirt on foreign soil in order to have the almighty buck go the way they want it. WE created Osama Bin Laden when we helped him and his rebels fight in Afghanastan against the Russians during the cold war, or did we forget that? Would it also surprise people to know that those caves we "lost him in" when we invaded Afghanastan "looking" for him, we helped HIM and his rebels DIG those freaking caves. So you mean to tell me we can't find him in caves our troops helped him dig???? WTF??? So yeah, when you do dirt, you will eventually get dirty.

Read all of this before you judge it please.

The negatives on Obama involve patriotism and it just isn't a big issue to his base, blacks will understandably support him no matter what and a generation of young people who have been raised without a structured dogma of patriotism (no pledge of alligence in their schools, etc)don't see it as all that important.

Thus the negatives caused by Obama's radical pastor will not appear until the general electon when the stark difference between the appearance of questionable patriotism (rightly or wrongly) of Obama is compared to the extreme patriotism of McCain in third party ads.

The same is true of Obama appearing to be from the extreme far left. No big deal now, but a biggie in the general election. Presidents are always from a spot closer to center...extreme left or right never get the big chair.

Obama will suffer greatly under those conditions, the big blocks of the black and the young voters will just not be enough to win.

Sadly, we will see the republicans win if things don't change.

If Hillary Clinton did not have the long history of polarizing people, which I do not believe is entirely her fault, I would vote for her. But the fact is that the mere mention of her name causes so many people I know to lose their good sense to raw negative emotion. I cannot deliberately vote for another several years of the type of polarization the nation experienced when Bill was president, and that is what I fear with a Hillary presidency. Perhaps the same thing would happen if Barack or McCain were elected, but I am certain it would if Hillary were the next president.

Polls are meaningless. A great many voters will mouth the politically correct phrases -- but VOTE AGAINST OBAMA in November. Obama has shown himself a Closet Racist -- and people do have long memories -- in spite of what newscasters and pollsters would have us believe.

Obama CAN'T win this election, nor will he win in 2012, 2016 or even 2020. That Wright fiasco can properly be compared to a White presidential candidate hobnobbing with the local Klan's chief Wizzard and attending monthly Klan Meetings.

Also a lot of Americans will recall those many politicians, public figures -- hounded out of office, forced to resign or lose their jobs -- because of a perceived slight, insult or joke as offensive to Blacks. In other words, PAYBACK TIME! Between these various but very real factors, Obama will not win! His reputation as both a Liar and Closet Racist having been ensured.

As to Lying Hillary -- Hillary, like hubby Bill, is a pathological liar who would force her daughter to whore for a Black inner-city pimp if it would gain the White House for Hillary. With her desperate lying trying to regain public approval -- she simply comes off as the typical frustrated bitch she is.

NBC-WSJ poll: New Clinton lows

C A, Tuscaloosa, AL — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 12:45:58 GMT

Obama pretty well maintained his ratings because he confronted the Rev. Wright issue head-on. He did so with a well received speech and has not ducked questions about this issue. He condemned Wright's comments but would not throw the man under the bus for making some terrible comments and mistakes. People appreciated that. The fact that someone can be constructively criticized yet also noted and forgiven for their good works. "That is how you bring people together"!! If a person has good in them along with some bad you don't ostracize them. You stick with them and show them the light and hope they can grow. If not then they will do themselves in. Obama knows this and has this knoeldge and sensitivity that you must give people the opportunity to change their ways or to make things better then what they were. Imagine if any voter or blogger here had never been forgiven and/or given another opportunity to redeem themselves. It would be a sad world indeed.

Hillary on the other hand continues to embellish her background. She won't meet controversy head-on but rather tries to skirt around those negative issues that she is confronted with. Her camp attacked a well liked person in Bill Richardson when Carvelle called him a Judas, and once again Bill is hurting her campiagn more so then helping it. Obama makes errors, he is human, but he always seems to come back with honesty and always meets the challenges head-on without skirting the issues or taking responsibility for miscues. Hillary on the other hand attempts to avoid her errors or to sidestep them or to excuse them with comments that make the situation worse. There are many articles and comments out there that show Hillary has a problem (past and present) with sharing the truth or speaking directly and openly about many issues and her negatives are reflecting this.

Hillary is her own worst enemy. Proof of this has been the last several days where Obama remains on the sidelines in the Virgin Islands leaving Hillary and her camp all to their own on the campaign trail. Yet even in his absence Hillary could not take advantage. She continued to attack Obama with a prepared coment about Rev. Wright, and failed to be honest on a the stupid but showing issue of Bosnia. And Bill kept putting his foot in his mouth.

No wonder her negatives have gone up and her positives down.

Lori, Tequesta, FL — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 12:47:11 GMT

The double standard being applied to Obama is deafening in this election. I understand that Wrights comments were awful, but they were not Obama's comments. In Hillary's case, she has pushed her experience as the mainstay of her campaign and the main reason she should win out over Obama. She has also denegrated him for "plagerizing" his "just words" speech. She has rode him into the ground on the Rev Wright issue. Yet in her camp, she has out and out lied about her experience in Bosnia and Ireland, repeatedly, and calls it just a mistake. One time, shame on you , two times (or more in her case), shame on the rest of us. If she is going to hold Obama to such a high standard about the honesty of his words....well, she can't just yell "misspoke" when she repeatedly chooses to misspeak over and over again. Then there is the Geraldine Ferraro comparison. Hillary's comments were simply that she didn't agree with Ferraro's statements. She didn't disown her or disassociate with her, yet that is what she calls Obama to do in the case of his Pastor. On top of that, at least we have not heard Wright on every news channel he could get on spewing new comments about how he didn't regret any of what he said or claiming victim himself, which is what Ferraro did.

Get over it Clintons, and yes, they are both running. This election is just a backwards way for Bill to get back in the White House. I heard a Hillary supporter on MSNBC get all upset when someone made a comment about the "Clinton's" running, he said "the Clinton's are not running, Hillary is!" Then the next day on MSNBC there is a spot of Bill campaining, he says in regards to dropping out of the race "many people have come up to me and said Bill, don't quit, I tell them we won't, unless you haven't noticed we don't have much quit in our family." Sounds like a Obama is running against both of them to me, right out of Bill's mouth. But, oh yeah, I forgot, it's okay to say if the Clinton's say it...just not the rest of the world. Like I said, double standard, period.

I disagree, polls are often wrong as this one is. Obama sat under a racist and was so impressed with his teachings that he wrote a book using much of what Wright said, even th etitle was a direct quote from Wright. The reason it seems Hillary has taken a bigger hit is this is the first big blow of behind the phony facade of Obama and he hasn't been around the political media battlefied as much as Hillary has. Ths is just the beginning of finding out more about the racist background of Obama and his fans are not used to it but that will soon change as we gather more info. We know Hillary is a media whorehound and will say anything to get what she wants so overstating her Bosnia trip was an attempt to make herself look "heroic" in teh face of danger.

Apparently, Mrs. Clinton has forgotten that "Thou Shall Not Lie" is one of the 10 Commandments and her misspoken statements are still a lie by today's standards. Now, the pot is calling the kettle black because according to White House records, the Clinton's invited the now infamous Rev. Wright to counsel Bill Clinton during the Monica Lewinsky drama. I guess the Rev. was good enough to counsel the "I didn't have sex with that woman President" but his reputation is now a topic for her to condemn Mr. Obama about. Since his statements are at least 5 or more years old and based on his own ignorance, I don't see Mrs. Clinton's or Mr. McCain's pastors receiving such scrutiny as to their statements or mistatements as Mr. Obama's former pastor. Right is Right! If you are going to hold one man accountable for the misstatements of another, let's open up the vaults for the other campaign participants' pastors as well. It is a double standard that the media (TV, Radio and Newspapers combined) has created in an already divisive nation of racists.

This is a direct contradiction of several other recent polls, which makes me wonder whose got a horse in the race. Recent poll showed Hillary Clinton coming in more favorably than Obama, this after his "typical white person" remark on radio. Only yesterday a poll released saying if Clinton was not the nominee, 28% of her supporters would vote for McCain; if Obama was not the nominee, 19% of his supporters would vote for McCain. Now, who do you think the Democratic Party should back? The candidate who will lose them only 19% of their independents or 28% of their independents? Sounds to me like if they make Obama the nominee, McCain will have a much better chance of winning: McCain believes it, too, as he tries to attack Obama and ignore Clinton in order to get people used to the slate he wants to see. Is that what the media is doing as well?

I know i am going to be considered unpatriotic which is the new term if you do not agree with the status quo but i think we have some real issues that no one is looking at. Employment, poverty h.i.v. I almost dispise Hillary Clinton she has caused this to be one of the most devisive and underhanded races to ever be and they say it is always like this i do not beleive it . You all know your self if the situation was reversed meaning she had more pledge delegates she would be out . I know what is going to happen they are going to keep this up until everyone get sick of it or give it to her or John Mcain wins guess what we all loose no matter who wins. You all have disefranchise as you call it a new generation great. I for one will never vote again and neither will a great number of people i know since it does not matter how. I feel sorry for Obama he had the audacity to hope in this country. I see why his pastor feels this way look at how we do thing and the sad thing is you know it and do not care. I am afraid we all loose as i said, Bravo you have suceeded once agin only this time as never befor to disenfranchise blacks all over this country as well as latinos spanish etc. Lesson unlearned. Once this is over Hillary Clinton should never show her face again. It is clear to me she does not care one way or the other and after all she is already rich she should have been stoped early on in this race. and If Obama would have done or used these tactics he would have been disqualified so why do you not just go ahead and disqualify him now. Blacks are sick of it all accept those select few of black commentator that do not want to jepordize their jobs. or books one for example Larry Elder please stop talking to him he is an idiot and has a identity crisis. Poor Ophrah i been reading these blogs all she has done for a lot of people of all kind and she is being wish dead. They dont care what they say in this campaing i am not taking up for Obama but i do not like the way the media is portraying him and the way that he is being done is how they do blacks all over this country in the workplace iknow not just when you go for a top job period. This is just showing young people that fairness is not an option in this country and never will be.

BIGOLDTEXAN — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 12:54:39 GMT

I have said this more than onec that you cannot trust HRC, see below this has come up again.

After 9/11, Hillary had a problem. New Yorkers were desperately focused on their own needs for protection and they were saddled with a Senator who was not one of them -- an Arkansasn or was it a Chicagoan?

Interviewed on the "Today" show one week after 9/11, she spun an elaborate yarn. The kindest thing we could say was that it was a fantasy. Or a fabrication.

She said that Chelsea was jogging around the World Trade Center on 9/11 and happened to duck into a coffee shop when the airplanes hit. She said that this move saved Chelsea's life. But Chelsea told Talk magazine that she was in a friend's apartment four miles from ground zero when the first plane hit. Her friend called her, waking her up, and told her to turn on the TV. On television, she saw the second plane hit, disproving Hillary's claim that "she heard the plane hit. She heard it. She did."

So why did Hillary make up the story about Chelsea? Most likely to was because her co-senator (and implicit rival for the voter's affection), a real New Yorker Chuck Schumer spoke of his daughter, who attended Stuyvesant High School (Dick's alma mater) located next to the TRade Center, being at real risk on 9/11. Hillary needed to make herself part of the scene.

She invented the entire story on national television, the "Today" show, and didn't blink an eye.

Her fabrication on the "Today" show was no unique foray. It is her standard M.O.. It gives us pause in evaluating all of her stories and calls into question her entire credibility.

The woman just stands and LIE, LIE LIE.
We should not let her get away with this.
we do nit want this in the white house, she will sell us all out.
HRC is just a BIG FAT LIAR.......
