INTERESTING READ: OBAMA AND CLINTON VS McCAIN
Per electoral-vote.com (Granted many polls are old, but they do a good job keep things current on the site.)

She does better than Obama vs. McCain in the following states: AZ, AR, OK, NY(by 4%), PA(by 1%), FL, MS, AL, TN, KY, OH(by 2%), MA, WV and RI. The only states that is showing her winning vs. McCain, that Obama is not is WV, FL, and NY. If you believe that Obama will not win NY in the GE, I think you are mistaken. Obama leads Clinton vs. McCain in the other 36 states, NV(by 2%), MN(by 1%), MI(by 2%), NJ(by 1%), SC(by 3%), CA(by 4%), DE(by 4%). States that show Obama is winning vs. McCain that Hillary is not are OR, WA, WI, NM, ND, and IA, with ties in CO, and NC. It is interesting to note that he is down only 1% to McCain in TX. Even the electoral map does not look as good for Hillary right now as her campaign is trying to get the SD's to believe. Of course, this is all dynamic, and might look different after the next few contests. I also believe with some campaigning in FL, he can make the race interesting vs. McCain.

"He's completely unelectable!"

Thanks for sharing. And it does bode well for him.

4. Yes, Obama puts many more states into play than Hillary would.
If Hillary doesn't have a complete credibility melt-down, she could help deliver NY and FL for Obama.
