Clinton leads Obama 49-40 in SV PA poll (+4), loses to McSame by 3 while Obama loses by 10

[jackson_dem]

PA has 21 electoral votes, 5th most.

-snip-

Political Wire got an advance look at a new Strategic Vision poll in Pennsylvania which shows Sen. Hillary Clinton leading Sen. Barack Obama, 49% to 40%.

Key findings: Clinton is up two points from last week while he is down 2%.

However, the biggest change is in the general election match-up. McCain now leads both Democrats. He tops Clinton 47% to 44% and beats Obama 49% to 39%.

1. That stinks. I think Hillary was up six in the previous poll.

2. They will go up and down. The key is to look at the relative difference between Clinton and Obama

This is consistent with poll after poll that shows Clinton substantially stronger than Obama in Pennsylvania. Clinton does 5.4 points better in PA in the rcp average, 8% better in Ohio, and a full 12% better in Florida.

7. It's been going after him for the past two months under the name Hillary Clinton.

10. I thought it was because of your fear of ponies?

FREE SHRUGGIE!

8. And why do you think that is? Maybe because both Hillary and McCain have been

attacking Obama relentlessly. Thank your fucking candidate for her great work and knee-caping out best hope in 08.

9. A 9 point lead in PA is nothing to brag about.

Hillary's only hope is for PA to be a blow out, like 15+ points atleast! And still, it wouldn't be close to sealing the deal for her. :rofl:
