Obama Losing ground to McCain....Clinton Gaining on McCain
April 20, 2008

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows John McCain leading Barack Obama by six percentage points and Hillary Clinton by four. McCain leads Barack Obama 48% to 42%. That is little changed from McCain’s five-point lead over Obama just prior to the last debate between the Democratic candidates. The presumptive Republican nominee leads Hillary Clinton 48% to 44%. Prior to the debate, McCain enjoyed a ten-point lead over Clinton. Daily tracking results are updated daily at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time.

1. Hillary Has Lost - She Is Only Helping McSameAsBush
Deal with it or just become a Republican if you can't.

2. McCain's lead over both of them gives him a cushion in the months ahead.
Doesn't look good for Obama or Hillary right now. McCain's in the driver's seat now.

5. The attacks have been on Repubs in general..
We run one race at a time. Obama has much tainted baggage yet be revealed. Obama will not survive the general and will not survive Clinton because this campaign will go on until August to his detriment. Not to wonder why the DNC wants to end the race here and now. They really and truly think the RW doesn't do their homework of know of Obama's darkside.

6. Hillary is trying to insure McCain's election
she knows she's lost the nomination, but there is always 2012. What kind of Democrat is that?

8. What majority?
your poll shows a difference of 2% between Obama and Clinton, within the MOE. Both are trailing McCain, I really don't think it's anything to crow about.
