Obama And McCain Rising

Published by at 4:06 pm under 2008 Elections,All General Discussions

A quick look at some key polls tell you all you need to know about Super Tuesday. McCain’s and Obama’s numbers keep rising. The difference is McCain is expanding his lead while Obama is still overtaking Clinton. Check out these daily tracking poll graphs from Gallup:

These national numbers (and the analysis that goes with them so follow the links to Gallup) show both McCain and Obama moving up smartly while their opponents have less movement. And in the big Super Tuesday states you see similar patterns. Check out the current RCP polls for NY and McCain, he is crushing Romney. Obama has a hill to climb and not much time. I would prefer he barely lose to Hillary so as to inflict maximum damage to the Dems and split their base so that disillusioned African Americans will cross-over to McCain if he continues to be the most likely nominee. That is the GOP’s best hope right now, Clinton scratching out a win and busting the democrat base apart in the process.

    Ann Coulter on Romney:

    Ridiculous Romney Cites Book By Scientologist L. Ron Hubbard May 2, 2007, 1:07 PM
    This is not helping Mormons seem normal . . .

    MITT ROMNEY, L. RON HUBBARD FAN

    What’s next? Winking at Islamic fundamentalists for being the last Americans to give up polygamy?

    Oh, and this, too:

    Gov. Mitt Romney will never recover from his acquiescence to the Massachusetts Supreme Court’s miraculous discovery of a right to gay marriage.

    Pervez Musharraf is better than Mitt Romney! Ann Coulter said so!

    If Republicans end up with a divided convention between Mitt Romney and Rudy Giuliani, I say we pick Gen. Pervez Musharraf.
