Hillary Takes The Lead
Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama > Hillary Clinton > John McCain
According to a new Gallup poll, Hillary Clinton has passed ahead of Barack Obama by an impressive 7 points — 49 to 42 percent.
This is the widest gap we've seen in polls between the two Dem presidential nominee wannabees in weeks.
The poll was conducted before Barack's acclaimed race relations speech on Monday.
But, according to Gallup's Jeff Jones, "the initial indications are that the speech has not halted Clinton's gaining momentum as she led by a similar margin in Tuesday night's polling as compared to Monday night's polling."
On another note, looks like John McCain is benefitting from the loooooong and tense Democratic nomination process. Grrrrrrr.
A new Gallup poll also showed McCain leading both Democrats. McCain holds a 4 point lead over Obama and 3 point lead over Clinton.
We don't care who you support. Just register to vote!

Nice try Perez. Hillary's still behind in popular votes, delegates, and superdelegates. Which are what matters. Not to mention in fundraising. Stop being a corprate whore and wake up to the fact that Clinton is just another elitist. Same old, same old, same old.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!
I thinks she is hot!!!
Glad to see America (or maybe just the democrats?) are finally coming to their senses! I mean, I hate the odious bitch too but I'll take her over Whatever Hussein Osama any day!
1st bitch
WOOO! Go Hilary!
The weak housewife, if she can't handle her husband how is she gonna run the US?
Let's not pay people for sitting on their ass and refusing to work.
MCCAIN, MCCAIN, MCAIN!!!
Its because of The Minister, he Hates White People
Way to go Hillary! Yay!! Love you! Peace and Love!
Go McCain !
Hillary Clinton will not win the nomination but instead of saving face and supporting the rightful candidate- she is embarrassing the democratic party along with herself –> She needs to drop out –> it is for the best.
the gallup poll is closing ALREADY.
Michigan and Florida ARE NOT BEING SEATED
OBAMA HAS MORE VOTES AND 170 MORE DELEGATES
HILLARY HAS LOST
END OF
VOTE FOR HILLARY!!!
HILLARY 08!!!
PLEASE VOTE SMART!!!
Registered. And supporting McCain.
8th. blahvhahavhahvhah
Obama had the chance with his speech to detach himself from the hate-mongering preacher and he did not. The republicans will tear him apart completely. We have to give the nomination to Hillary… She's the only one who can win at this point.
Voting is irrelevant!
THE WORLD IS FUCKED!
I mean its full of dumb ppl!
fuck mccain. the last thing we need is another four years with a republican president.
McCain will win the election. Hillary did a great job of dividing the deomocratic party, and playing on everyone's worst fears. She did the republicans ob for them. Thanks Hill! I like McCain, so I'm happy. McCain 08!
Too bad tomorrow isn't the PA primary.
She might've had a chance at getting the Dem ticket. Too bad it's weeks away, which is a hundred years in politics. The Wrightmare will pass over by then and if Obama continues these public addresses, he'll climb straight back up. In the meantime, we the voters are disillusioned with the Democratic party and their inability to settle this, and more and more of us are seeing McCain as the next president.
C'mon dems, get your shit together and get the nominee ASAP! Losing this election to a Republican who aims to continue Bush's regime would tear this country into pieces. Not to mention it would show how incompetent the Democratic party is. Losing an election following a president who has thoroughly drove this economy into the ground and has sacrificed thousands of lives for selfish purposes? An embarrassment to the whole nation.

Political Memo
Clinton Facing Narrower Path to Nomination
By ADAM NAGOURNEY
WASHINGTON — Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton needs three breaks to wrest the Democratic presidential nomination from Senator Barack Obama in the view of her advisers.
She has to defeat Mr. Obama soundly in Pennsylvania next month to buttress her argument that she holds an advantage in big general election states.
She needs to lead in the total popular vote after the primaries end in June.
********************************
Wright's Rantings Won't Sink Obama
By Dick Morris
Will the Gospel According to Jeremiah Wright sink the Obama candidacy? Not very likely.
**********************************
all i have to say is god damnit.
I think you do care who we vote for, Perez.
Just know, a vote for Hillary is a vote for McCain.
misleading and pathetic perez
Will the Gospel According to Jeremiah Wright sink the Obama candidacy? Not very likely.
Let's start with two basic facts:
(a) Sen. Barack Obama (Ill.) has already won the Democratic nomination. It's over. Regardless of how the remaining primaries and caucuses go, including Michigan and even Florida, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.) can never catch Obama in elected delegates. His current lead of 170 pledged delegates will not be overcome no matter what happens. Even if Clinton beats him by 10 points in each of these primaries, he will still lead among elected delegates by over 100. The superdelegates will not override the will of the voters unless Obama is in jail.
HA HA HA OBUMMER…EAT SHIT YOU LYING SACK OF CRAP !!!!!!!!!!!!! EVERYONE KNOWS YOU KNEW HOW YOUR PREACHER FELT ABOUT WHITE PEOPLE, AND NO ONE BELIEVES YOUR LIES ANYMORE…YOU STINKING ASSWIPE RACIST !!!
I think it is quite interesting that for the whole of Hillary's campaign, her people have been talking about how polls don't matter because her ass was down in all of those polls. Now, interestingly enough, her people are all over this latest poll saying that there is momentum shift happening. Whatever, I think the fact that Obama has the pledged delegate, popular vote and is now more than catching up in superdelegates shows who Americans want as the Democratic nominee. And by the way, Perez, I love how you didn't post Obama's speech on race. You don't post anything but the negative things about Obama. How about you just stay out of it, hmm?
Go Hillary Go! All the way to the convention if you have too.
Re: THATS BULLSHIT – HA HA HA SHITHEAD…YOUR BUTT-BOY'S GONNA LOSE AND YOU CAN'T STAND IT…HA HA HA HA !!!!!
That's just for now. OBAMA YO MAMA!!!
Obama- " I'm Barack OBAMA, Bitch!"
Obama has proven to be nothing but a racist and hateful person himself by following that pyscho Rev. Wright. What a psycho.
Nothing about Barack's amazing speech…but bogus polls are posted straightaway…Hillary needs to sit down and let destiny move forward…she is not an amazing person and only inspires people to lie, smile and lie…
eww noooo not john mccain
perez- leave your own politics out of the race. clearly we know who you support.
Re: ELECT OBUMMER…ELECT HIS PREACHER…THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE ! – We taking over, OBAMA, YO MAMA!!!
VOTE OBAMA!! Won't get attacked with Black in office.
Thank you Reverend Wright.
That is cute that a non-binding and unofficial poll has her ahead. She is losing in the delegate count, losing in the popular vote, and is virtually mathematically eliminated at this point. Give it up.
I cannot believe you would support someone that took part in introducing Don't Ask, Don't Tell and used very anti-gay ads to win over the South years ago.
yo perez stop pushing hilary! she can't catch obama.
President McCain…….get used to it!!!
Since Obama is a man of ONLY words, it would seem he would have left his church LONG ago. I never believed he had an agenda until finding out all of this. Now I do believe he has an agenda. And it is a racial agenda to use tax money to advance one race. And I believe that after he brought his white gramma into his so called speech, he actually must have hated her to make her look racist though she is dead and cannot defend herself. He smeared the other candidates in an attempt to make himself look average or ordinary in his hatred of the white half of himself. Too bad. I never really BELIEVED him, but I didn't think he was a scheming liar. Now we know. What a shame. He was the great hope of white guilt everywhere.
I though people in America wanted things to change for the better?! If Clinton gets on the ticket, McAin wins and we have 4 more years just like GW. And if, by some twist of fate, Hil actually wins, it will be 4 more years like GW. Remember she actually VOTED FOR this illegal war in Iraq?
He threw his own gammy under a bus and called her a typical white person…..SICK. He surrounds himself with people who are racist and hate America. I never even heard of him before the race…What has he ever done for our country? NOTHING but divide us further. Way to cause a race war asshole!
Perez supports the candidate who claims credit for an administration/husband who enacted the "Defense of Marriage Act," Don't Ask Don't Tell, and advised Kerry to advocate against gay marriage in 2004. Great gay rights candidate, there.
go hilary!!!! mccain sucks my little nipples
Re: judith – YOu just want another reason to hate him. You're mad b/c a black man has gotten this far in the race of presidency. Ha. He has never said anything racist out of his mouth. His damn mother is white, people com mon give it a rest. He doesn't agree with everything his pastor said. Both of my grandparents are pastors of churches and I don't agree with everything they say. Alot of priest, pastors, rabbi, and whatever can be very judgemental sometimes. Doesn't make them evil. No one is perfect , I know you probably have may skeletons in your closet. We don't know what racist remarks you have probably said behind closed doors.
GO HILARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GORE NEEDS TO GET OFF HIS FAT ASS AND RUN FOR OFFICE. THIS IS A SHITSHOW. MCCAIN TAKES IT W/ CURRENT STATE. AL - STOP EATING AND GET IN THE RACE!!
Re: OBUMMER IS A ROTTED RACIST PIG –
How can he lose?
He's 170 delegates ahead and Hillary needs to win Pennsylvania by 140% (literally) to have a chance of getting close to Obama.
Seriously this is OVER. She MATHEMATICALLY CANNOT WIN.
Which is why the media only focuses on her when she whines about Michigan, Florida or makes some overtly racist comment.
The better candidate won, now lets move onto the general election with us all united behind our nominee, Obama
You go , girl!
Perez, whether you like him or not, Obama gave a HISTORIC speech on race and you gave no attention to it…Now Hillary predictably inched fwd. Well guess what, the latest trend is that Obama is coming back. Hill has NO CHANCe and she has ANGERED the Dem party. Even if she does win the nominiation, she just f*cked up her chances to be PREZ. Obama 08. Spread the love.
This Clinton vs Obama vs McCain has turned into a race thing. There is no denying it. I think everyone at this point should embrace this and vote for Obama because it is time we voted for a president inspite of the race issue. Let the chips fall where they may.
East Hampton says OBAMA!!!
The poll was taken BEFORE Obama's speech on race (FYI he wrote that speech himself). It's very upsetting to think that people are so quick to judge without looking at the facts. Obama's mother is from Kansas & his father from Kenya. He is NOT muslum. His words on race were more UNIFING than anything. The MEDIA is taking over this election & ruining both candidates. Every time you see Obama on TV, they have him standing with Rev. Wright. Every time they show Clinton, they now show clips from her husband's presidency. Instead of following the issues, people are making quick assumptions based on FEAR. The sad thing is that the media is playing with everyone's minds. This is truly SEPERATING the democratic party. We are seperating OURSELVES by continuing the misjudgement (in our words– for instance on this blog).
The scenario with Rev. Wright is RIDICULOUS. My pastor (Catholic church) would often give homilies that were full of bias, and opinions on moral decisions. I DID NOT agree with him, but he was a great family friend. The POPE himself just added "10 more commandments". Does this mean that because I respect these people, that I am not a good person? I don't think so. We are all connected to people that are not 100% wonderful.
We are just greatful that the media hasn't shown pictures of Monkia Lewinski…or aired old clips of Bill on the stand for impeachment!!! I'm sure that would not be a positive scenario for her campaign.
NO ONE is perfect. The important thing that we need to do is come together as one to UNIFY the nation. I personally don't want to see the nation ruled by BUSH-CLINTON-BUSH-CLINTON. We would have over 30 years of the same two families. Hmmm…democratic society or hierarchy? You decide.
Look at the issues. Then decide who you want for our next president.
It ain't over until the fat superdelegates sing. Let the bribes and kickbacks begin. Only in America
McCain has served his entire honorable and dedicated life to our country. You can't say that about Bush, Hillary and especially Obama… what more could you want? Have some respect for yourselves and our country…VOTE FOR MCCAIN!
Gallup? HA! Do you even know WHO they poll? Pah-lease!
Re: ELECT OBUMMER…ELECT HIS PREACHER…THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE ! – RIGHT ON! HIS WIFE, MICHELLE "THE BITCH FROM HELL" WAS NEVER PROUD OF THIS COUNTRY UNTIL HER HUSBAND THE RACIST RAN FOR PEREZ-I-DENT!!! OBUMMER (IF I MAY BORROW YOUR WORD) SHOULD BE THE PRESIDENT OF ZAIRE, NOT THE US OF A!!! HILLARY'S GONNA GET THE NOMINATION AND SHE WILL BE G–GGGGGG—REAT!!! HILLARY=DONNA KARAN, BUTTCRAK=THE KORAN!!! NOW IF BILL COSBY WERE RUNNING FOR OFFICE I'D VOTE FOR HIM, JUST NOT THIS SELF-HATING CRACKER CRUMB!!!
Yeah, you don't care who people support. That's bullshit. If you don't care, stop posting bullshit propaganda from Hillary's camp.
poles are complete b.s. perez - you have so many readers. why do you report this crap? is it so you have something provocative that will piss people like me off?
Not sure what this "gallup poll" is predicting. In actual delegate votes (which do matter), Obama still holds a sizeable 119 delgate lead.
.I just got back from a trip overseas. The folks in Europe wonder how we can vote for a war pig or an impeached presidents wife over a new version of leadership. THEY ARE AMAZED…
May the best person win. Hillary Rodham Clinton. Yyyyaaaayyyy.
How many people do you know that actually voted in this poll? Just because a poll says Clinton is winning does NOT make it true at all- so A+ for making it seem that way. If you notice, Obama has more delegates (about 100 more) than Clinton. So maybe a poll says Clinton is favoured, that's not what the result show- nor is it what is actually happening.
Anything/everything you post about the political election has been false and misleading. Seriously, way to go mentioning Obama's pastor, but failing to note Geraldine Ferraro's racist remarks. Also, good job reporting Obama's response and denunciation of his pastor. If you are going to post political news, at least do it fairly or go back to pointless celebrity posts.

Re: Queen of the Spammed – I'm a Hillary Clinton Queen myself, but McCain is NO enemy to the gay community, and will work with our community if elected…Obama on the other hand will be totally ineffectual regardless of the community. So while I totally support Clinton, I think you're right…McCain has served his country honorably, and considering all the other TOTAL ASSHOLES the republican's could have run…is not all together bad.
Re: YumYum – How exactly did you come to the conclusion that Obama has a racial agenda? Oh yeah, there is the agenda of wanting a dialogue to take place on an issue that requires dialogue in order to move on from it. There is not one thing that Obama has said or done that would show anyone that he is racist, bigot or someone who does not believe that every American should have and enjoy equal rights in this supposed great country of ours. His pastor says some divisive and "unpatriotic" comments and somehow Obama has a racial agenda to advance black people?? Your logic is quite astonishing. It's people like you who keep this country in the stagnant stage it's been in for a while now…people who do not want to realize that there are problems in this country that should be talked about and resolved so that we can ALL enjoy the promise of what this country is supposed to stand for. May I also point out that the entirety of American race has been about advancing the agenda of one race…take a wild guess as to which race that would be.
All u stupid little kids eat up Obama's bullshit speaches. He's a racist and thank God we saw the snake in the grass before we got a bite. He'll say anything to become our country's Commander in Cheif. Could u even imagine the corruption if he were in office? 20 years listening to hate speech, he'll make white people into slaves.
that is a bull-shhhhhid report bc he has MORE delegates
Re: OBAMA IS A RACIST!!! – NO you're dividing us for your hatred for OBAMA, not because you don't like the way he presents himself, or THe way he Talks, or even his speeches. It's because he is black. No don't go saying I am saying this because I like him because he is black. I mean look at everything you wrote. It sounds like a racist wrote it. He said his grandmother dispised Black men. She crossed the otherside of the street when she came across them. He also said, he loves her to death even though her comments pierced him in his heart. But you didn't hear that you were so dumb stuck on his color. What has he done for his country? Maybe you should do some damn research before you start talking. LEave this man alone.
Also, it really is mathematically impossible for Clinton to win. She is grasping at straws, playing it dirty, and doing everything in her power to bring Obama down. The only way she CAN win is if the vote goes to the Superdelegates and they choose her- but many have stated that they will go the way of the people (Obama, for the record, has more of the popular vote). Besides, if Clinton did win she would be crushed by McCain. There is too much hate for her in both parties. Consider the only candidate who has the capability to CHANGE the future of our country. Not just for a few years, but a completely new page in the history books.
VOTE OBAMA!!!!!!!!!
Only the delusional, and at this point ignorant, still think she's going to win. Mathematically she CAN'T. And most intelligent people (polls show) don't vote for her. Most intelligent people vote for Obama. They see through this media frenzy to make this a race war. DON'T YOU IDIOTS SEE??? Is this what you want? Us to feel separated by race AND gender? UGH. Obama is going to win this…you watch.
Re: Queen of the Spammed – I think McCain would make a great leader. Too bad he is representing the wrong party at the wrong time.
One of them needs to pull out of the race and it should be Obama.
Get ready Democrats, Hillary will be our nominee and no one is more thrilled than me. I predict a Hillary/Edwards ticket. The buzz is that he's getting ready to endorse her publicly on national television, maybe as early as tonight when he appears on Jay Leno tonight. You heard it here first. Bitch is the new Black and we are going to win in November. McCain — pashaw!
We need a rep in the white house. Dems will just fuck stuff up even more than they already are! For fuck's sake, Obama wants to give drivers licenses to illegals! WTF!!!!! Go McCain, even though he kinda sucks. Go Ron Paul.
Another thing. I am sick of people holding Obama responsible for the rantings of a preacher. I don't care if it was the pastor of his church. He is not responsible for what the man says. There are plenty of things religious leaders of my faith say that I don't agree with (as he has come out and said). Also, alot of that footage of the rpeacher was dug up (not even current) to do simply this…cause a scandal. I am sure that you can find questionable people in each one of these candidates pasts (including cheating husbands and politcal scandals). The whole thing makes me sick. I am an intelligent person and am not judging the man based on another man;s actions.
these polls do not include cell phones……..
What a racist!!!! If my preacher talked like that, I'd leave!!!!!!!!!!!!! It reminds me of Hitler speaking to his crowds of people. The evil rev. even has propaganda DVDs. Some black people will unite against white weather they are right are wrong, and Barak is one of them. He almost had me fooled. Don't be stupid people.
Hillary's leading? Really? Take a look at the delegate count again, there, pal.
