Hillary Takes The Lead

Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama > Hillary Clinton > John McCain

wenn-hill-barack.jpg

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!

  2. It's mathematically impossible for either to win! You idiots! says – reply to this


    102

    For all you pro-Obamas out there, the only way he can win it with pure delegate votes is to storm the few primaries left and win every single delegate and even then he won't have the 2025. And neither will Hillary? Why are you all so fucking stupid? Don't you know why super delegates were created? Well you're not old enough or bright enough to know so Wikipedia it and let me continue. We will see that super delegates will decide this nomination and they can vote for anyone they see fit. It doesn't have to be the popular vote candidate, the black guy, the white woman, the most experienced or the least experienced. It can be anyone they see fit. And they don't all get in a room and caucus it out! For god's sake, learn your math and politics. Either candidate can still very easily get the nod. And getting the nod is through a series of more voting, super delegates included. It's retarded to say someone should drop out. That's our ADD mentality society for you! No one can stand that it actually takes time to select between two superb candidates. And for you who think this is causing the party to suffer against McCain, please lay off the crack pipe. It's an election year — get used to it.

    Hillary cannot win. Obama has the most popular vote, is ahead in states won and pledged delegates.

    Thank goodness for the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. He personally saved us from four years of a complete Obama-Jackson-Sharpton-Farakhan-Wright Freak-Show-Negro-Cluster-Fuck in the White House and Washington, D.C. YYYaaayyy for freedom of speech. Get Rev. Wright back in the pulpit, and turn his spigot on wide open. Unleash the beast. He's done more for this campaign than any one single person. He's even got this whole thing headed back…..yes…..in the Wright direction.

    Being a prisoner of war didn't break McCain. Washington did. Look at all his reversals on key issues — just to become president. Taxes. And, Oh, Lordy! Torture. He voted to allow the torture to continue.

    As Bill Mahar so rightly put it: McCain — Not tougher. Dumber.

    Obama's downward spiral in the polls is the only the beginning. His die hard supporters and certain elected-him-at-all-costs media outlets will say how inspiring and wonderful his speech was, but to the rest of America all it did was stir the pot about the racial divide in our country. Another major problem for him, which will not blow over, is that he lied. He lied because he knew that his candidacy was in deep trouble. When the story first broke, he said that he never heard Reverend Wright say anything incendiary in the 20-plus years he knew him or while he was on the pulpit; then he said the total opposite in his speech. That's a lie. You cannot sugar coat it. He lied. Wasn't he the candidate who was going to bring eveyone together with his message of hope and unity? I have read his speech three times and each time I read it I realize that he is excusing black hatred because of the things that whites have done to them. He is so full of bullshit. He is a politician just like the rest of them. He is not a change from the old Washington. He is exactly like the rest of them, if not worse, at least the other two candidates love our country. So much for his integrity and judgment to lead.

  21. Edwards is NOT endorsing Clinton...atleast not now says – reply to this


    121

    It isn't going ot happen - not when times are "hot" right now (in the bad sense) of race-relations in the democratic party. Also, Edwards politically is more like Obama, not Hillary. And it wouldn't be a Hillary/Edwards ticket. IF (BIG, BIG IF) Hillary gets the nomination, you better believe the Obama will be the VP. He'll have to be the VP (atleast) or A LOT of blacks AND whites (about 12 million so far) are going to note vote or be disenchanted with their own party. Finally, IF Edwards was going to endorse ANYBODY, he wouldn't do it on a FRIDAY NIGHT at 11:30pmEST. He'd do it on a strong media cycle - like Monday morning. Geesh.

Everybody get behind Hillary. Stop the Insanity and vote for Humanity. Voting for B. Hussein Obama would be voting for internal War in the U.S.A. for at least 4 years for our children and grandchildren. We don't want the black militant political machine, that is lying dormant, quietly waiting, to take over and push Obama to the side, which would happen even if he were elected, and take over Washington.

    Obama is a guy who's never done anything. He's a double-talking, mask-wearing politician. "He is the candidate of hope." Yeah, that's a great idea for a president. Let's all get together and hold hands. Let's raise taxes, grow big government, and tell MORE people can't do anything for themselves. We'll have more poor people sitting at home drinking beer and eating government cheese.
    Hillary is a power-hungry, vindictive bitch with a worthless husband. I wish there were better candidates.

    people: take a breath and breathe a momentary sigh of relief. if oboma wins the nomination the fackin republicans will actually win what should be the greatest landslide in electoral history by the dems. the current republican administration has fucked up literally the whole world. they have been the worst administration in the history of the united states unquestionably. oboma will be unable to win in a country as racist as the us is. hilary is white and people will vote for the white candidate.

I am all for women's rights but we think with our hearts and in the time of war we do not need an emotional person running our country. I am a military spouse and sister to an army soldier. We need someone that can unite our country and bridge the gap we have between the races. Focus within and bring our soldiers home. P.S. perez you are awesome and I am addicted to your site.

    Too bad it doesn't matter b/c he already has the popular vote and more delegates and more states. His lead will go up after people absorb his speech on race. I'm not worried for him. Slate.com has an article on how it's nearly impossible for Hillary to beat him at this point with the current delegate situation. The longer she stays in the game, the more she is hurting her party.

    So, the national polls really matter zero.

    Re: OBUMMER IS A RACIST

    What? Hillary can't overtake him in vote either, your argument is flawed as is your candidte.

    Also the guy saying neither can mathematically win… The superdelegates will have to split OVERWHELMINGLY in her favour.

    Also stop being such a condescending cunt. The superdelegates were not created to overturn the will of the voters, all of this combined means that Obama is the nominee.
    Seriously it is idiots like yourself that keep this primary season going. IT IS OVER. SHE CANNOT BEAT OBAMA BY 80% MUCH LESS 140%

    I get it. I'm stunned that Barack didn't disown the racist preacher. The preacher preaches anti-american slurs and horrific racist diatribes. I am white. I voted for Barack proudly. He has now lost my vote. Someone please make a youtube of a white person preaching the exact words that this preacher said in his sermons and replace evil "white" America with "black" and then maybe Barack and other intelligent blacks can understand why we whites are so stunned and shocked to know that this kind of racism is handed down in their churches generation after generation. It's sad. We have our crazy racist white preachers out there too, and you better believe that any of us who wish to live in a world without racism avoid them at all costs. How does Barack not see this? I thought he was a gray candidate - both races. I found out he is a Black man who tolerates and allows his children to hear a steady diet of racist jargon. Someone asked me, where is his white pride if he is both? The only person he called a racist in his "speach" was his white grandmother. Oh well. Barack came close - another true race-free candidate will appear eventually.

    Polls don't win the nomination. Obama is nearly has nearly 200 more delegates than Clinton, and leads in the popular vote by nearly 1 million votes. Not reporting the obvious is a major oversight to say the least…

    This gets a post, whereas the "acclaimed race relations speech on Monday", which drew kudos and comparisons to speeches nationwide to those made by Kennedy, MLK, FDR, and Lincoln, but didn't even garner a mention from PH.com. Shame!

    IF the Dems are going to win in November, BOTH candidates need support on this site. What happens if you alienate the Clinton lovers from the Obama party once he gets the nomination? McCain wins in Nov, and we all lose.

    That poll was taken right after the Wright thing, and right before his race speech. It also doesn't take into account that 80% of the primaries are over. Obama still has a healthy lead and this is the ONLY poll that has Hillary ahead. Also, every other poll out has Obama killing McCain. Get your facts straight and stick to posting about celebrities.

    Aside from Pastor Wright’s comment on AIDS which needs to be proven (CIA?), everything else Pastor Wright has said is the truth, although I must admit it is controversial. I wouldn’t be surprised of Hillary’s people under her guidance implanted this controversy into YouTube in order to re-capture her lost lead, since nothing is beneath her. If the media and the right wing continue to bash Mr. Obama in his relationship with his Pastor and as a result Mr. Obama losing his bid to become the Democratic Nominee or as a President, there may be a consequence to pay such as the beginning of a race war, or possibly a precursor to a second civil war in America.

    So what if Obama mathematically has the delegate and popular vote lead right now. That doesn't mean things cannot change. He is already slipping in the polls. The republicans will keep hammering away with his Reverend Wright connection until the general election. Hillary has definately got the momentum. Pledge delegates can change their minds once they see that his electability is slipping, which it is. They are politicians and will do what is best for their careers and what will get them re-elected. Hillary could overtake the popular vote if she plays her cards right. Every time America hears "God damn America" from his spiritual advisor and close friend, his numbers will fall. Guaranteed. Americans love our country, no matter what political party we belong to and will not stand there and say nothing when it is trashed. Face it he blew it.

    Concern Citizen: Thanks for your inside finally someone with brain.Thanks.

    "side from Pastor Wright’s comment on AIDS which needs to be proven (CIA?), everything else Pastor Wright has said is the truth, although I must admit it is controversial. I wouldn’t be surprised of Hillary’s people under her guidance implanted this controversy into YouTube in order to re-capture her lost lead, since nothing is beneath her. If the media and the right wing continue to bash Mr. Obama in his relationship with his Pastor and as a result Mr. Obama losing his bid to become the Democratic Nominee or as a President, there may be a consequence to pay such as the beginning of a race war, or possibly a precursor to a second civil war in America.""

    America is racist anyway- deep down. It's just been 40 years since black people were "allowed" to vote. That is what the minister was trying to say but no one wants to hear it because people don't want to feel guilty and change. They just want to pat Barrak on the back and say good try your a nice black person but at the end of the day they do not trust black people to do anything. It's a mindset. I deal with it everyday and I'm in a high position because I work hard and I should be leading the whole company because I run it but they won't let me because they don't feel I should get it. It's a deep prejudice and until America wakes up they will always be bombing other countries for no reason!

    Obama is just like any other politician!! he needed wright's help in the black community to gain political office in chicago, so now he's gotta hem and haw on his "uncle who he doesn't agree with" WTF?!? First, that's not his uncle, second he's got bad judgement if those are the people he respects and admires, and third, his inability to see how offensive that is to "white america" is why he won't be elected!

    his speech was ridiculous!! AMERICA DOES NEED A LECTURE race relations, his "pastor" does!!

    btw, he's LOST the popular vote! hillary has every right to win the nomination after this stuff came out

    Come on folks from northeast Philly. Racism no matter its hue is irrational based on fear. I'm a white middle class, middle aged male. What I heard in Obama's speech was its essential humanity. That was not a man of color speaking, that was a man who transcended his race who gave us level headed analysis and judgement. He gave us reason to contain our fear and to build trust. He explained how we should and can condemn Wright's message without condemning the messenger. This is the only ethical way to solve the differences which threaten otherwise to tear us apart. This building of trust is essential if we are able to address and solve the many social, economic, and environmental challenges which face us. Obama's association with this community at risk attests to the value that we can not turn our back on any community. His presence, along with others of standing in that congregation, perhaps exerted a positive restraint if not on the rhetoric then on the despair of poverty which threatens the wider black community of south Chicago.

    Some of you calling Obama a racist sound like racists yourselves. Is that what you call reverse-reverse racism? It's pretty absurd to think a black man's going to destroy all white people if he becomes president. LOL! You can disagree with Rev. Wright all you want to, but keep in mind Obama DID NOT say or agree with those words. Bush's minister condemns interracial marriage. No one says anything about that. Oh those pesky double standards!

    Blacks who are outraged by our white outrage at this preacher, need to understand that the job this guy is applying for is to lead ALL. You can't be "in bed" with the wildly racist and divisive philosophies of this church. I've been shocked to learn that this kind of racism in black churches is not that unusual. Please understand that your churches are keeping you racist and angry. I can not imagine sitting in a pew with my little impressionable white children and having the preacher say "God Damn America" and that the black race hated them and would never treat them fairly! What hope would my kids have to succeed? How could they trust people? I would run, not walk, from such damaging brainwashing. Of course there are racist idiots on both side of the fence - but the truth is, most of us are NOT racist in this country. It is a myth. I am white and ran to vote for Obama. I thought he was race-neutral and would move us forward. Please black Americans, demand from your preachers to stop the hate and stop the generational cycle of distrust.

    195

    Since Obama made his speech on race, it has become increasingly clear our society lives in deep denial. We believe we have moved beyond "racial" tensions by passing the Civil Rights Bill, allowing black people to live outside of their neighborhoods, and attend our schools. As whites, we just can't comprehend why black people would be angry, feel they have a complaint, or question their status in society.The simple fact is white America is simply ignorant of black America and chooses to live in denial of that simple fact.

    Jeremiah Wright hasn't said anything that Michael Moore, Barbara Streisand and even SNL has said about George Bush. Michelle Obama told the truth and we will never forget how we as a people were oppressed during slavery, Jim Crow and the civil rights era. We are here, we built this country and there is nothing ANYONE of any race can do about it! John Hanson was actually the first black president but he didn't get credit because the rapist racists that were in power at the time LIED! OBAMA will prevail. We always do.
