[jakem]

1. kickin like Pele'

[powergirl]

39. I'm likin' the analogy

:toast:

[spotbird]

2. Hillary will cry, then issue a press release

announcing that Obama is a black man.

[GarbagemanLB]

3. The lies of Clinton begin to show their effects...

[Alhena]

4. Chuck Norris roundhouse kick to the face

:kick:

[nxylas]

24. I thought Chuck was for Huckabee n/t

[krawhitham]

49. Chuck fights evil no matter where he sees it

[Bullet1987]

5. GOOOOOBAMA!!!!

[Mooney]

6. But... but...

he has a crazy pastor who reflects badly on him somehow! Rezko! Imploding! The speech didn't work!

And so on!

[SoonerPride]

7. Hillary is on my ignore list.

She is no longer even a sideshow.

McCain is our target.

Time to move on.

It.
Is.
Over.

[grantcart]

14. And Obama's too - didn't mention her in his speech today

[slinkerwink]

28. Hillary doesn't like to be ignored

:-(

[powergirl]

40. Like Glenn Close???

in Fatal Attraction!! ( I wish I knew how to put pictures in these darn posts!)

[Cheap_Trick]

46. hide the bunnies!

on edit:

here ya go!

[powergirl]

51. Thank you for the awesome graphic

I need to study up on posting graphics. A picture is worth a thousand words!

[cottonseed]

52. Photoshop a beard on Douglass and you've got Richardson.

[tabasco]

8. This trend will continue.

Hillary is only hurting herself with her "kitchen sink" gutter campaign.

[Saturday]

9. So you're bragging about a margin of error lead? LOL nt

[adoraz]

12. MoE is 3, LOL!

[karynnj]

33. It's still within the MOE - the moe cited means that Obama

is between 51 and 45 and HRC is between 48 and 42. The intervals overlap. (This is a simple way of looking at it rather looking at the MOE of (Obama - HRC).

(I'm for Obama) - and it doesn't make it far more likely that he is really ahead than that she is.

[adoraz]

43. oh okay, thanks for that

I was assuming it meant 3 pts overall, not 3 for each person.

[karynnj]

48. The last line should be

It does make it far more likey that that he is really ahead than she is. (I was stripping some double negatives and ended up saying the opposite of what I intended.

[Teaser]

36. The MOE on each number is 3

think of it as a band of uncertainty surrounding each estimate. These bands still overlap.

[wileedog]

18. Well that and an insurmountable Pledged Delegate lead

What have you got?

[JackORoses]

20. no, just pointing out that your candidate is so horrid,

that she is still losing after Obama's worst week ever.

Here is this Primary contest in a nutshell:
Hillary was the inevitable frontrunner yadayadyada she gets her ass kicked and Barack Obama becomes President.

[L0oniX]

10. Kickin it

[bdamomma]

11. we got to keep him high in the ratings.

[CountAllVotes]

13. K&R!!!!

GOBAMA!!!!!

:dem: :kick:

[SoxFan]

15. Like a Taylor Twellman game-winner

[jezebel]

16. I don't see this on Gallup's site. They still have yesterday's up. ?? nt

[adoraz]

19. story not up yet

they always post the graphs first, and you get them by changing the numbers in the URL to match today's date.

[jezebel]

21. thanks, I thought I was looking in the wrong place. nt

[ginnyinWI]

17. Pretty good for an "upstart"

Obama 44, McCain 45. Hee Hee. :) :)

[Lucky 13]

22. Take that poll to the delegates, Hillary.

I hope you choke on it.

[stratomagi]

23. K&R

:kick:

Good News. Now if only we can close up PA.

[Catherina]

25. That kitchen sink strategy really is working!

I'd like to take this moment to thank each and every HRC supporter for doing such a fine job with it.

Some of us tried to tell you it would backfire big-time but thankfully you didn't didn't listen to our concerned advice. Please keep it up. The sooner she's yanked off-stage, the better for the country.

[knixphan]

59. amen

[slinkerwink]

26. WAHOO!

[Froward69]

27. Goes to show Hillarys

plan is working... "If not her then ruin the Dems advantage."

[malik flavors]

29. : )

[RiverStone]

30. Thanks for the good news --- I hope the super delegates are paying attention

[adoraz]

31. oh and I will update this once the story comes out

[Celebration]

32. Wait until the NEXT one

These are three day averages. Just wait until tomorrow. The Bosnia incident will have an even greater effect then.

[Independent-Voter]

34. Looks like Tonya managed to kneecap herself. Couldn't have happened to a better person.

[npincus]

35. kick-i-poo

[Alter Ego]

37. That's good, but we know how mercurial these dailies are, people.

[Adelante]

38. It's within the MOE

But it is a nice indicator, anyways. Thanks. :)

[democrattotheend]

62. Nope, MOE is 3

So it's outside the MOE, for the first time in a while.

[Adelante]

64. Obama might be at 45% - Clinton might be at 47%

Leaving 2 points between them, which would bring them within the MOE of 3.

[Coexist]

41. do you have a link to these numbers?

[adoraz]

42. the links are the pictures themselves

right click on the images in the OP to get the URL.

[Coexist]

47. thank you - I am not so clever!

[kid a]

44. guess its time for more Wright

[Tropics_Dude83]

45. Yep and that's exactly what MSNBC is doing today n/t

[slinkerwink]

50. it's so clear they're in the tank for Hillary

[Scurrilous]

53. K & R

:thumbsup:

[Robbins]

54. Obama

We are starting to see the effect of Snipergate.It pulls Obama back ahead of her.Which Is why the
MSM Is digging out more comments Wright made.Like NBC Gallup shows Obama stronger against Mccain.
Now to be fair Mccain Is 1 point ahead but since Mccain gets almost no negative coverage this Is
good.This hurts Hillary's case to Superdelegates.

[Coexist]

55. He's up 10 in the new Pew poll - 49% - 39%

[Alexander]

56. That's three polls now that show Hillary's support dropping like a rock.

All pre-Bosnia sniper lie, too.

[BlueIdaho]

57. Who knew?

When you stop talking about what you will do for the people after your election and start wallowing in the mud, exaggerating your record, and attacking the other guy - your poll numbers go down. Well what do you know about that?

[knixphan]

58. Bendin' like Beckham

[ShadowLiberal]

60. That's still a very slim lead

The lines are barely even a centimeter or two apart from each other.

[TheDonkey]

61. SNIPER FIRE!

hurts even if imaginary.

[cerebellum]

63. McCain's lead shrank as well

Good news.
