According to USA Today's Susan Page: "The survey of 310 Democrats and 160 independents who 'lean' Democratic, taken Friday through Sunday, has a margin of error of +/- 5 percentage points" which means that Hillary might be ahead by as many as nine percentage points, or she might be as far behind as 11.

Oops! A Clinton is behind! Time to start making stuff up about the Margin of Error again...

My favorite was in 1996, right after the RNC Convention, Bob Dole was up in a survey over Bill Clinton something like 52/42, with a four point margin of error. The AP wrote, apparently seriously, that this result was not statistically significant because if you subract the 4 point MOE from Dole's response and added 4 points to Clintons, they wound up nearly tied and within a 4% margin of error.

I was hoping that
some staffer came forward and
said that Hillary

had been having an
affair with them for months now...
I was enjoying

trying to guess if
the staffer would be male or
female... It's just polls.

This is all political theater. At some point Obama will will receive an invitation (one he can't refuse...) to join her ticket as VP, with the promise that if he behaves and does as he's told, he might live to one day be President himself.

Rintinse is correct: Hillary's real nightmare is Al Gore.

The Democrats will vote for the candidate that the media supports. The media controls the vertical and the horizontal.

Nah, the real nightmare scenario is if Gore runs, particularly third party.

True.  A 3rd party Goron candidacy would defininately kill any chance of a Dem winning.

I see a 3rd party "conservative" candidate, like McCain as much more likely.

A 4-way race with Gore, McCain and the dem/pub nominees would actually be extremely interesting to watch.

Every time I think of the workers in Hillary’s campaign, I think of that scene from “Willy Wonka”, with Verruca Salt’s Dad screaming at his factory workers. It can’t be a happy place.

I don’t think Gore will go 3rd party. That would invite the wrath of his newfound Hollywood buddies. He would be persona non grata everywhere.

This is all drama. It is going to be Hill + Obama(vp) and the MSM has been chuckling all along since they know it too. John Edwards is the only one who can actually sling at her/them. This cute little charade will continue until we are all “suprised and amazed” that a woman and an AA are on the bring of assuming the most powerful offices in the history of the world. Choreographed by Spielberg and Geffen. Marketed by Madison Avenue. Preached from the Pulpits. Talked up on “the street”. It’s coming. Hillobama ‘08. And we got nuthin. Yet.

And she will if she has to, I think she’s conceding the black vote to him - for now.

Maybe Teddy can take her on a drive?

Or boating?

The water would do her some good...
