Obama surges past Clinton in Democratic race
Barack Obama has surged past Hillary Clinton to open a big national lead in the Democratic presidential race, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.
Obama also leads Republican front-runner John McCain in a potential November election match-up while Clinton trails McCain, enhancing Obama's argument he is the Democrat with the best shot at capturing the White House.
Among Republicans, McCain has a substantial national lead over his last major challenger, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, as he takes his final steps toward clinching the nomination.
Heading into crucial March 4 nominating contests in Ohio and Texas, Obama has gained the upper hand in a close and fierce Democratic duel with Clinton. McCain broke open the Republican race and has driven out most of his leading rivals.

Granted, I live in a very Red state, but what I am constantly hearing is that people kind of like that Obama guy, but would never vote for Hilary. I think even the Red people hunger for change, but fear the change Hilary would bring. I think this fear of Hilary is almost psychotic, especially after the terror of the Bush presidency, but one Democrats need to take note of.

Dee - I absolutely agree. Hillary is much more polarizing than Obama. He has the ability to speak to both sides, but she tends to be more one-track.
She might also be overcompensating for being a woman. She's being tough to the point of foolishness. Her accusations against Obama have been silly, for lack of a better word.
Her repeated argument that she has more experience just isn't true. They entered Congress at the same time. He had experience in the Illinois legislature. What political positions has she held? Having a politician for a husband does not make you a politician any more than having a doctor for a husband makes you a doctor.
Her inability to be a gracious loser is also having a negative effect. She doesn't congratulate Obama in her speeches anymore and that's just juvenile. I think what irks her the most is that this upstart got in the way of her grand plan. Bill had the White House for 8 years, then she'd spend some time getting her career going, then take the White House herself. She just assumed she was a shoe-in. Unfortunately, the fact that she's using the Karl Rove Playbook proves that she's really just more of the same and that's exactly what people are trying to avoid.
