A major national pollster says that Hillary Clinton has fallen well behind in New Hampshire after her third-place finish in Iowa.
Rasmussen Reports, in a telephone survey of 510 likely Democratic voters on Friday, found 37 percent backing Barack Obama, 27 percent for Clinton, 19 percent for John Edwards and 8 percent for Bill Richardson.
Rasmussen projects that 40 percent of the Democratic ballots will be cast by independents, not registered party members. The poll's admitted margin of error is 4.5 percent.
In Rasmussen's last New Hampshire polling, before Christmas, Clinton led Obama by 3 percent.
The title you created
“Obamam surging in first post-Iowa poll”
doesn’t match the linked source. Please do not alter titles. Thanks.
Impossibly surreal and quite possibly this nation's FINAL step towards "SOCIALISM"!!
Get ready for the Clinton slime-machine to drop the big one on Barry.
Tell you what it appears to be: The young voters have had enough of Boomers and are getting jazzed about a youngish President and are turning out for the election process. This is the changing of the guard.
Man, it’s crazy in the Queen City, the Obama-rama is almost scary.
The witch is dead!! Fox News is sooooooooo in the tank for the beast.
Just saw a Fox News reporter report on the fundraiser held in NH last night.
He did not mention that Hillary got booed twice. Shame on Fox for not reporting what happened.
Gotcha
I agree, but she’s in a world of hurt.
Unleashing the slime machine may hurt him, but it will also drive up her already-stratospheric negatives.
She doesn’t have a choice, but it may do more harm than good.
Heh.
Exactamundo.
Much too early for any of this to mean anything, but it is nice to see her take one on the chin, especially considering her people probably thought she had it in the sack from day 1.
And Bobkk47 brings up the obvious point that she hasn't turned her trained killer weasels loose on Obama yet.
Can we come up with a new nickname for Obama?
I just heard this one: “The Beige Yuppie.”
Just had this thought - what if Hillary loses in NH and then decides to torpedo Obama so she can run in 2012? I wouldn’t put it past her or her ego.
First they show him what they have and offer him the Vice-Presidency.
But how does he gracefully lose or withdraw at this point?
The Democrat Plantation Master and Mistress getting trounced!! YEAH!!!!!
Hillary is DONE.
It’s always fun when she goes negative.She does it so badly.
