WASHINGTON (AP) -- Hillary Rodham Clinton now leads John McCain by 9 points in a head-to-head presidential matchup, according to an Associated Press-Ipsos poll that bolsters her argument that she is more electable than Democratic rival Barack Obama.
The survey released Monday gives the New York senator and former first lady a fresh talking point as she works to raise much-needed campaign cash and persuade pivotal undecided superdelegates to side with her in the drawn-out Democratic primary fight.
Helped by independents, young people and seniors, Clinton gained ground this month in a hypothetical match with Sen. McCain, the GOP nominee-in-waiting. She now leads McCain, 50 percent to 41 percent, while Obama remains virtually tied with McCain, 46 percent to 44 percent.
Both Democrats were roughly even with McCain in the previous poll about three weeks ago.
Since then, Clinton won the Pennsylvania primary, raising questions anew about whether Obama can attract broad swaths of voters needed to triumph in such big states come the fall when the Democratic nominee will go up against McCain.
Added Steve Lombardo, a GOP pollster: "This just reinforces the sentiment that a lot of Republican strategists are having right now -- that Clinton might actually be the more formidable fall candidate for a lot of reasons, not the least of which is that Obama can't seem to get his footing back."

Well, the “chaos” in Operation Chaos should have been your first clue. But, okay, you didn’t get it.
All the posts here explaining exactly what OC is meant to do, and you STILL don’t get it? Well bro, I can’t help you there.
If you don’t want to see it, there is nothing anyone can do for you.

If Hillary “steals” the nomination from BHO, the outrage from the Obamians will devastate the Democratic Party. The superdelegates have no choice but to go with Obama even if they know he’ll lose.
And that 'chaos' is designed to accomplish what exactly....?

But I think three additional things: (1) McCain is a weak candidate representing a despised status quo, so he would get beat by either one, no matter what Limbaugh does; (2) Limbaugh's effect on the Democratic primaries is much less than he is given, or takes, credit for; and (3) Hillary is and has been going to be our next president, no matter what.
We should have gotten our own dilapidated house in order before blaming a loss on Rush. This party is a crying damned shame.
Not if Obama keeps losing states from here on out.
and we should be the LAST people in the world to behave like stupid obamabots or groupies.
true conservatives are independent-minded, self-sufficient, and able to think and reason for themselves, the exact opposite of the feeble-minded and needy class of people that the liberal nanny-staters have created.
IMO this election is too important and is about far more than playing some silly little political game, no matter who is selling T shirts.
there are some very evil forces bent on destroying our country and i pray that some serious patriots can come up with a whole lot better than 'operation chaos' to save america.
You make some very good points here. Hillary would make a horrible president, no doubt about it. And she’d definitely be tougher for McCain to beat than Obama.
The thing is I, for one, still don’t see her getting the nomination this year. I’m guessing that Rush doesn’t either, at least not at this point. Of course, if her campaign picks up enough momentum, and it starts to look like she’s got a chance to win the nomination, then I expect Rush to switch sides and start backing Obama.
We’ll see.
My older son of 28 has served, as had my father - and I, but for the first time, I will strongly discourage my new son (5)(and daughter) from the service unless things radically swing back.
Still, I cannot vote McCain.
But thank you for your post, and I do agree 100% that Obama is by far the weaker candidate.
While that does not guarantee McCain a victory in November by any means, it does mean, IMO, that the election becomes his to lose. - Bill
Hillary with fans in Wilmington, N.C. Sunday...
Who are we to question the wisdom of a radio disk jockey and his successful marketing campaign? The libs have their Al Franken, the “conservatives” their Limbo. You gotta worship one or the other!
Piss off. I almost hope we get the Clintons again. Talk radio heros deserve the fairness doctrine shoved up their asses if their work puts these vile bastards in office again.
I agree with you.

Here's the thing: with every election she wins at this point, it's a chance to claim the momentum and pick up the superdelegates.
If this was really about "chaos", Rush would end it now (she isn't going anywhere) or even be suggesting a trade off every other primary: Hillary in PA, Obama in the next one, then Hillary, then Obama.
By consistently throwing support to Hillary, the superdelegates and the press see momentum that legitimizes her with the party and, to a lesser extent, the public.
The GOP will get Hillary elected President by running a complete jackass like John McCain.
