NH-08: Obama ahead of Clinton

Barack Obama is surging at the perfect time, and there is nothing Hillary can do about it.  If she attacks him, there will be a backlash in the polls.  The only way she can do it is through "independent" political action committees.  So as Obama has remained positive, he is surging in New Hampshire, a state where he trailed by about 20 points a few weeks ago:

NEW HAMPSHIRE DEMOCRATS
(Likely primary voters)
Barack Obama - 32%
Hillary Clinton - 31%
John Edwards - 18%
Bill Richardson - 8%

Of course, remember that New Hampshire will be greatly impacted by whatever happens in Iowa.  If Hillary can squeak out a win in Iowa, Obama's support could collapse in New Hampshire.

Yeah, I'm glad to see Hillary finally losing the edge. Not that I won't vote for her if she ultimately is the nominee, but I believe that we truly do need a change.
Still would like to see Edwards, though.

Comon Edwards! Get going!

To get to the water trough
Obama's horse will have to
traverse a desert and will be tired before reaching the coveted spot.

Was Powell not a sure win?

He had more chances than Obama has.Certainly
he would have had my vote.

Powell saw the writing on the
wall, and realized the TIME HAS NOT YET COME
in the United States. Maybe, in another few more years, it will.
