5. This is interesting. I'd like another analytical opinion as to what is going on here.
I'm leaving out Hillary, she is known by everyone and she is the very definition of partisan to many Americans. But what I'm interested in is the polls for Obama and Edwards.

Against Ghouliani they both win by a almost exactly equivalent margin. I'm not interested in this. I'm interested in the other two polls.
Obama: 50%
Giuliani: 43%

Edwards: 50%
Giuliani: 44%

This is interesting to me. Who are the 3% of Americans who are sure they will vote for McCain when it's Edwards and unsure of their vote when it's Obama?

Obama: 52%
McCain: 39%

Edwards: 52%
McCain: 42%

And how do those 3% vote in this match up? Do they tend to vote Democratic against Romney the North-Eastern Republican? Or are they part of the 2% that votes for Romney, for sure, when Obama is the candidate and not Edwards? Or do they already pretty sure they support Obama against Romney but want to hear more from McCain?

Obama: 58%
Romney: 29%

Edwards: 64%
Romney: 27%

I guess I'd get my answer if I spent the money and bought the access to the full poll (if this is a poll where anybody can do that).
