1. It's becoming a two way race over there
John needs to do something quick.

2. Edwards is not going to go anywhere.
He's a completely known quantity, and so is Clinton. Obama still has the most room for upward movement.

3. I agree, even though it's still a small gap between him and the tie Obama and Clinton have.
Who knows where the 7% undecided will go, and who the second tier voters will vote for if their candidate is unviable.

18. Edwards is up 3 points from 20% two weeks ago
Clinton stayed the same. Edwards is up 3 and Obama is up 2. This poll is good news for Edwards and Obama. If they continue the trend and knock Clinton back to 3rd place, it should make things interesting.

4. Another tie at the top, with Edwards struggling to stay in the game.
For whatever it's worth: SV is a Repug polling firm.

5. Struggling? 23 percent compared to Obama-Clintons 29 percent? That's struggling?
He's got to do something, but he's NOT struggling.

7. Ok.
Perhaps struggling is a bit too harsh. But the trend is not promising for JE right now (this graph does not include this poll).

19. Edwards went from 20% to 23%
Maybe he stopped the bleeding now that he's finally spending money on advertising in the state.

Edited on Tue Nov-27-07 11:48 PM by Catch22Dem
I hardly call that struggling

ON EDIT: but you're right about that trend

9. Kucinich 1%?
I don't believe it.

I am even more shocked about Clinton and Obama being so far ahead with their globalist and war agenda.

17. Other polls had Hillary at 41%
Kucinich is not campaigning in Iowa. He's focusing on New England states and the North East in general.

10. When voters find out that Obama is an homophobia enabler
they will drop him like a hot potato.

14. Obama: LGBTs are sick fucks that can be cured
Edited on Wed Nov-28-07 12:09 AM by IndianaGreen
Obama may have not spouted such words, but his actions with "ex-gay" McClurkin spoke louder than those words.
