The Honeymoon Is Over


In the latest Gallup Daily tracking poll, Sen. Clinton has the most significant lead over Sen. Obama since February 7th. Clinton's 49% to Sen. Obama's 42% shows that her momentum is increasing quickly. While the battle for the super delegates is the most important game, these numbers show the shifting attitudes of Democrats across the nation who are sure to influence the super delegate votes. The super delegate system is set up to benefit a candidate like Clinton anyway. I have repeatedly stated that Hillary Clinton is from the house that built the modern day Democratic party. The Clinton's are the Democratic party and it will take some extreme measures to tare the nomination away from her. These numbers mean everything, Democrats are getting over the 'honeymoon' period with Obama and are starting to realize that he is just another politician willing to make all the promises in the world to get elected. His gilded image has been tarnished and the Clinton campaign has benefited; The real winner here is Senator John McCain. McCain leads both Clinton and Obama in the Gallup Daily Poll. McCain has a 47% to 43% lead over Obama and 48% to 45% lead over Clinton. McCain has been very presidential in the last couple weeks refusing to go negative on Obama and handling his own controversies like a true gentleman. The 'hope' for a socialized America is losing taste with many Americans. I am confident that if the Democrats do not get their act together soon, the Presidency will be wrapped in a red, white, and blue bow for Senator John McCain.
