I don't have the actual poll in front of me, but I believe it was mentioned on Countdown a few weeks ago. Even my Dad, who is a lifelong republican and up until a month or so ago was still a Bush appologist, likes Obama. Whenever they do "head to head" who-would-you-vote-for-in-this-matchup polls, Obama always wins. I think it was Romney and Giuliani that beat Hilary in those polls, but I don't remember for sure other than that she won some and lost others. But you know what I think Obama's secret is? He's the best Christian on either side.

Remember "Reagan democrats"? Maybe we'll now see "Obama Republicans".

On edit: I should also point out that I do not consider myself a supporter of Obama. He'd probably do a good job as president (though so would Hillary if she could get through the general) but he's coming off too moderate for me lately. He's a great speaker, and that goes a long way. Right now I think the biggest thing in his favor is electability.
