California Poll: Clinton 38, Obama 33, Edwards 12
Thursday, January 17, 2008

The first Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of California’s Democratic Presidential Primary shows Hillary Clinton leading Barack Obama by five percentage points. It’s Clinton 38% Obama 33% and John Edwards at 12%. Dennis Kucinich picks up 3% of the vote and 13% are not sure.

Obama is viewed favorably by 80% of Likely Democratic Primary Voters, Clinton by 78%, and Edwards by 68%.

Eighty percent (80%) believe Obama would be at least somewhat likely to win if nominated. Seventy-eight percent (78%) say the same about Clinton.

Sixty-four percent (64%) of Clinton’s supporters are “certain” they will vote for her and 65% of Obama voters say the same about their candidate. Just 50% of Edwards fans are that “certain” of their support.

7. 20% of voters in Califonia still undecided. That is a large margin.

8. Still blows the original poster's point out of the water

Not that Obamaniacs ever let the facts get in the way of some good hyperbole. The Rasmussen numbers show Obama dipping back to 30% after a high of 34%, while Clinton slowly rises, suggesting that she is picking off the undecideds.

Better luck next time. :hi:

9. Preferring Edwards, Obama, Dodd, Richardson and Biden over triangulating Hillary
makes me and "Obamaniac?" Ok. Thinking she is the only awful candidate running for the Dem nomination makes me an "Obamaniac" I guess.

Actually, I thought it was a new poll since today is Thursday. I am not good with dates. But don't let that stop you from being a complete asshole. :hi:

12. Exposed for what?
I have always thought that Hillary was our worst candidate. It is no secret that I wouldn't vote for her if she was the only Democrat running. :hi:

10. Yep. It's all over but the victory lap.
As President Dewey once said, "Truman will do anything to win."

13. California is, obviously, important, but since it is not a winner-take-all
primary, a close vote will keep things competitive. Maybe the March primaries will be relevant, after all. ;)

14. If Edwards can squeak out 15% I'll be happy
with 15% of delegates he can crown Obama at the convention.
