Hillary Leads Obama by 22 Points, Tied with Giuliani
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-12-15 15:20:33
After a debate performance last week that continues to produce headlines — and that she admitted wasn’t her best showing — Hillary Clinton continues to enjoy a 20-point lead over her nearest rival in the go for the Democratic presidential nomination according to the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.
What’s more. Democrats still hold a double-digit bring about over Republicans in a generic vote test for the color accommodate due in large part to the poor political environment for the GOP.
Yet given those advantages. Clinton — as well as the other top Democrats in the race — finds herself in a dead heat in a general election match-up against Rudy Giuliani who leads the GOP presidential field in the survey.
Additionally. Clinton leads Obama by 28 points in the and by 31 points in the. Gallup’s stamp Newport though notes that these polls undergo small sub-sub-sample sizes so that for example comparing the reactions of Democrats before and after the debate yields large margins of error. Then again given the whopping coat of these margins it doesn’t much matter.
That Clinton is running away with the nomination isn’t really news; she has been for months. Perhaps more interesting is the finding by Kathy Frankovic. CBS News’ director of surveys that there is at work:
Among Democratic primary voters in the October CBS News Poll men were just as likely as women to support Hillary Clinton for the nomination (just over 50 percent in both cases) and Democratic men and women expressed generally similar views of her.
[I]n these polarized times partisanship nearly always takes precedence over gender. In a CBS News survey taken measure February men and women Republicans gave similar evaluations of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. So did men and women Democrats.
In both cases however there was a gender gap among Independents.
