NJ: Clinton 45%, Obama 21%, Edwards 16% (Ghoul up by 51 points among Republicans)

[draft_mario_cuomo]

HRC's lead is not surprising, given the New York media market's dominance over most of the state. She probably has gotten more coverage in parts of the state over the past six years than even NJ's own senators! Ghouliani is another example of this, as he is at a whopping 61% in NJ--51 points ahead of second place McCain. The real battle in NJ is for delegates and Obama and Edwards are above the 15% threshold to collect delegates. It also seems Edwards is catching Obama in NJ. In most NJ polls he has lagged well behind, sometimes being in the single digits.

31% for Clinton, 31% for Obama, 14% for Edwards.

Clinton drops 3% from the previous poll, Obama picks up 6%.

Obama's looking inevitable.

2. That was a NH poll from about a week ago. HRC has always had a huge lead in NJ, as has Ghouliani nt

3. You know, for the first time, I'm starting to worry -

is Hillary "peaking too soon?" (Heads up, Edwardsians and Obamanians -- that's about the only argument you have left against Our Girl -- Start using it! Good luck, Canutes!)
