Edwards LEADING by 4 points in SC! (edit: among whites)
Edited on Thu Jan-24-08 06:42 PM by Prefer
Poll from today on MSNBC.

They referred to it in the ongoing discussion of "Hillary vs Obama" on Tucker.

Funny that the leader is not news, but #2 and #3 in the race are the leading story.

How transparent can they get?

When the hell are they going to yank that fucker off the air? I am SOOO tired of him and Pat and Bill "I'm a HillShill but I won't admit it" Press trashing Edwards and Obama and giving the Clintons a free pass.

:argh:

Hey, Bill P., you and your Baby Boomer Clintonista pals may want to go back to the '90s but the rest of the us want to MOVE FORWARD, you a-hole!!!!

11. And apparently whites no longer have any use for Obama?
10% with whites for Obama, 4-5% with blacks for Edwards. Let's see what happens on Super Tuesday.

10. If Obama didn't swiftboat the Clintons on race Edwards would have a shot at winning SC
Thanks to the swiftboating Obama is up to 73% with blacks and will probably be close to 80% when undecideds break. That gives him a nearly seventy point lead over Edwards among half the population. Before he swiftboated the Clintons he was in the 40's with black voters.
