New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton has significantly widened her lead over Illinois Sen. Barack Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination in the wake of a dispute over handling foreign policy, a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds.
The survey, taken Friday through Sunday, puts Clinton at 48% — up 8 percentage points from three weeks ago — and Obama at 26%, down 2 points. Among Democrats and independents who "lean" Democratic, former North Carolina senator John Edwards is at 12%.
Bottom Line: As Hillary continues to widen her lead, making an election between someone you can't vote for and someone you dislike all the more inevitable (once again) come November 2008.
I really had wished that the cycle of two ruling families would have ended this election. (sigh)
