WOW Time/CNN Bush 50% Hillary 47%
“Now suppose Hillary Rodham Clinton were to run for the Democratic nomination for president. Suppose the 2004 election for president were being held today, and you had to choose between Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Democrat, and George W. Bush, the Republican. For whom would you vote, Clinton or Bush?” Take note this poll has gone from adult voters to registered voters.

W. Bush Hillary Clinton Not

1. But since Hillary's not running, this poll is worthless
still a good sign as it shows Bush can only narrowly beat the most polarizing candidate.

3. True
But this poll shows Dean doing bad against Bush compared to the other Democrats.

6. He's behind by 10 points
That's not as good as Kerry but it's not terrible.

7. Kerry is at 50-41, Dean is at 50-40
I don't see him doing "bad"--For any democrat to be within this range of Bush at this time is quite good. All the candidates are doing well.

8. Actually, Kerry is at 50-45, Dean at 52-42
Those are not bad at all at this point.

10. if that's the case then Bush remains static for all candidates
the rest simply are lower because of name recognition.

4. Me thinks
You could have ten different polls and 5 different results. Gallup has Lieberman up big. So I question the reliability of these polls.

9. My Stat teacher told us a poll w/ maring of error of 5% was basically
worthless...way too big a margin of error.

I start to suspect anything over 3%.

5. Who cares!
She Isn't running. The only reason she is cast in polls is to scare "morans" into forking over cash to the GOP.

Ch-Ching!! says Karl Rove.

11. onehandle hit the nail on the head.
thanks. Hillary running is nothing more than a right wing wet dream. I hope she knows this poll is bullshit, I believe she is smart enough to figure that out. Who do you thinks dems would likely vote for was the question iF- is the nomn aginst bush-was proably the question.
