1. How's she doing against Thompson?

[Hideboh]

2. Hilary will be our next president

it's a done deal, I guess
bush clinton bush clinton
must be in that order

[Forkboy]

3. I can't believe McCain is still getting 38%

Some people's kids.

4. And how about the other democratic candidates?

What does it say about their match up with Guiliani, McCain, Romney and Thompson?

Isn't this rather like, uh, cherry picking?

[SaveElmer]

5. Not cherry picking if that is the only new result...

They haven't published updated polls on the other races yet...

I did provide a link...

6. I didn't say that YOU were doing the cherry picking.

Powerful interests are 'manufacturing consent' for Hillary to be the Democratic front-runner -- this is a blatant example, shouting her gains vs select republican nominees, without any mention of how the others stand.

I have to wonder why.

7. Funny that Rasmussen would be the target...

As until recently they have been the DU favorite...they are generally the most pessimistic as to Hillary's chances...

However, they poll on a daily basis, so am sure numbers for the others will be out shortly

8. They tend to rotate head to head match up questions weekly. Here are Obama & Edwards

Though they ask about the frontrunners more often of course.
