3. no, jsamuel, I can assure you...

Obama's popularity in the party is very overstated on DU.

4. Rasmussen has been showing higher negatives for Obama than any other polling org.

So it could be an outlier.

At least the Obama campaign should hope it is.

5. Gee if he is LIKED so much better than Hillary how come she is

beating the pants off him in EVERY poll. And Edwards is climbing right up next to him and surpassing him in some polls. He is likable, but is he electable.
