Poll question: Odds Obama will beat Hilary for the nomination.
At this time has a 5% chance to beat Hillary, in my estimation. In my opinion, he's the only Dem who has a chance.

What's your opinion of Obama's chances?

2. I'm thinking it's 50-50 right now.
But I'm very hopeful.

3. Too much good stuff happening- I say 75%
I've felt this way since I joined up.
:party:

9. I want to be that optimistic...

But I'm afraid of being over confident, in spite of the good stuff happening.

I hope you're right, though -- and if we sweep it, I'm ready to party before we get down to work again!

4. the talking heads were ruminating on Hardball today
FWIW they concluded the Republicans really fear an Obama run.

7. And who puts much faith in the talking heads?
They know little how people outside the beltway really feel.

5. I think Hillary's chance of getting the nod is 50-50, so there's a 50% chance that a non-Hillary
candidate will get the nod. I'd say that Obama has the better part of that 50%, though with a sizeable chunk for Edwards, and another chunk for the rest of the candidates.

11. I think he's got maybe 10%, Edwards maybe 5%,
And Hillary then 85%. The Republicans I think have about a 40% chance of taking the White House again. Multiply those, and that would give Hillary even odds to capture the White House.
