SurveyUSA: Obama 60% - Clinton 38%


Eve of VA Democratic Primary: No Late Charge from Clinton; Obama Will Get Larger Share of Delegates: 24 hours till votes are counted in the Virginia Democratic Primary, Barack Obama is positioned to capture a majority of convention delegates, according to SurveyUSA's final pre-primary poll, conducted for WJLA-TV Washington DC, WDBJ-TV Roanoke and WTVR-TV Richmond. Today it's Obama 60%, Clinton 38%, not materially different from a SurveyUSA tracking poll released 72 hours ago, which showed Obama 59%, Clinton 39%. Voters in the DC suburbs moved to Obama over the weekend, increasing his advantage there. Voters in the Shenandoah moved to Clinton over the weekend, increasing her advantage there. The movement was offsetting. Obama held his ground among voters under age 50, and gained ground among voters age 50+. Among voters age 65+, Clinton had led by 5 on Friday, now less.

2. Sounds good!
I like that Obama is gaining with the 50+ crowd, and I read another poll had him leading with Latinos!

:woohoo:

7. These people are dirty,
I'm not getting excited until the polls are closed and all votes are
counted. Watchout for all the insider job and dirties they will pull.

I'll keep mine on ice.

13. Absolutely...
...Clinton may be down, but she's still a Clinton and will not go quietly into that goodnight.

4. Virginia may be the beginning of the end now for Hillary's campaign.
I don't see how the Clintons can keep raising money, keep their super delegates in line and keep their demoralized supporters energized after this weekend.

It's all about to dry up like a hot rod without oil.

9. Everyone is unrealistically holding out until TX, OH, and PA. She won't be able to win by then...
...it's just unrealistic as hell.

6. lets not get ahead of ourselves
No ones goose is cooked. No Ones eggs are hatched. The fat lady has not sung. Overconfidence is bad, because then even a small loss becomes amplified.

12. SUSA
may be right on for MD and VA. That dosn't mean that Clinton is done anytime soon. That assumes that there will be no later losses for Obama. And that assumes that Clinton will prefer a graceful out at some point as opposed to a metaphorical fight to the death.

11. Please, wait until the 'poor' Hillary stories start hitting the airwaves

The media's main interest is keeping this a horserace... it's about the ratings

10. Don't trust polls! We need to assume that we are behind and have
some urgency. This is no time for celebration, guys!

14. I don't care what the polls say...
...we need to campaign like the numbers are reversed. It's what got us to this point, and what will get us over the hump. Eyes on the prize folks. Let's stay focused.

15. what a wonderful pie chart....GoBama!
I realize Hill's supporters are hoping for a come back with OH, TX and PA but she has no momentum at this point and could easily lose them.

17. Polls mean little
Some of us are getting carried away. Polls serve as little more than entertainment, as we found out in NH.
