SUSA Today to reveal Clinton pulling to within 5 in N.Carolina

[sunonmars]

Just saw it

its Obama 49 to Clinton 44

On the SUSA poll, it is about white flight from Obama:

With one week until votes are counted in the May Primary the 10-point lead that Barack Obama has had for two months is halved, to now 5 points - Obama 49%, Clinton 44%, according to SurveyUSA's 7th tracking poll, conducted ABC11 Eyewitness News.

In the last four polls, over the past two months, Obama has led by 10, 8, 10, and 9 points. Based on polling results, white voters are key. Since January, Clinton had led among Carolina whites by 14, 19, 17, 22 and 23 points. Now by 31 points.

In the Triangle, Clinton is up 9 points, week-on-week; Obama is down 3; a net swing of 12 points to Clinton.

Among unaffiliated voters, Clinton has overtaken Obama for the first time in 2008, though the difference is small and within the sub-group's margin of sampling error. The two tie among moderates. Obama leads slightly among liberals. Clinton leads slightly among conservatives.

44% Clinton
49% Obama
4% Other
3% Undecided

1. I was there over the weekend and plenty of whites were supporting him

But maybe the resurgence of this Wright crap has changed things. GRRRR!!!

[MadBadger]

2. He will win NC

[sunonmars]

3. apparently this poll was taken before the Wright flap, so it may be worse.

5. It will absolutely get worse for OBlameless.

[Dawgs]

15. Why do YOU only show up when YOU think things are going bad for Obama.

And when you do you say nothing.

It's quite embarrassing.

[durrrty libby]

17. You should be embarrassed for supporting such a Fraud

[BeyondGeography]

4. Enjoy the peak

Because that's it.

[RememberWellstone]

6. Hehehehehehehe!

Good news indeed.

[sunonmars]

7. The Triangle swing is bad news for Obama.

[Jersey Devil]

8. This is not the SUSA poll

They hire SUSA to conduct the interviews but they do no use SUSA calling lists, SUSA methodology, etc. In other words, SUSA just collects the information for them.

9. After this press conference, Reverand Wright shouldnt be an issue anymore.

[sunonmars]

10. He's looking like a fool so far

[olkaz]

11. Wow, I wonder what your agenda is?

Have you ever thought he didn't look like a fool?

[JackORoses]

14. this dude has been a douchebag for the longest time

haven't seen him around for a long time.

The Hillmites are crawling out of the woodwork for Wright like a pack of brain-starved zombies.

[Hoof Hearted]

13. Yeeeeaaaah............ Right!

I know why the Kool-Aid is so strong. Kool-Aid was born in Hastings, NE, a town known mostly to residents of the area for it's mental hospital. True story.

[Hoof Hearted]

12. Woooo Hooooo! THREE CHEERS FOR THE ~LADY~

Wait for the polls later this week!

18. He was up 23 a week ago. That has been cut in half. It will only get better

People are seeing him for the Fraud he is

[IDemo]

16. The current RCP average is Obama +12.6

If you replace the SUSA number with a +5, the new average is +11.8. Hardly a concerning number for our next president.
