The Polls



Lets look at Indiana and North Carolina Polls before the vote on Tuesday.

In Indiana we have a new poll from the respected pollster, Zogby. In this poll Obama leads Clinton by two points, a surprise victory here would be great for Obama. Here are the Results:

Obama 43 %

Clinton 41 %


A victory in Indiana and North Carolina for Obama could finish the Race. The RCP average of Polls has Clinton ahead by 5.8% ahead in Indiana. This is small margin after the mess that the Obama Camp has been in over the past few weeks.


Lets look at North Carolina Polls. Obama is more sure of winning this state.

The RCP average of Polls has Obama leading by 7%.


The Zogby Poll has Obama leading by 9%

If Obama can win over ten points in North Carolina and and win Indiana, and that a big if, he is on his way to the Nomination. On the other hand of Obama and Clinton split the result, Obama takes North Carolina and Clinton takes Indiana we are back at the start again, its down the margin of victory and Defeat. Tuesday could define the election of 08 in the Democratic Race.

Reagan and the Left

Newsweek: Interesting article, has the left finally caught up with the fact that Ronald Reagan was a great President? It shows that there is a God, and the left can learn, George W. Bush next in line for revision?

The Poison Sky - Dr Who Review

The Doctor Who News Page: The Top Drama again on BBC 1. The Poison Sky was great, dramatic, had to watch it a second time. Did you see Billie Piper as Rose Tyler, blink and you missed her. Must admit at the end when the Doctor teleports up to the the Sontaran Space Ship to give them a choice, I would have sent automatic bomb and blown them away. Does that make me more or less human?
