McCain leads 46 percent to 40 percent in a hypothetical matchup against Obama in the November presidential election, according to the poll.
That is a sharp turnaround from the Reuters/Zogby poll from last month, which showed in a head-to-head matchup that Obama would beat McCain 47 percent to 40 percent.

In march?
from a poll?
lol
I don't know, it just seems like all the momentum he had has fizzled out because of that jackass reverend of his.
I believe that is correct.
This bit has hurt him.
I also believe it will be a non-issue in the main campaign.
dems only hope is for mccain to make speeches and statements to the press.
I hope you are right.
Why hasn't McCain suffered from being endorsed by infammatory, jackass white preachers who have much more screenplay and shout louder and wider than Obama's preacher?
Because if you're a white preacher, can spout any and it slides right by.
America may get past it profound racism one of these centuries, but it won't be in time for November. The Dems will have to mount a huge voter mobilization drive
After 8 years of Repug disasters on every front that will carry forward for many years, how can America re-elect a dubya duplicate? because his opponent is black (or a woman).
There are two obvious reasons that you are too stupid to understand.
And even if he does manage to win the nomination, the party itself is still in trouble because of how long this primary has took. Especially if it happens to go all the way to the convention. And with this new major roadblock...... This has been really bad month for Obama.
Since when is running for President of the United States an easy process free of adversity?
I guess I knew that it was coming. I just hoped that he could at the very least avoid something this wreckoning.
McCain is loading his quiver and waiting until the debris, that will be his opponent, is jettisoned out of the Democrat Convention.
I hope he continues to kick 'em while they're down, battered, and bruised by their own party.
It's gonna be entertaining.
1. What does infammatory mean?
2. What preachers of McCain's have said the U.S. was behind 9/11, cursed this country, etc.?
3. I really want an answer from you for #2.
4. If Obama loses, it won't be because of race. It's because he wants to tax the out of this country and has a lack of practical experience.
5. McCain isn't a 'Dubya duplicate', try reading sometime you twit.
6. Again, Obama won't lose because of race. For starters, it will be because of his 'plan' for America that raises the national deficit by $270 billion or whatever it is his first year in office.
We're in a recession headed for a depression, and Obama thinks the solution for all of that is socialism. THAT's why he's going to lose, not because he's a black man.
7. I hate liberal pussies who play the race card. you boutons.
I think this is a waste of thread count. Too early to exprapolate as anything can still happen before November.
No, because of the same reason Democrats usually lose Presidential elections. They run leftists against moderates. The majority of the country is moderate, they don't hate the rich nor favor big government. When liberals create class warfare or talk up their social programs, the only people listening are liberals... But they already had their votes in the first place.
Stubborn Democrats.
The Dems are spending money, too.
I live in PA. They're spending plenty.
Actually, you should be worried. The long primary race has energized the Democratic party in all 50 states.
You may or may not have noticed that Democratic turnout was two to four TIMES as large as GOP turnout in just about every state that held primaries/caucuses.
Some of that may have been GOPers switching just for the primary season, but enough of it wasn't to make a huge difference in the fall.
This fall will be less about who people want to vote for, and more about who people actually vote for. (it won't be about what people think, it will be about turnout)
Democratic primary turnout was spectacular in 1988 as well. Michael Dukakis rode that wave all the way to the White House.
Good point.
But GW is no Ronnie, and has no coattails for his VP to ride in on. Not that anybody but the hard core GOPers would vote for Darth Cheney...
As I have said before, the Dems will not be running against McCain. They will effectively run against Bush, and they will be successful.
I have been to some Democratic meetings, and you would be surprised at the motivation and energy level. There may be some acrimony between the Clinton/Obama camps, but I view it as probable that this will be set aside. No matter how much they might be snipping at each other now, both would rather eat poop than to see another 4-8 years of ruinous Bush policies...
The Dems have ALWAYS hated Bush.
It's the independents that will swing this thing. I don't think those votes are a gimme for the Dems.
McCain has enough of a Maverick label, and has butted heads with Bush, since '99 more than just about any other Republican. He is the best candidate to NOT have GW's unpopularity hung around his neck, and in case you hadn't noticed; the opinion polls show the Dem. congress even LESS popular than Bush.
Like 1972?
lol !!
I had thought this election was going to look more like 1988 with a close poular vote, or relatively close, and an electoral blowout but more and more I'm thinking 1972 when McGovern was wholeheartedly rejected by the voter.
Either way, this thing is over. Yeah I know, it's March, but barring McCain breaking the golden rule of politics ' Never get caught in bed with a dead woman or a live child' or the economy completely melting down and I do mean meltdown, I think it's safe to say this thing is done.
A lotta good that election did for the Republicans two years later...
In a tank.
