Dale,

I think the polls will be more interesting once there is a winner on the dem side and people can get a clearer comparison between the two candidates. These polls change so much from week to week and depend on who is doing the polling and what their agenda is, I am not sure I trust any of them right now. I saw a poll on cnn yesterday that said McCain had the highest negatives of those left in the race. I think McCain was close to 50%, Hillary was close to 40% and Obama was close to 31%. So if you want to look at just the negatives, then by the poll that I saw, McCain doesn't have a chance.

Personally, I don't care much if someone wins with 51% or 55% or 60%. I don't think the number has anything to do with how effective anyone will be in governing. I think what matters more is the ability to reach across the aisle and compromise on the issues that are the most contentious. And also to be wise in their policy decisions.
