Electability?

Don't listen to the GOPers behind the curtain. If the election were held today, Clinton would beat McCain; Obama, probably not.

RealClear Politics has the current snapshot in time.

Pennsylvania has Obama up 1.2 but Clinton outside the margin of error with a +6.8%
Ohio shoe McCain over Obama +3.4% with Clinton holding him off at +5.4%. And the dangling chads in Florida stay with McCain, handily, at +9.0%, yet Clinton with a shot +1.7%

Even Electoral-Vote.com shows the electability reality

280 Clinton
258 McCain


254 Obama
273 McCain


And what of my favorite Right leaning Pollster, Rassmussen. They've decided the Democratic nomination battle is over, and will stop tracking it.
However, while Senator Clinton has remained close and competitive in every meaningful measure, she is a close second and the race is over. It has become clear that Barack Obama will be the Democratic nominee.
We don't need no stinking elections, we have Rassmussen to decide for us.
