This is interesting (none / 0) (#1)

Against McCain, Obama lost ground among women -- from 57 percent in February to 47 percent in April. Obama dropped 12 points among women under 45, 14 points among suburban women and 15 points among married women.

He also lost nine points or more among voters under 35, high-income households, whites, Catholics, independents, Southerners, people living in the Northeast and those with a high school education or less.
Problem is (none / 0) (#2)

same poll says HILLARY lost ground with women against Obama. And that Hillary gained ground amongst men.

I think this polling is garbage.

It's called the Wright effect (none / 0) (#8)

I don't believe BO has put that little problem behind him.  The voters he seem to have lost would be the ones to be most influenced by Wright's speeches.

not too meaningless (none / 0) (#14)

I don't see this as meaningless at all, I fear it will be the trend in the general. Obama is too ripe too pick and when you bite into it, you realize it shouldn't have ripened.
