Yikes! I saw a set of polls that said (a) Hillary is preferred over Obama, (b)McCain would beat Hilary and (c) Obama would beat McCain.

Does that make no circular sense?

Hillary has a slight edge over Obama among Democrats, but she carries a lot of baggage that makes her vastly unpopular among non-Democrats. Some people who might not actually be pro-McCain may vote for him as a vote against Hillary. Obama doesn't have Hillary's baggage. He hasn't done enough to make him unpopular. There's no reason for anyone to vote against him.

Of course, there are those who would vote against Obama because he's black, just as there are those who would vote against Hillary because she's a woman. There's nothing to be done for those people except wait for them to die off.
