22% want Clinton to exit but…22% want Obama to do the same


Oy. The numbers are coming fast and furious. I often don’t post this stuff because everyone else does but this is one crazy-a$$ Democratic primary.

From Rasmussen:

A solid majority of Democrats, 62%, aren’t ready for either candidate to leave the race. Nationally, Clinton and Obama are running essentially even among Likely Democratic Primary Voters in the Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll.

Forty-seven percent (47%) of Obama supporters think Clinton should drop out. Thirty-eight percent (38%) of Clinton supporters say Obama should drop out. Those who remain undecided are a bit more likely to suggest that Obama should leave. But, it’s worth noting that less than half of Obama supporters say Clinton should withdraw, less than half of Clinton supporters say Obama should withdraw, and less than half of undecided voters say either should withdraw at this time.

…

Interestingly, Republicans are more eager to see Clinton drop out rather than Obama. Forty-one percent (41%) of GOP voters say the former First Lady should withdraw while just 24% say the same about the Senator from Illinois. Among unaffiliated voters, 30% say Clinton should drop out while 25% say the same about Obama.

My most favorite statistic of all the ones I’ve received just today:

Six percent (6%) of Democrats would like both Clinton and Obama to drop out of the race.

Well, my wishing that Joe Biden was still in doesn’t exactly mean the above, does it?

    I wonder if that 6% will climb if the infighting continues.

    I don’t know – isn’t it supposed to be that the longer you go on, the more people commit? But nothing is going like it’s supposed to right now.
