Apparently Sen. Obama is doing better than expected in Arizona. Do you think John McCain is getting a little nervous?
From Real Clear Politics:
For some reason, Barack Obama doesn't seem to suffer from a lack of name ID in Arizona. A new Cronkite/Eight Poll asked the following open-ended question: "Next year we will elect a new president. Is there a candidate you would like to see become the next president of the United States? If so, who?" Fifty-one percent didn't offer an opinion, but here are the results from the 49 percent who did:
- McCain 28
- Obama 20
- Clinton 18
- Edwards 5
- Giuliani 5
- Romney 4
Given his impressive results on that question, it's no surprise Obama finished at the top of a subsequent question asking Arizona Democrats for preferences among four main challengers for the party nomination:
- Obama 29
- Clinton 23
- Edwards 15
- Gore 12
- No opinion 21
