The latest round of SUSA polls shows that Clinton has narrowed the electability gap overall. While she still lags slightly behind Barry, I've noted the following:
1. He's still essentially tied in Massachusetts with McCain--four polls in a row inside the MOE.
2. Both trail McCain in New Mexico, with BHO trailing by six, Hillary by three.
3. In Missouri, Hillary leads McCain by one, while Obama loses by eight. Even 20% of the AA vote goes to McCain vs. Obama.
4. In Ohio, Clinton is up 11 over McCain while Obama trails by two.
I think it's downhill for Obama from here. I just don't see his support all that wide or deep. But can Clinton pull this out? She needs to win PA by 10+%, stay close in North Carolina and win Indiana by some margin. Obama's tent is getting smaller and smaller.
Then maybe the supers will stop and think... I'm not counting on it however.
