I Rest My Case

A new Time magazine poll compares potential general election match ups:

• Obama 48%, McCain 41%
• Clinton 46%, McCain 46%

According to the poll director, the difference is that "independents tilt toward McCain when he is matched up against Clinton But they tilt toward Obama when he is matched up against the Illinois Senator."

Interestingly, Democratic voters favor Clinton over Obama for the Democratic nomination by a margin of 48% to 42%.
