Who Should Drop Out? 22% Say Clinton, 22% Say Obama

As if you needed any further proof of how divided this Party is right now, it's glaringly displayed in the Rassmussen Poll of Democratic likely voters.

22% of Democrats Want Clinton to Drop Out; 22% Say Obama Should Withdraw

Twenty-two percent (22%) of Democratic voters nationwide say that Hillary Clinton should drop out of the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination. However, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that an identical number—22%--say that Barack Obama should drop out.

A solid majority of Democrats, 62%, aren’t ready for either candidate to leave the race.

And this statement pretty much sums up sentiments on KOS:

Forty-seven percent (47%) of Obama supporters think Clinton should drop out. Thirty-eight percent (38%) of Clinton supporters say Obama should drop out.

And then we have:

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

(Hard-Core Gore/Naderites?)

Putting it in better prospective is the sidebar on the page:
