Rasmussen. 6/9. Likely voters. MoE 4% (5/12 results)

McCain (R) 35 (40)
Obama (D) 53 (51)

On 3/27, around the worst of the Wright stuff, Obama was up just 48-43. On 2/28, McCain was up 45-44. But those days are long gone. The trends are heavily in Obama's direction. And there's still plenty of room for Obama to widen his lead among Democrats:

6/9   Total   Men Wom  GOP Dem Other
McCain  35     38  33   75   9  34
Obama   53     52  54   18  81  47

5/12  Total   Men Wom  GOP Dem Other
McCain  40     42  39   87  10  38
Obama   51     50  51   11  83  45

McCain is bleeding Republicans up in the upper-left-hand corner of the continental U.S. I don't think they're too gung-ho for 100 more years in Iraq, or four more years of the Bush agenda.

And they know how to use computers.
