Edwards has also been even or slightly ahead of Clinton in Iowa for a while now and I suspect he is still trouncing everyone in South Carolina.

I might be forgetting a poll, but the only SC polls from the last few months that I can remember are these ARG polls:

both of which have Clinton in first place.

Not that polls nine months out really matter anyways.

My mistake.  I incorrectly remembered him being ahead in the December poll from ARG and assumed he would continue to lead.  On the contrary, it seems the more recent poll that you cited shows him slipping here.  I had not seen the one from February.  However, as Gov. Bacon King said we are still nine months away from the actual vote and a lot can happen in that time.

I'm surprised Obama helps Edwards (according to this poll).

I am almost completly convinced that Fred Thompson will take on John Edwards in 2008

This poll is crap. Way out of line with every other poll out now.

It depends on how they screen the voters and what sample they use, that's why you get descrepicies.

Is there some reason so many continue to leave the "c" out of Obama's name?
