Gallup: Obama Catching Up To Hillary Again, But Still Hurt By Wright
Today's Gallup tracking poll shows that Barack Obama is starting to rebound after the Jeremiah Wright controversy dragged him down, but he still has ground to make up. Hillary Clinton currently leads 47%-45%, not as wide a lead as the 49%-42% advantage she held just two days ago.
Gallup's analysis notes that Obama's attempts to address the Wright flap, notably his Tuesday speech, might have been effective. But it's not all good news for him: "Still, Obama has yet to recover fully from the apparent damage done by the Wright controversy. It was only one week ago that Obama led the race by a significant six-point margin over Clinton, 50% to 44%."
