By a wide margin, Democrats view Sen. Hillary Clinton "as the party's candidate best positioned to win the general election," a new Washington Post-ABC News Poll found, with 54% saying the former First Lady is the most electable candidate.
In the nomination race, Clinton leads with 45%, followed by Sen. Barack Obama at 30% and John Edwards at 12%.
Key finding: "Clinton's initial support for the Iraq war is not proving a significant impediment to her bid."
Hillary Clinton's lead continues to grow. As a supporter of Hillary, people have told me to worry because the frontrunner always falls. I'm not worried. I have full confidence in my candidate and know she can pull through and keep the momentum. Last week, Hillary squared off against the Pentagon on Iraq and she also put in progress new legislation with Senator John Kerry (D-MA) to push for an Iraq withdrawal. She's still doing her job as Senator and running for President and I'm proud. Tonight is the CNN/YouTube debates and I fully expect the other 7 candidates to gang up and try to bring Hillary down. She can pull through!
The CNN/YouTube debates will air on CNN at 7 PM EST. The Green Room will bring you a full analysis in a possible special episode after the debate.

You know what I love the most about her being the frontrunner is that she absolutely defies what the Dems who say "She can't win." She holds the lead not only in the Dem primary but also in the general election in some polls. Clearly she can win since she already is. It's preposterous that people even use that as an argument anymore. And you're right Chaunce, her lead is widening. Ah, the sweet smell of a woman in the white house. Crossing fingers...
