From Political Wire:
Illinois Poll:
In Illinois, a new American Research Group poll shows Sen. Barack Obama leading the Democratic presidential race in his home state with 37% support, followed closely by Sen. Hillary Clinton at 33% and John Edwards way back at just 10%.
On the Republican side, Rudy Giuliani leads with 30%, followed by Fred Thompson who jumped into second place with 21%, Sen. John McCain at 12% and Mitt Romney at 11%.
No surprises there given Senator Obama is the senator from Illinois.
National Poll:
The latest USA Today/Gallup Poll shows Sen. Hillary Clinton leading the Democratic presidential race with 42% support, followed by Sen. Barack Obama at 26% and John Edwards at 16%.
On the Republican side, Rudy Giuliani leads with 30%, trailed by Fred Thompson at 20%, Sen. John McCain at 16%, and Mitt Romney at 9%.
GO HILLARY! While I (John) support Hillary Clinton for the Presidency, I do want to note that Rich supports Senator Barack Obama, Kevin supports Governor Bill Richardson, and Leah is still candidate shopping. Also...
"Opposition to the Iraq war has reached a record high," a new USA Today/Gallup Poll finds. As a result, President Bush's approval rating has reached a new low of 29%.

BIG BROTHER 8
I love this show. Have watched it since 2001. This season is no different. Hillarious and stupid houseguests make for an interesting summer. Take a look at this clip from Sunday night's episode when a houseguest has a breakdown over a bad picture.
and finally from me...

The soundtrack to the motion picture Hairspray is in stores today and I'm quite impressed. Go pick up or download a copy and check out the movie on July 20th.
