The Field Poll is considered the gold standard among California surveys:
A startling surge of support for Barack Obama has catapulted the Illinois senator into a virtual tie with Hillary Rodham Clinton in California’s Democratic presidential primary, a Field Poll released Saturday shows…
But the Democratic numbers are the shocker. Clinton, a longtime California favorite, saw her once-commanding lead slip to two percentage points, 36 to 34 percent, in the new survey. That’s down from the New York senator’s 12 percentage point lead in mid-January and a 25 percentage point margin over Obama in October.
But with 18 percent of Democratic voters still undecided just days before Tuesday’s primary, the election is still up for grabs, said Mark DiCamillo, the poll’s director.
About three weeks ago, Clinton had a 31 percentage point lead over Obama in the Bay Area. Apparently that advantage is collapsing, perhaps because Edwards’ supporters there are breaking for Obama. Clinton’s lead in Los Angeles (which has roughly double the population of the Bay Area) remains strong.
Among Republicans, John McCain is leading Mitt Romney 32 to 24 percent. Mike Huckabee has 13 percent and Ron Paul has 10 percent.
Yay! Snatching California from Billary’s grip would be a huge boost to Obama’s momentum!
WHOA THERE! IF BLACK ASS RACKER BACKER GET IT THEN I AND OTHERS HERE ARE NOT EVEN GOING TO VOTE UNLESS WE VOTE REPUG WHICH WILL BE MY FIRST TIME! EAT THIS SHIT alice!

Clinton\’s commanding lead has been cut to two points, 36 percent to 34 percent…
I’m from Oakland (just across the bay from SF), and I can tell you that on a local level, massive Obama support has emerged virtually overnight. I have seen no similar surge in Clinton’s visibility. That, combined with Bill’s “gaffes” (the idea that he, a master campaigner, is hurting Hillary accidentally is pretty silly) makes me think that the DNC favors Obama ever since McCain pulled ahead. That said, I might have a different outlook if I lived in SF as Oakland is bound to be one of the friendliest cities in America to an African-American candidate.
-Lifelong liberal/socialist who’s still voting for Ron Paul rather than either of these faux-populist fascists.
Uhh, didn’t we hear stories like this coming out in the days ahead of the New Hampshire primary?
And didn’t HRC win that primary, by a large margin?
Look for the Clinton campaign to do ANYTHING necessary to win California.
Bill and Hillary are like two junkies, but instead of being addicted to heroin or speed, they’re addicted to power.
And power, as that at large war criminal Henry Kissinger once said, is the most powerful aphrodisiac/drug there is.
