Super Tuesday polls

The democratic race has really tightened up the past few days, with Obama edging ever closer to Clinton.  For some time now Clinton has held an overall lead in the 20 some states holding primaries on February 5th, but not anymore.   

On the republican side, John McCain now has the commanding lead over his opponents, mainly Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee.  Interestingly, in Missouri, Huckabee is running a strong second.

Illinois is very strong for Obama and McCain, while Missouri sees Obama beginning to make great inroads into what was Clinton territory.  In California, the biggest prize of all, Obama has also begun to cut into a previous strong lead for Clinton.
