The Black World Today
It’s still more than six weeks until the Iowa primaries, but it seems a lot closer to the Democratic presidential contenders as the rhetoric among them intensifies. A few days after a column from Robert Novak revealed that Sen. Hillary Clinton’s camp was in possession of scandalous information about Sen. Barack Obama, a poll revealed that Obama had eased passed Clinton to claim the lead in Iowa.
A recent Washington Post/ABC News poll showed that Obama has edged into a lead over Clinton in Iowa, though the race remains close. Obama has 30% of likely voters, while Clinton has 26% and former North Carolina Senator John Edwards has 22%, the poll revealed. The poll shows that Obama has marginally increased his standing since a similar Iowa poll in August, which found Obama at 27%, with Clinton and Edwards at 26%.
