Polls Show Clinton Closing Gap on Obama
ABC News: Polls Show Clinton Closing Gap on Obama
Four days before the Democratic primaries in Indiana and North Carolina, Sen. Hillary Clinton won the endorsement of Indiana's largest newspaper and has cut Sen. Barack Obama's once imposing lead in North Carolina to single digits.
Clinton's come-from-behind effort also picked up some momentum from a national poll that showed her now in a virtual tie with Obama.
The national survey by the Pew Research Center gave Obama a 47-45 lead over Clinton, a statistical tie when you take in the poll's margin for error. That marks a big mood swing for Democratic voters since Pew's March survey gave Obama a 49-39 lead.
Next Tuesday could be yet another make-or-break moment for the candidates. A victory in Indiana coupled with a close race in North Carolina would bolster Clinton's argument that she is the candidate to take on Republican Sen. John McCain in the general election.
