Polls prove Hillary is the candidate to beat in the general election

Despite the common myth that Hillary can win the primary but never a general election, she is (according to the polls) the best one to beat the Republicans should she win the nomination. A lot of people like to ignore polls, but when polls from Fox News to CNN to Rasmussen all indicate the same trends, the truth can't be ignored.

It's spin if you ask me. This nonsense about Hillary not being electable. Obama supporters (some of them I will say) try to portray Hillary as unelectable, and Republicans have been trying to do their own reverse psychology on voters too. The truth is in the numbers, and she's ahead.

And check it out:

They take an average of 5 major polls that pit candidates from both parties together. Overall she leads Giuliani by +5%, Obama only leads Giuliani by +.6%.

She leads Fred Thompson by +10.7%, while Obama leads Thompson by +9.7%

She leads Mccain by +4.6%, while Obama leads Mccain by +3.7%

She leads Mitt Romney by +11.7%, while Obama is close and leads Romney by +11.4%
