Uh-Oh
Let's do the caveats in advance:
1. general election matchup polls are nearly meaningless at this point.
2. the results below may not reflect the reaction to Obama's race speech.
But it does seem that the Jeremiah Wright flap has badly hurt Barack Obama...for the moment.
Here's Ohio.
Here's Missouri, where Obama beat Clinton...and Clinton v. McCain now.
And, most amazing, look at Massachusetts.
As I said, these numbers aren't cast in stone. There may be a major Obama revival as news of his three substantive speeches this week begins to percolate in the general public. But it seems clear that the Jeremiah Wright controversy is a big problem for the Obama campaign.
