As most people expected, Hillary Clinton leads the Democratic field for the 2008 presidential nomination. This is according to a Washington Post poll taken from May 29th to June 1st. The numbers:

Clearly, John Edwards is getting his butt kicked in the race. This is despite tons of free publicity as a result of his wife’s cancer announcement a couple of months ago. Given that he was the 2004 Vice Presidential nominee, things are not looking good for Edwards. He has dropped 6% since the April poll.

So why is Edwards even running with numbers this bad? Is it so he can bill $400 haircuts to his campaign instead of paying for them out of his own pocket?

We wouldn’t expect a multi-millionaire, ambulance-chaser lawyer like Edwards to use his own money for personal grooming expenses, would we?
Maybe Edwards should drop out of the race and go back to giving speeches about poverty to poor college kids at $55,000 a pop? These Democrats are such frauds!
As for Al Gore, this poll seems to dash the hopes of the radical Environmentalists; Gore would have only 17% support to Clinton’s 35% if he joined the race.
