Obama's Nadir

Current polling suggests that his favorables and unfavorables may be finally approaching Clinton levels. Part Wright, part Clinton, part a horrible April. But at the same time, he continues to gain slowly among super-delegates. He's just 20 behind Clinton now. If the Michigan compromise holds, his likelihood of being the nominee approaches certainty. And McCain, in this period of massive Democratic bloodletting, still has no discernible lead over either of his competitors.
