McCain and Obama Tied Head-to-Head

It seems that all of this controversy from the Obama camp has cost him his 10 point lead against McCain.

An AP-Ipsos poll taken in late February had Obama leading McCain 51-41 percent. The current survey, conducted April 7-9, had them at 45 percent each. McCain leads Obama among men, whites, Southerners, married women and independents.

Clinton led McCain, 48-43 percent, in February. The latest survey showed the New York senator with 48 percent support to McCain's 45 percent. Factoring in the poll's margin of error of 3.1 percentage points, Clinton and McCain are statistically tied.

Hillary is now ahead of McCain in a head-to-head poll and Obama is tied. I wonder if her campaign will run with these numbers to prove that she is more electable then Obama? The more I think about it the more I think the Reverend Wright mess and the "big race debate" that followed is going to cost Obama this election.
