Hillary and Co. shouldn't be countin' no chickens ...

Democrats have been crowing - and crowing quite loud 'bout recent polls which indicate that voters prefer Democrats over Republicans in the 2008 presidential and congressional election.

Before the Dems start counting the proverbial unhatched chickens, they might wanna take a look at this:

"It is a paradox of the 2008 presidential race. By a wide margin, several polls show, voters want a Democrat to win — yet when offered head-to-head contests of leading announced candidates, many switch allegiance to the Republican. ...

"When registered voters were asked which party they would like to win the White House, they preferred a Democrat over a Republican by 8%. But in a race pitting [NY Sen. Hillary] Clinton against [former NYC] Mayor [Rudy] Giuliani, a Republican, the former New York mayor was favored by 10%. ...

"The poll also showed Mrs. Clinton trailing when matched against two other Republicans — Senator McCain of Arizona and a former Massachusetts governor, Mitt Romney."
