Description | WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Why is the latest ABC News-Washington Post poll released Wednesday different from all other polls? Because it shows Sen. Hillary Clinton passing a significant political milestone.
Sen. Hillary Clinton speaks at the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute presidential forum Wednesday.
For the first time, a majority of Democrats nationwide supports Clinton for their party's nomination. Clinton's support in the Washington Post-ABC News poll jumped 12 points from last month, to 53 percent. She's 33 points ahead of her closest competitor, Sen. Barack Obama.
That establishes Clinton as the clear national front-runner. Being front-runner means being a target of criticism from other Democrats. |
