2008 Democratic Presidential Primary: Clinton 38% Obama 26% Edwards 15%
The recent election 2008 polls from Rasmussen Reports national opinion survey of Likely Democratic Primary Voters highlights the stability of a campaign that has started well before most Americans want to think about it. Once again, New York Senator Hillary Clinton is on top, this week attracting 38% of the vote.
Illinois Senator Barack Obama is in second place with 26% of the vote, unchanged from a week ago. Obama and Clinton are essentially even among African-American voters. Clinton leads Obama by 15 percentage points among women and by 7 among men.
Former North Carolina Senator and 2004 Vice Presidential nominee John Edwards remains in third place with 15% support. New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson is a very distant fourth, with just 3% of the vote.

Your point on the (somewhat)informative qualities of polls is well taken. Not meaning to be too contentious with regards to your entry, I think you might be interested in this On The Media segment which argues that not only is a campaign season of this length not unprecedented in our history, but also might be something many Americans are very interested in.
