Hillary Clinton has 5-point lead on Barack Obama: Republicans vote this Saturday

Well last night we saw that Democrat Hillary Clinton managed to gain a 5-point lead over her rival Barack Obama, Clinton had 42 percent of the votes, while Obama had 37 percent, and John Edwards had just 12 percent of the votes. Reuters say that the next big battleground for this presidential nominating contest will be in Nevada and South Carolina.

The Republicans get their chance to do battle where John McCain and Mike Huckabee fight to be the presidential candidate, with Mitt Romney trailing the pair of them. This is where things will start to hot up, as the Americans will be making their choice as to who they choose to replace President George W. Bush.
