Hillary Leads in Zogby Poll

Hillary Clinton leads Barack Obama in the latest Zogby International poll released yesterday.

The poll of 439 Democrats between February 22 and 24 shows Clinton on 33% with Obama on 25% as preferred Democratic nominee. Former Vice Presidential candidate John Edwards was third on 12%.

Although Clinton is up 4% on the previous poll in January, Obama has risen 11%.

And in a worrying sign for the Clinton camp, in a poll of 1078 likely voters, she trails both John McCain and Rudy Giuliani as preferred President. Hillary does have a solid lead on Mitt Romney.

On the same question, Barack Obama leads all three leading Republican candidates.
