Huffpollstrology: Candidates' Horoscopes, Polls And More For April 29

Polls have come to dominate the media's horse race coverage of political campaigns. Pundits and reporters constantly use them to tell us who's hot and who's not -- but skip over the fact that plummeting response rates and variables like undecided voters and margins of error and often render these polls useless as anything other than lightweight diversions on par with horoscopes and political betting lines. Our HuffPollstrology chart helps keep you up to date on the latest poll results, along with the latest horoscope predictions, and the latest online political betting lines - and will hopefully help the polling junkies in the media keep polls in the proper perspective.

obama	46% Gallup Tracking Poll	LEO August 4, 1961 You may feel self-sacrificing where other people are concerned. But perhaps you think they need your help more than they actually do.

Mccain vs clinton in the General election
mccain	47% Rasmussen Poll	VIRGO August 29, 1936 The influences around today are enlightening but they could also be misleading. You need to stay very grounded to get the best use of Neptune.

Try to enjoy the challenge. (Daily Mail).	39.5% chance of winning
clinton	44% Rasmussen Poll	SCORPIO October 26, 1947 There are rather confusing and uncertain influences around today, so try to do less rather than more until the dust settles. It won't be easy to be clear in your focus, since you can't find enough motivation. Luckily later in the day you'll suddenly find your focus and be on your toes. You'll be zapping around at top speed, but try as well to be more reflective. Luckily your enthusiasm will sweep others along with you. (Daily Mail).	12.2% chance of winning
