Obama is less electible in the G.E.? Explain the polls then...?

Hillary's claims that Obama was unelectable mostly came after the Rev. Wright tape first surfaced. At that time, his national standings took a serious blow, from which he has now mostly recovered. Hillary was trying to play on Democrats' fears that the tape would hurt Obama's chances in the national election, and therefore drum up support for herself. This strategy, however, seems to have failed her in the longterm, as she is now less popular than Obama in both the Democratic primary polls and in the general election polls.
