Non-Democrats Will Decide Indiana

More from the Howey-Gauge poll in Indiana: "The Democratic primary is going to be decided by non-Democrats. To be determined is which group -- Republicans or independents -- are going to decide this race."

The poll shows that self-identified Republicans favor Sen. Hillary Clinton, 50% to 44%, while independents favor Sen. Barack Obama, 54% to 38%.

Among Republicans, there "appears to be two kinds of Republicans: the 'Obamacans' as the Illinois senator likes to call them -- earnest Republicans deeply disappointed in their own party's performance on the budget, economy, social issues and the Iraq War -- and the Rush Limbaugh Republicans who are planning to crossover to vote for Sen. Clinton because they perceive her to be the weakest rival to U.S. Sen. John McCain in the November election."
