Lots of military families in Cali -- which may explain why the linked polls show Clark as the best Dem. candidate against Bush in a California general election (running second to Dean in the primary). Those polls suggest that Bush v. Clark is a toss-up, while Bush is ahead of Dean by just over the margin of error.
The Cali polls also say that 47% are inclined not to re-elect Bush while 46% are inclined to reelect him (of course within the MOE), but the hard-core (i.e. will vote for/against Bush "no matter who the Democrats nominate" is much higher on the "not inclined to reelect" side).
