Clinton's departure helped McCain slightly among Democrats (-83% v. - 86.4% in May). Until June, McCain maintained a better score within his own party than either Obama or Clinton did within their party. But now as the only contender, Obama fares better among Democrats than McCain does among Republicans. Obama and McCain are gaining equal parts among Independents; however, Obama scores higher. Clinton's score improved. McCain scores better with Democrats than Obama does with Republicans, indicating more Democrats are likely to promote him than Republicans promote Obama. He also scores better than Clinton given the same scenario.
