Illinois Sen. Obama leads McCain by 12 percentage points -- 52 percent to 40 percent; New York Sen. Clinton leads McCain by 6 points -- 50 percent to 44 percent, the poll found.
About two-thirds of Americans disapprove of the way Bush is handling his job and think the war was not worth fighting, the newspaper said.
Age might be another obstacle for 71-year-old McCain, who if elected would be the oldest first-term president.
The percentage of Americans discouraged by McCain's age (27 percent) is more than double the number who would be less enthusiastic about supporting Obama, who would be the first African American president or Clinton, who would be the first female president, the Post reported.
