I Don't Understand The Talk That Obama Needs To Show He Can Win A Big State.....

[global1]

Why? This is just the primary to select a nominee. Will it be Hillary or Barack? Why does he have to win a state like California to show he's a stronger candidate? As long as he continues across this country and wins or comes within a reasonable percentage margin and wins the delegate count - he is as qualified to win the GE as Hillary.

I ask you - if Barack turns out to be the Dem nominee - does that mean that California Dems won't vote for him in the GE?

No - all of us will rally around the Dem nominee and vote for whomever it is.

Showing one can win in a 'big state' in the primaries has no bearing on whether they can win in that same state in the GE.

2. I agree. That big state talk baffles me. Right now, its about gettin delegates.

3. he'll win all the big Dem states in the GE anyway

it's a dumb argument. He does have to win more delegate though, and winning some big states would be helpful in that respect.

So that's done.

7. I also don't buy that "he sounds like a preacher, he has no specifics" line. or the "name one

accomplishment" crap. Please. Hey, I dig Hilly and the big O. But I think many do not realize that Obama is a phenom that is only starting to catch on. I just sense it. (And I am not even a rabid supporter)
