From NBC/NJ's Carrie Dann
DALLAS, TX -- On the day of the last Democratic debate in battleground state of Ohio, Bill Clinton has sunny predictions for his wife's performance in the Buckeye State.

"I've just been in Ohio -- looks like she's going to win Ohio," he predicted. "She's winning there. It looks good."

He later plugged her experience and change-making potential: "Change you can count on is coming from her. And you know it. You know she'll always have your back."

Talk about a death touch.

1. She may win Ohio. But according to Bill AND Hillary, she HAS

to win Texas. And she ain't gonna win Texas.

[bunnies]

3. Texas no longer counts.

PA is the new TX.

[hendo]

16. Didn't you know

if you vote against her your vote doesn't count?

[jgraz]

5. She won't win Ohio

Hillary has seen her last primary win. It's over.

6. I have personally convinced... two "independents"...

aka... people who won't call themselves republicans anymore... to vote for Obama in the Primary and november. Obama's ground game in Texas is pretty impressive.

[ORDem]

2. Yeah, Bill, care to share the evidence of your assertion?

=crickets=

[Eurobabe]

4. She won't win OH either.

I'll eat a big fat fucking crow if she does. :hi:

20. It must be an Ohio crow

fed on Ohio cornfield left-overs. I'll be glad to serve it to you. Bookmark this thread.

[Eurobabe]

21. Are we on DEFCON? ?

LN, I'd be glad to eat your Ohio crow, just make sure you serve it up rare, with a side of cranberry sauce. :hi:

[liberalnurse]

22. You have a bet!

:thumbsup: :pals:

[jenmito]

7. But HOW MUCH will she win by? If not by at least 15%, she's finished. n/t

[NJSecularist]

8. What's Bill supposed to say?

"She's going to lose Ohio"

??

[debatepro]

13. He should say....

"She will win Ohio... but only if we all continue to work hard and GOTV."

It gives people a stake in the success of the campaign.

[Shine]

14. Exactly. It's not terribly surprising he'd have that perspective

:eyes:

[cali]

9. hmm. bill's in TX and doesn't predict she'll win there but

says she'll win OH. I doubt it. OH is trending toward Obama at a fast clip. He may even sweep "mini-Tuesday".

[K Gardner]

12. I know you have Vermont in the bag for him ! Can you do anything about RI ??

[better tomorrow]

10. Didn't he say that about Texas, too?

and Wisconsin, and, and, and....

[Seabiscuit]

11. Not to my recollection.

[better tomorrow]

18. I was just trying to be sarcastic.....

guess it backfired.

[Az_lefty]

15. Bill's becoming delusional, too much time hanging with a bush

[damntexdem]

17. Hey, Bill, it USED to look like she'd win Ohio.

Now Ohio's in play. And it used to look like she'd win Texas, but now it looks like Obama will win here.

Hey, maybe you should stick with RI. It looks good for HRC there. Of course, by Tuesday, March 4 ...

[Thrill]

19. Keep on talking Bill

[OhioChick]

23. Apparently,

Bill hasn't been listening to what the people of Ohio are saying.
