AMAZING...Come from behind victory in Indiana!!!!
I'm making my second post to Hillary supporters requesting some information. Mind you, I never got a response to my question asking for examples of when the Obama campaign played the racecard, but I will try again. All last night and continuing through today I keep hearing how Hillary had a great come from behind victory in Indiana. Can someone please point me to an external poll (not some 3 month old INTERNAL Obama poll)that showed Obama as the forerunner leading up to Indiana? PLEASE?

1. It was always my understanding that Obama would lose IN
and lose BIG. A few polls had him up in front recently and that gave him hope that he could pull it off. Welp, he atleast made it close enough to render her win somewhat insignificant.

10. I think Hillary said "he was the favorite"
Edited on Wed May-07-08 08:00 PM by DavidD
(Adding to what you said.)

Not that there were a couple of outlier polls that showed him ahead. Obama being the favorite implies that the consensus of the polls was that he'd win.

Which is completely untrue. I guess she said something that she knew wasn't in accordance with the facts. Again.
