MSNBC: CLINTON WINS OHIO!!! SIZEABLE LEAD IN TEXAS!!!! COMEBACK QUEEN!!! TRUE GRIT!!!

[itsrobert]

Looks like she's going to win Ohio and Texas. Looks like the gloss is off the Obama campaign. CONVENTION FIGHT LOOMS.

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

1. The Comeback Crone!

Sorry... I wanted to claim it before an Obama supporter came up with it.

[ccpup]

8. absolutely love that label, Crone

a wise, very powerful woman who can see far into the future and learns from the past. Not a bad thing to have for a Madame President, right?

:evilgrin:

[Lucinda]

17. I've been thinking about all your chart work tonight.

And smiling. :)

[ccpup]

31. ah, thanks

got some PM drubbing for it, but still think I'm callin' it right this time out.

:hi:

[Lucinda]

53. Looks that way to me as well.

Nice work!

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

70. MSNBC called it with 55% of votes counted - no bias there

and they will be counting ballots in Obama areas till 4 AM.

[rodeodance]

83. you people are acting like a bunch of babies!

[WillYourVoteBCounted]

92. your multi millionaire candidate is destroying the democratic party

I've worked hard to see to it that people's votes counts, and it pisses me off to see an election called before the friggin votes are counted. Especially at 55%. I know about how corrupt elections are in Ohio and Texas, thats nothing new. I predicted problems there.

Hillary is a huge crook - where do you think the $54 Million came from?

Why do you think her tax returns will never see the light of day.

She didn't even write her own book, it took a friggin village to write it.


If she ends up with the nomination, then many states will lose their democratic majorities.
If not this year, then the next election.

The Clinton's have shamed the democratic party, they enabled the right wingers to
denigrate the name "Democrat".

What a rotten crook who doesn't mind taking the Democratic Party down, its just $54 million
more for her pockets to line.

[ruggerson]

34. lol

[jlake]

2. She's the comeback lady ~ But she'll run away with this before the convention!

[buff2]

11. I wonder what happened to the unbeatable Obama??

I'm loving this! :toast:

[Unsane]

3. Obama will win TX

[itsrobert]

6. Don't think so

But keep hope alive. ;)

[Unsane]

7. What are you basing it on?

[ccpup]

14. at 9:26 PM Texas time: Hillary 50.35 and Barack 47.60

http://enr.sos.state.tx.us/enr/mar04_136_state.htm

[Iceburg]

22. CNN exit polls say otherwise ...

Rhode Island -

Male (43%) - 56% Obama, 43% Clinton
Female (57%) - 58% Clinton, 41% Obama

Ohio -

Male (41%) - 52% Obama, 47% Clinton
Female (59%) - 54% Clinton, 45% Obama

Texas -

Male (43%) - 52% Obama, 46% Clinton
Female (57%) - 53% Clinton, 46% Obama

----------------------
Now crunching the numbers ...
If the above exit poll numbers hold ...
Clinton wins RI with 53%
Clinton wins Ohio with 52%
Clinton wins Texas with 52%

Hayhoooooooo...A trifecta for Hillary

[skooooo]

78. Not so fast...

The caucus will go to Obama, and he'll end up with more delegates in TX than Hillary.

[DJ13]

4. Obama wins more delegates in Texas

DELEGATES

Hillary Clinton 51

Barack Obama 65

http://enr.sos.state.tx.us/enr/mar04_136_state.htm?x=21&y=0&id=220


And that doesnt include the caucus results.

[Kittycat]

5. How do you get that? None of the big cities have either reported or have solid numbers in.

I can see Ohio, but not TX - particularly with the early vote.

[itsrobert]

10. Man's intitution

okay?

[Kittycat]

23. Good Luck with that.

;)

Harris Early Voting still out
Major Cities still not fully reported
Caucus Results still waiting to be reported

[tekisui]

9. Wrong.

She may not even gain on the delegate count tonight. Obama has 50+ SuperD's ready in the wing. The Texas Caucus will go to Obama.

No convention fight. One vote to NOminee Obama.

[Danieljay]

12. Well, if she was to win the nomination, McCain will clean her clock and nothing changes..

then again, not much changes if she wins either.

[complain jane]

28. Not much changes no matter who wins. Hillary, Obama or McCain.

They're all politicians.

I have to say though, I think both Obama and Hillary have more balls than McCain, that's for sure.

[jgraz]

13. Oh yeah, the way she held off that 20 point collapse. Impressive.

:eyes:

[rodeodance]

86. the cure for SOUR GRAPES is lots of sunshine

[jgraz]

90. Can't have sour grapes if you're still winning

It's more like realizing the first fumigation didn't work. You know the termites will be gone eventually, you're just pissed that you have to spray all over again.

[DB1]

15. I am just wondering, going from 20% lead to marginal win?????

I try to remain objective, but come on folks. She needs to look in the mirror.

[Dinger]

16. Anybody Here A Delegate?

Just curious.:evilgrin:

[SammyWinstonJack]

18. High fucking five!

Works for me as an Edwards supporter! I voted for Hillary today in Texas because I will do anything to stop Obama the Liar!

[chascarrillo]

35. Congratufuckinglations. You've destroyed our chances in November.

You've shown that dirty politics win every time. Again, congratufuckinglations.

[xmas74]

84. The poster voted for the person they preferred

and you turn them into a villain.

Congratulations! People like you will guarantee that we will lose in November.

No one wants to work with people who constantly-well, I can't say it in a nice way. Let's just say this-the person you were chastising above probably won't want to volunteer for any campaign if s/he is exposed to supporters like yourself.

The old adage about catching more flies with honey does hold water.

[judaspriestess]

51. Woohoo Blue State Native

I'm damn proud of you and of course my SAN ANTONIO SPURS!!!!

[book_worm]

19. Don't see it. I think Obama wins Texas. Leads overall in delegates for night

and dem honchos start to whisper to her to get out of the race.

[kelligesq]

25. Questionable lead in caucus votes you mean - seems O's ppl

caught cheating - locking the doors against Hilary's caucus goers out in the hall. Wouldnt let them in.

tsk tsk

now back to Rezko and the wink wink on Nafta

[SammyWinstonJack]

37. .

:thumbsup: Go Hillary!

[think4yourself]

41. Please.

Rovian bullshit.

[anonymeme]

20. Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y!

Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y! Hillar-y!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

21. Yeah, she sure showed Obama tonight!

He's used to winning by 20-30%, and this time he only managed to go from 20% down to break even. What a win for Hillary!

[Unsane]

24. Convention fight = November loss

[berni_mccoy]

26. The Party Will tell that TRAITOR to stand down and look pretty.

[maddiejoan]

30. yes.

I'll give Obama that.

He is awfully pretty.

[berni_mccoy]

36. Twisting words better than Zellary tonight, eh?

[maddiejoan]

38. Please

you lost all your cred when you called Hillary a traitor.

[berni_mccoy]

44. She is. She would rather be McCain's V.P. than lose to Obama.

[maddiejoan]

46. You really need a hobby

you have become quite unhinged.

[berni_mccoy]

55. My hobby is exchanging quips with you. I just you would put some wit into it.

[maddiejoan]

57. heh

I'd suggest a lot more practice from you then.

You're not even in my league.

(and you know that)

;)

[berni_mccoy]

62. Well, that was a substandard response for you then.

AHM ON FIYA!!!!

hehe

[Jamastiene]

91. Not to mention the sexist jab in that statement above.

I caught that totally.

[avrdream]

54. He hardly EVER takes a bad picture, I give you that.

Our gal, Hillary, on the other hand, sure does have a lot of crappy ones out there. Strange that, because she seems to be a beautiful person.

[maddiejoan]

58. She's too busy workin' for us

instead of practicing in front of a mirror.

[itsrobert]

66. I don't see it

But I'm a man.

[Forkboy]

39. Yep, that's all women are good for....looking pretty.

:puke:

[HeraldSquare212]

27. Huckbaeeism at it's finest.

[lordsummerisle]

29. Yeah great, let's not only divide the party

let's shred it...

[RL3AO]

32. How Hillary avioded that 20 point collapse in 3 weeks was amazing.

[high density]

33. I hate to break it to ya

But the math that was valid this morning is still valid tonight.

[Yes We Did]

40. Hold your horses Clintonites and Clintonistas!

Most of the Obama counties haven't even been counted. That includes Cleveland, Cincinatti. Same in Texas. Harris county hasn't been counted along with others... The caucus' in Texas haven't ended yet. This isn't over by a long shot.

[blonndee]

42. ***YAY!!! LET'S DRIVE THE PARTY INTO THE DITCH AND GIVE MCCAIN THE GE! YAY!!!!

I can't believe anyone would be stupid enough to actually celebrate a "convention fight."

[itsrobert]

45. Over Dramatic?

?

[blonndee]

56. Yes, your OP was overdramatic, not to mention ignorant and shortsighted.

Thanks for asking.

[itsrobert]

59. Sorry for your loss.

I know you're frustrated. That's cool.

[blonndee]

64. Sorry for yours. Especially when the SDs and party leaders embarrass your girl.

[chitty]

47. I agree........

What the fuck is wrong here?

You(the OP) is relishing a convention fight?

And you wonder why we lose.

Jesus Christ.

[itsrobert]

49. Looks like you don't have much faith in our candidates.

I do. So have a Coke and a smile.

[beachmom]

43. Nope. Hillary won't be the nominee but she can kill Obama so that McCain wins.

The fact that Hillary supporters don't see what she is doing is incredible. She can't win unless the supers ignore the voters. They're not going to do that.

So, it will be Obama as the nominee after being attacked nonstop by the Republicans AND the Clinton machine.

The Clintons really don't care about anyone but themselves.

[pjazz19]

48. Hillary is the WORST candidate we've ever had

I'm voting Nader if she wins! GO OBAMA!!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

50. .

:boring:

[Voltaire99]

75. True. The Clintons wouldn't mind McCain over Obama.

In their moribund boomer sellout politics, McCain is family. They're perfectly fine with his Bush-lite agenda having practiced it themselves for years.

An Obama victory, by contrast, would be disaster. It would almost surely permanently close down Hillary's hopes of wearing the crown.

So look for the scorched earth policy. If they can't destroy Obama before he gets the nod, they'll help elect McCain. A large number of their sad boomer fans will defect, too.

[Roxy66]

52. That was a great book...I read it many years ago.

[LadyVT]

60. CONGRATS HILLARY! THEY'VE CALLED OHIO FOR YOU!!!!!

[CampDem]

61. Yipppeee!!!!!

:kick: :headbang:

[Drifter]

63. Sorry to dissappoint ...

the only thing she has managed to do is not fall farther behind. She needs big wins pretty much everywhere, and that has not happened.
Remember, it is the delegate count that matters.

The sooner she gets out, the sooner we can start running for President, instead of destroying the party.

Cheers
Drifter

[Avalux]

65. Comeback? She was expected to win Ohio by 20 points 2 weeks ago.

That's hardly a comeback.

[Yes We Did]

67. Everyone slow down a bit... the largest Obama county in Ohio hasn't been counted.

Everyone called it for Hillary but Obama is still up in the delegate count.

[berni_mccoy]

68. Sizeable Lead = 0.8% with < 30% reporting?!?! Man, you guys need to get a grip.

[RememberWellstone]

69. In it, to win it!!!

Woo Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

[swamppundit]

71. I'm Counting on Hillary to get me a Job

I think most people voting for Hillary expect she will get them a new job.

Talk about pie in the sky dreaming, this has to take the cake.

Just how does Hillary expect to change the global economy? By placing barriers on free trade? Brilliant move Hill.

Why should I be surprised....If this country can elect George Bush for 2 terms Hillary can easily take this nomination.

[Marie26]

72. Woooo-hooo!

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

73. Sizeable lead?

Enjoy your 1% lead while you can spin it. It will turn into an Obama lead by next morning. Dallas and Houston still have to speak.

[itsrobert]

77. Seems like the Obama supporters have Hope!

Hope doesn't pay the rent or vote.

[CyberPieHole]

74. Kick and rec for Hillary Clinton 44th President of the United States...

I hope she wins Texas. Obama should drop out for the good of the party.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

76. GO MAMA!!!!!!!!!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

88. Is this a GREAT NIGHT or what?

:woohoo::woohoo::bounce::bounce: Hillary kicked his ASS in Ohio! I hope she does the same in Texas!:woohoo:

[truebrit71]

79. How do you comeback if you had the lead? Spin much?

:puke:

[boston bean]

80. I am so proud of her. Go Hillary! Yes she will!

[Seabiscuit]

81. I have to give it up for Hillary, she is a fighter. We have a lot of wrongs to right after Bush and

you know that fight isn't going to be easy. As a person you have to admire Hillary's will and perserverance. You go Hillary!

[sueragingroz]

82. it's gonna be a knife fight!

Gotta love CNN..

[Manifestor_of_Light]

85. They should bring back duels with swords.

Or use the Aaron Burr method for settling disputes, to create excitement.

[Baclava]

95. Blood, blood! ...we need more blood to sell papers!

[LadyVT]

87. I believe scandal will arise, the superdelegates will flee him, and she will win

[cascadiance]

94. So is that what they are doing? A "Find a Scandal" contest for Hillary supporters?...

Sheesh! I guess they learned from those going after Bill during the impeachment years well! :(

[Tresalisa]

89. Wow, just...

WOW! What an exciting night! :wow:

[cascadiance]

93. It's like cheering at a basketball game when one is 20 points down with 2 minutes left...

... in the game, saying they won because they came back from a 30 point deficit they had 10 minutes earlier when they still had a chance to make a comeback...

Of course perhaps they'll get the powers that be to still "fix" the results for them (kind of like the Olympic officials did with the American basketball team many years back), so they'll feel justified in their cheering now.
