1. In other news, Hillary has no possibility of catching up in pledged delegates.

14. In more recent news,
if Clinton gets the nomination she will have no AA support, which makes her unelectable.

15. In More Recent News It Is Mathematically Imposssible
In more recent news it is mathematically impossible for Barack Obama to win a two person race for the presidency with 36% of the non African American vote:

Obama, on the other hand, earns solid support from African-American voters but attracts only 36% of white voters in a match-up with McCain.

Do the math... Obama would end up with 42% - 44% of the pop vote... That's George McGovern and Walter Mondale territory...


The Democratic party has screwed the pooch...

16. What a low shot! Progressive & Obama stronghold like DailyKos are ? feeding FUD to the obama maniacs
...if its good news, that is praising your saviour Obama or bashing the hell out of HRC, everything goes...
But when its news that is negative for your "man", its automatically

HEY YOU..THAT IS OFF LIMITS...THEY HAVE NO PLACE HERE

7. Gee, I wonder why the OP got tombstoned.
It couldn't be because of the OP's links to right-wing bullshit, could it?

Naw, couldn't be. :eyes:

9. I would imagine the truth is probably much the reverse . . ..
Probably Obama 56% . . . Clinton 44%
and McCain 34%

The elections have been stolen since the computers began to come in during the 1960's . . . !!!!

See: http://www.constitution.org/vote/votescam__.htm
NOTE: You can read the book or scan it FREE at the website kept by the family

So they've been stealing elections but they don't bother trying to damage primaries or
interfere with polls?

10. This is actually an interesting poll
It is, however, worth noting that the margin of error + "others/don't know" is 17% - 19% http://www.foxnews.com/projects/pdf/032008_release_web.pdf

Here are some items from that poll that I found interesting. Take note of the Independents:
