If these contests were winner take all......

[gsaguyCLW54]

...Obama would be on his way out tongiht. Think about it.

[Seen the light]

1. Good thing that, while our system is bullshit, it's not THAT bullshit n/t

[MercutioATC]

2. If these contests were winner take all....

...we'd be Republicans. Think about it.

[walldude]

3. LOL.. if these contests were winner take all

Hillary would have been out long ago.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

4. If my dog hadn't stopped to take a shit, she'd have caught the rabbit. nt

[scheming daemons]

No... because both would have approached them differently all along....

[NewHampshireDem]

5. And if your grandmother had balls

She'd be your grandfather. Think about it.

[mrgorth]

6. You're a

moron.

[otohara]

7. And If He Were White

she'd be on her way out.

[TTUBatfan2008]

18. Exactly what I have been thinking...

Getting 90+% of the black vote doesn't mean jack shit when 85+% of the electorate is white in some of these "big states." Lose 70-30 among whites and get 95% of the black vote and you have a total of 40% of the vote. He's not losing 70-30 among whites, but it's a pretty substantial margin nonetheless.

[LisaL]

21. Actually, he'd be one of many junior senators. His words, not mine.

[virtualobserver]

8. and if hillary needed money to run a campaign, then she would soon be out

and actually, she does. Luckily, her vendors don't need to be paid.

[SoCalDem]

9. She would be a republican and we would not have to put up with her shit

:)

[Cant trust em]

10. but it's not winner take all. NT

[Middle finga]

11. IF I had a million dollars I wouldn't have to get up and go to work

tomorrow but I don't.

[gsaguyCLW54]

14. Im just suggesting that maybe Hillary isnt so far off base as most Obama supporters seem to believe

[gsaguyCLW54]

12. go and do the math....Im not the idiot.

[slick8790]

13. I disagree. n/t

[gsaguyCLW54]

15. with math? you dont think 1+1=2?

[slick8790]

17. No, I disagree that you're not the idiot.

If we gave Utah 50 billion delegates, then Obama would win.

See that?

It's just as ludicrous as any other "if" scenario.

[gsaguyCLW54]

23. no its not.

[TahitiNut]

26. Did you just step out of an Argument Clinic rerun??

:eyes: :eyes: You'll have to work on your comedy act.

[gsaguyCLW54]

20. evidence

Hillary Clinton would have 1746 delegates to Barack Obama's 1569. The reason the Democrats don't have a winner-take-all rule is because they are Democrats. They don't consider it fair that the birthday boy or girl gets to eat the whole cake. You have to share it with your friends. Republicans have a different world model. You either win or you lose. If you win you get to take all the marbles home. If you lose, you get no marbles

and this doesnt count PA,

[TahitiNut]

22. All evidence to the contrary.

:shrug:

[Tribetime]

16. If the alcs was best of 5 the Indians would have been in Series

those were the rules before.

[LisaL]

19. Yep.

[Condem]

24. Yup, I'm thinking about it

How does it feel, oh chosen one, to have it all pre-ordained. And, it just didn't work out the way you thought it would?

[bobbert]

25. If they were winner take all

She would have been so far behind Feb. 5 that it would have been nearly impossible for her to come back and she would have had to give in because of the delegate discrepancy.

Also, does you winner take all give Texas to Clinton or Obama, because Obama won Texas.

[gsaguyCLW54]

28. just read this....

[wileedog]

27. And if we didn't have Superdelagates this would have been over a month ago

Think about it

[gsaguyCLW54]

29. just look....

[gsaguyCLW54]

31. my point is that Hillary believing she is part of this...

...and should be, is not some delusion unsupported by reason.

[Gore1FL]

30. And if Cows could fly

I'd always wear a raincoat.

[gsaguyCLW54]

32. but instead or reading somethign and discussing it, you make an asshole comment like this

[Swamp Rat]

34. "you make an asshole comment like this"

This is not 'dialog' either.

[newmajority]

36. I thought you were leaving, Mr. Freeper?

:dunce:

[Gore1FL]

37. What is there to discuss?

The whole premise is idiotic.

[newmajority]

33. Sure cows can fly

But Obama will still be President.

[TexasObserver]

35. If these contests were winner take all, they'd be Republican instead of Democratic.

Think about that.
