Official IN/NC prediction thread: Post your OFFICIAL prediction here.
I'll do my best to keep this thread up so that we can see who nailed it and who didn't. Let me start:

Indiana: Clinton 54%, Obama 46%
North Carolina: Obama 56%, Clinton 44%

What do you think?

in that case, Hillary takes both.

13. You're going to keep hoping against hope, aren't ya?

How pathetic is that?

You don't think your candidate can win on her own merits... you're hoping for the other team to fumble.



You need to have a long talk with your psychiatrist.

18. No, she's campaigning quite well. But, "look" -- Obamatronic "math" doesn't mean that it's over yet
but it DOES mean Hillary needs to catch some breaks to pull off the nomination. Wright hitting back at Barack before Tuesday? Quite possible. (Allegedly, he has an appearance or two scheduled for this weekend in Pittsburgh.)

If not though, Tuesday's a split decision, so on to Kentucky, on to West Virginia, on to Puerto Rico!

Edited on Fri May-02-08 11:22 PM by rocknation
He accomplished his mission--taking himself out of the mix without alienating the AA/clergy voters. Anyone who tries to use him as a weapon against Obama now is beating a dead horse.

Although I don't give Obama, whom I love, quite the takeover of Guam that is suggested. I think it'll be more even.

24. Watch for an Obama surge this week-end
especially in Indiana. Obama by 12 in N.C. and by 3 in Indiana. Indiana will rewards its neighbor's favorite son. It happened in Missouri, Iowa and Wisconsin and it will happen again in Indiana. Hillary will throw in the towel on Wednesday or Thursday. Obama will defeat McCain 53% to 46% in November. Was this more than you wanted?

44. I'm pessimistic...
Indiana Clinton 56% Obama 44%
North Carolina Obama 52.5 Clinton 47.5


It is going to be ugly for the rest of the primary.... but Obama will still be the nominee... because she can't catch up. She is just trying to sink him as part of her 2012 primary strategy.

46. I can't make a real prediction until I know what percentage of voting machines are diebold

that don't have a paper trail.


Hillary does 3-5% better than the exit polls in districts with electronic black-box voting.


This is not something Hillary is doing... however, the Republican-leaning Diebold corporation is doing the GOP's bidding - which is to prolong things by keeping Hillary's candidacy alive.


If there were paper-only ballots in both states:

Indiana: Obama 52, Clinton 48
NC: Obama 61, Clinton 39

If Diebold:

Indiana: Clinton 51, Obama 48
NC: Obama 55, Clinton 45

47. My Prediciton
Remember I always maintained Hillary would win PA.

Obama wins NC by at least 10 points.It could be higher.

Obama wins Guam

Indiana Is going to be close.Whoever wins It will be by a 4,or 5 point margain.Hillary may very will win.However Obama could win.I am not willing to call this.

Yep. I think IN will be within a 1 pt. difference... perhaps a slight lead for Clinton, but not enough to call it a win.

The Indiana guess is based on the fact that a good portion of the state is simply an extension of rural Ohio.

75. It's become too skewed ...
But I think Clinton will somehow win both.

Then she'll go nuclear.

I'm sick.

Before the end of the week Obama will be asked to step down.

He will not be asked to run w/ Clinton or he will turn her down.

Look for a Clinton/Clark ticket.

I will be voting for McKinney.

Otherwise I'll be voting a straight Democratic ticket in November.
