Hillary is going to win the nomination.
Absolutely unreal. I can't believe this.

The Clinton family cannot lose. They win at all costs.

This is as disappointed as I have ever been in my life.

7. Not quite. Harris County, TX has not yet fully reported. Neither has Cuyahoga
County in Ohio. Both are major metropolitan areas of Houston and Cleveland.

She would have to steal the nomination at this point.

32. voting irregularities?
when have the clintons been involved in that? what's the precedent?

now, the repubs....that's a different story. they have the media, the big corps and the machinery behind them. whichever repuke is running will automatically benefit from that.

remember 2000? al gore, clinton's vp, won the election but somehow the supreme court selected the other guy. if clinton had any pull don't you think his guy (who actually got more votes and won florida to boot) would be in the white house now?

31 posts and already talking crazy shit.

13. What?
They're going to split the four primaries tonight. Obama will win a few more delegates than Hillary. And this means he's doomed?

33. Yea right
She gets outspent 4-1 and still wins Ohio by a good margin, has won just about every blue state and has won all the big states. Obviously the voters have spoken.

21. She's got a shot at the nom, certainly. But it's not as good an angle
Edited on Tue Mar-04-08 10:56 PM by Old Crusoe
as it had been, and there are fewer of her people under the basket these days.

She's popular. She's historic. But there's been a delegate bleed. I'm not sure she can reverse it.

Maybe.

to continue his freshman role. Some things were meant to be.

23. Then she will lose the general because the Democrats will lose the election if
the superdelegates overturn the pledged delegates which they would have to for Clinton to win the nomination.

24. What happened to make you think that?
Two wins in 14 doesn't do it.

Money, Delegates, States, popular vote, soon to be superd's: Obama leads.

25. She wont make up hardly any delegates on Obama today
It will be nearly the same delegate gap as yesterday, but now its WORSE for Hillary as she has 4 LESS states to make up ground with.

She really has little chance left, she needed a 30% margin in BOTH Ohio and Texas to have any chance.

Until someone making this claim is able to do that they will not get a passing grade from me.

29. Perhaps - but she will Not win the GE
So sad.

Of course, Obama could lose the GE as well -- BUT IMO he has a hair better chance come November.

Clinton is "polarizing" due to successful Wingnut campaigns -- and a bit due to her machinations in the past.

Whether this is "fair" or not is not the question -- it is a fact which will energize the GOP and lure so called Independents to McCain, who will camouflage his craziness and pandering to the Winger Base -- until he can appoint some Supremes.

will lose after the second quarter, even though they're up 17-14?

34. No she won't. The numbers aren't there for her. What she can do is destroy Obama,
so that she can run in '12.

Anyone foolish enough on this board who thought the Clintons gave a damn about the Democratic Party will eventually have to face this truth.
