1. Splitting SD's is good for Obama.
Hillary needs to pick up 3 for every 2 that he gets. Unfortunately for her it's been the other way around.

4. Exactly. 50:50 ain't gonna cut it for her.
Her path to the nomination is disappearing with every endorsement, at this rate.

22. Who were members of the Pennsylvania AFL CIO, you Hillary people really have this parsing thing down
No context to everything, that way nothing means what it does, unless you paint a context on it.

23. How do you even know they were members? Your statement was duplicitous.
You have no proof they were members. MSM are the ones that said there were a scant few, but really loud.

14. Very good endorsement.
Edited on Wed Apr-30-08 09:48 AM by NJSecularist
After blowouts in Kentucky and West Virginia, I predict a bunch of superdelegates will start gravitating towards Hillary.

:woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

25. For the month of April
Clinton gained 17 supers and PLEO add-ons

Obama gained 29 supers and PLEO add-ons

That's a net gain of twelve for Obama, and that's not figuring in the three Hillary delegates who withdrew their support.
