Clinton creaming Obama in Ky
uuh huhuhuu huhuhu



U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton enters the final week before Kentucky’s May 20 Democratic presidential primary with a commanding 27 percentage point lead over U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, a new poll shows.

She leads the Illinois senator 58 percent to 31 percent, with 11 percent uncommitted, according to a Herald-Leader/WKYT Kentucky Poll of 500 probable Democratic voters.

But either Democratic candidate would trail the expected Republican nominee, John McCain, in the state by double digits if the November general election were held today, reveals a companion survey of 600 likely voters from all parties.

Nice header. Not really the visual most people would want, though.

4. She's been a lock in WVA and KY for months
Of the final primaries Obama takes NC, OR, SD and MT. Hill takes WVA, KY and they tied (virtually) in Indiana. Puerto Rico will also probably be a Hillary win.

5. KY is just like WV in that they went red in 2004 and thus DOES NOT COUNT
KY in 2004 60% bush- 40% Kerry
WV in 2004 56% bush- 43% Kerry

57. Good Point.
This red state, blue state crap has to stop. This was a media invention and they're still influencing our thoughts with this. ALL states are in play for this election.

Good post, bamalib

6. People, it doesn't matter. Let it go.
My mother asked me a long time ago, "Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?"


We've won. Clinton is no longer an issue.

It's time to stop responding to these posts and concentrate on McCain.

23. Yes and McCain is creaming both of them there.
Kentucky wasn't going "D" this year no matter what. Maybe for Edwards it would have been closer.

24. Kentucky almost certain to go with McCain in November
is another way to summarize one of the main points of that article.

One of Hillary's strengths (according to Terry McAuliffe and the rest of the Clinton campaign) is that she can win in many of the large battleground states that Democrats need to win in the fall. Kentucky is not one of them.

25. It will be interesting to see how much press KY gets vs. OR next Tuesday
Somehow Oregon is seen as significant while KY isn't. I guess maybe OR is more of a battleground, but it's been called for Obama consistently.

Anyway, it'll be a fun day of exciting, if less than relevant, races.

44. I'm very excited to be doing it
This is the 1st time I've ever really gone out on the front lines - so I'm quite excited to do it. the part of Kentucky I'm in is very close to Cincinnati, Ohio - so we're the big city for sure - but there is still quite a bit of racism to conquer here.

My new life is putting my money and actions where my mouth is - everyday do something, anything, to make this world a better place. And by giving so much - I have never been happier!
