Caucuses and Fund-raising prove Hillary has "SOFT" support
They don't want to send her their money.

They don't want to take a couple of hours to caucus for her.

The super delegates know what that means!

SOFT SUPPORT!

1. Yep. Which is why California is no longer Hillary Country....
and neither is New Jersey.

That's what happened when you are winning on name recognition and barely show up and rely on you last name to get ahead.

5. Yep....

And here was the real shocker: In a state where Clinton, senator from neighboring New York, won the Feb. 5 primary by 10 points, 45% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents now said they wanted to see Obama as the party's nominee, compared with 38% who picked Clinton.

Less than three months after Clinton's primary win, "some New Jersey voters feel buyer’s remorse,” said poll director Patrick Murray.

3. Let's be blunt. Her voters can't miss Lawrence Welk to go to a caucus.

4. Soft support and if we're talking about a Clinton here
a little "soft" money as well, probably...

7. That's the only way Obama can win. If votes in the GE are weighted by enthusiasm.
But OOPS! They aren't!

8. Folks will be paying attention. They will not be low information
voters by the time this election is said and done.

Remember what I said.

Obama is in a perfect storm of time, and only until one sees the character behind the melanin, do they start to understand exactly what I am talking about.

It will be done.
