I wish Obama would hunker down in Oregon this week
I know he's going to MI and other states, too, but I think he really needs a big convincing win in Oregon. He's leading in the polls, but I really want him to win as big a margin as possible. KY is in the bag for Hill, so she is going to spend most of her time in OR trying to get an upset or closer than expected. Obama needs to make sure he gets a NC style win or better out of Oregon.

1. We just need to get the ballots in
15% had been returned by some reports yesterday. Spending time getting ballots in is probably more worthwhile than trying to convince voters at this point in time. I think we'll do a little better than 56-42, but I think the NC numbers are certainly doable.

2. Actually
I think he should spend some more time in Kentucky. Losing is OK, but it better not be like last night. He will be fine in Oregon, I am sure.

3. As was noted on dkos yesterday,
He's had margins as big or bigger in nine other states. A good thing to mention when someone talks about this win for HRC. They are Idaho 79, Hawaii 76, Alaska 75, Kansas 74, Nebraska 68, Washington 68, Georgia 67, Colorado 67, Minnesota 66.

5. Its too late to have an impact on Oregon it already has voted
They vote by mail so atleast half of the ballots or more have already been mailed

6. This is his third time here in Oregon and actually because
this is such an unusual race there are still a lot of undecided people. We can always encourage the other half to vote!

7. I think day after Hillary wins big in KY Obama will put the final nail in the coffin of Hillary's...
Campaign by having Al Gore come out and endorse him. In the same way John edwards did
