hillary wont get it. its over and it has been for quite a while. she's just stubborn. there is no way she gets more elected delegates. no way the DNC counts MI and FL for her. no way the superdelegates make the call against the elected delegates. its over----barring some major skeleton coming out of obama's closet.
Wishful thinking. This thing could go down to the convention and internal party compromises will have to be made. Hillary could win that war. Do the oither two negative campaigns not bother you? You should have done that already.
you may be right about. My wife is registered as an independent i dont know why, but she is a democrat. my bad Red, didnt mean to make it look like you posted all of that.
Nobody drops out of a race this close. Nobody. She could take Pennsylvania in April with 6 weeks to get ready. Obama may have peaked too soon. Well, she won three of four states last night. The superdelegates were created specifically to buck the trends. It's hard to say what they will do if it comes down to a convention battle.
except for some unprecedented collapse, like obama is a member of al queda, obama will go to the convention with a significant delegate lead. she won two of the biggest states and will only net 10-20 delegates. he will likely get those back before Pa. no way the superdelegates will decide the nominee for fear of alienating the obamaites and/or fracturing the party. i will say though that Hill's hints today about joint ticket are a smart move
Honestly, I was completely shocked that Hillary won Texas. I guess that many of the Republicans that were voting in the Democratic primary were NOT voting for Obama, as I thought they might be--and were, instead, voting for Hillary, probably because McCain has a VERY good shot at beating Clinton (but not so much against Obama, IMO.) However, and I haven't seen the final numbers, the vote in Collin County, where I live, heavily favored Obama (it's a HEAVILY Republican county.) I just can't figure it out. I thought the negative campaigning (3 a.m., etc.) was really going to turn off voters, but again, I was wrong. Also, what does it say about relations between blacks and Hispanics that the Hispanic vote went so lopsided in favor of Clinton in Texas?

She will push for reseating Florida and Michigan. There is rumbling that Florida's Governor Crist may call for another primary election for the state and that Michigan would follow suit if that happens.....allegedly. If she pulls that off, then the 100+ delegate count margin is down to about 50 or so, and then we have us a race to the very end without knowing who will win until the convention. The Democratic Party cannot win in November if this does indeed unfold.
scroll to the bottom. there are maps of TX for each of GOP and Dem and primary and caucus results. mouse over county to get #s.
