re: Troll 45

I tend to agree with the logic that says Obama is the better candidate because he is doing better in the states that typically vote Republican.

The Democrats in the "democratic" states (e.g., CA, NY), likely would vote for Obama if he has the nomination, but neither the Democrats nor the Republicans in the non-democrat states would vote for Hillary.

I could see a lot of people that like Obama and dislike both Clinton and McCain just not voting or voting for a 3rd party candidate - which would give McCain a victory.

Therefore, Obama is the better choice.

And I hope he doesn't pick Hilary as his VP. She was obnoxious as first lady when she tried to ram her healthcare plans down our throats. Just imagine if she were VP.

Here is my prediction...Obama and Hillary are going to split victories all the way to the convention, where Obama will lead Hillary still in the popular vote, states won and delegates earned. However, the Democratic establishment will be so scared of McCain by then, since he has been running his national campaign with no opposition for months, that they will overturn the popular vote with their Super Delegates, and Clinton will win the nomination. Because of this, half of the Democratic party (including the future of the party, since 70% of Dems. under 30 are going for Obama) will revolt and not vote. McCain will trounce Hillary in the general election and Republicans will regain power in Congress by a wide majority. Meanwhile, the leaders of the Democratic Party will be voted out, one idiot at a time. The Republicans will control the government for the next 8 years, as the Democrats try to rebuild what they lost. The Dems. will regain power in 8 years after McCain calls for a draft, enters Iran (similar to Iraq), and the economy continues to fall, fall, fall. The end.

wow. You know the future. Really, this is the future we all share. How else can we tell them? This is the only way predictor man, lets hope they take us seriously.

re: Industrial-sized Chick Peas

The Superdelegate count currently is ~230:200 for Clinton and even many of her SDs are not gonna override the pledged delegate count/popular vote.

So let's say she has 200 Superdelegates who would do that, she will need a good share of the remaining ones to win.

Now think about this, these remaining Superdelegates have not endorsed her yet, so they are a)not very enthusiastic supporters of her or b)stay silent because they don't think that the Superdelegates should decide the process.

Just look at some of the names who haven't endorsed yet, do you think Dennis Kucinich, John Edwards or Al Gore would override the pledged delegate count, i don't think so.

re: vccvc

After Hillary wins Pennslyvania, Barack should come out and say...good job, now on to the next state that really matters. If a democrat can't win in the banking rich state of North Carolina they won't be able to win in a general election. He should really hype up that state as she does with pennslyvania to prove the point that she's just focusing on states that she has supporters in.

I posted it before several times:No way that the Superdelegates hand the nomination to Clinton when Obama is leading in pledged delegates and the popular vote.

This might be true if politicians were not, well, politicians. It's not about what's best for the country, it's what's best for me, the politician. If the battle gets to the convention, no matter who eventually wins the nomination, every political appointment will be promised by the time the convention ends. The hardest part for the nominee will be to figure out how to nominate three Secretaries of State.

re: Souper Tuesday

The party that preaches unity, inclusiveness and bringing the world together can't even resolve it's own internal conflicts.

Oh, the irony.
