I'm calling this for Hillary
The Obama supporters can be optimistic, you are entitled to your opinion, but Hillary took the early lead and has yet to relinquish it. In fact, she's built on it. She have the overwhelming women vote, she has the support of several large cities. Obama will likely get closer, there are still 50% of the precincts likely to be reported, but these trends over the first half of the precincts tell me that Hillary will win this.

Just one man's honest opinion. Obama may get the college vote, but I don't think that will be enough. It's pretty clear to me that McCain really hurt Obama's chances among independents.

1. so TFW? You can call yourself Napoleon too
it wouldn't make it so and it would make you just as crazy. can't you even just sit still long enough to let the votes come in? You Hillary supporters are a real piece of work.

5. Perhaps they could
But I wouldn't bet on it. 3000+ votes is a lot to make up at this point. It's unlikely one group/county will vote overwhelming for one candidate over the other.

3. Less like an opinion, more like a completely uninformed statement.

9. Hillary does not attract independent voters at all.
It will be a real problem if she wins the nomination.

7. Well in the end either Obama will get Edward votes or Edward will get Obama votes
and Hillary loses, and deservedly so

After 8 years of bush, she had the gall to vote for the Kiel/Lieberman amendment which calls for a permanent presence of U.S. troops in Iraq as long as Iran is perceived a threat

It doesn't matter whether it is binding or not, if you voted for something then you must believe in what it says

10. For once I have to disagree with DU supporters and agree with Wolfie (YUK)
Let all the votes be counted.

16. Dude, chill
It's just my opinion. I have a right to it just like you have a right to yours. I'm not the only one to declare a victory for Hillary.

15. Huh? It is again a 2% difference - way to early to call anything with almost half the precincts
still out.
