2. Doubtful.
I think you will have a lot to celebrate tomorrow if you support Hillary.

14. Here is the actual math for the off-site caucus voters

I think the "5 times more" claim is drastically exaggerated.

3. Hillary has always been the favorite in NV.
Obama's been doing better but it will be tough to overcome the HillaryInc Machine. I, too, hope he can make it close.

5. Yes, he's done incredibly well.
If only we had just a little more time there....

Well, we still have SC.

16. He's closing that gap!
And I think that the Culinary Workers and Indenpendent Democrats are going to do it for him.

Gobama!

4. To me, if Obama can finish within 3 pts of Hillary he earns a moral victory.
She's been ahead there for months.

8. Agreed.
Unfortunately, the damn media won't mention the incredible rise he's had, they will just focus on who wins NV by a few votes.

If Obama had one more week in NV, I'm certain he'd win.

10. Is the compressed Primary schedule.
If he had as much time in NV as he had in Iowa, he'd win.
