No presidential candidate would rather have Obama's "states" over Clinton's in a race that's coming down to Superdels.

Relax it's going to be a bumpy ride.

2. If she flunks in TX and OH you will have to admit she's done, right?

11. So even if he wins TX and OH with more than 40% (essentially a tie), you'll say she's still in it?
I can show you the math proving that impossible.

22. This poster does not belong on our board.
I doubt they really support Hillary to begin with. Has done nothing but hurt her cause.

3. We already know Obama is going to win those states so I would rather he be competitive in
Red states and swing states which it looks like he will be. I think your argument backfires.

26. You think Obama is going to lose California and Massachusetts to Republicans?
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 11:25 PM by Quixote1818
I have to admit, I have been on DU for several years now and your post takes the cake for the most absurd I have seen. And the fact that you are gloating about it as though you think you are brilliant or something? :wow: :spray: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

If you were referring to Florida and Ohio, no one competed in Florida and Obama still could win Ohio and very possibly will.

4. you're actually posting that she's won states that she has NOT won
yet. Mega pathetic, murkymuck. And FL? how sleazy can you get?

And you forgot CT, MS, WA for Obama. As usual you're totally dishonest.

6. I think you meant MO an Missouri is the best indicator of how well a candidate
will do nationally.

25. Then why not start a thread saying that
Edited on Sun Feb-10-08 10:01 PM by tammywammy
Instead of something concluding she won states that haven't even held their primaries yet. :shrug:

Plus, Obama's got momentum on his side right now, coming out of this weekend. BTW, how's it going you keep posting that he's "done" and obviously he isn't.

14. You're right
Even though Obama carried San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento, Santa Cruz, and Santa Barbara, he didn't get San Jose, Fresno, LA, or San Diego.

He's never going to carry California in the General Election. :(

15. It's still democrats voting in those red states and a lot of them post on DU
They might have even lived in CA or MA at one time or another. I don't get your point. A democrat is a democrat.

16. What elitist cocktail party gibberish
Are you calling Georgia a small state? How about Virginia, where Obama is likely to win Tuesday?

And for your information, your candidate's husband won three of those states that you are deriding.

21. but I thought we were supposed to win over the heartland
We only care about the west and east coasts?

Didn't that attitude lose us a long string of elections?

27. Note how the poster picks out Obama's less likely states, & then adds states HRC has yet to win ...
Furthermore, one reason Obama keeps winning Democrats in the red states is that they know what POISON Hillary Clinton will be downticket to other Democratic pols. Note that Obama v Hillary at the top of the ticket WILL INDEED have a HUGE impact on Democrats in the deep South, and places like NE, KS, UT, ID, Alaska, and MO.

Note that Obama has won in: WA,CT, DE, MO, CO, and of course, Ill, and is likely to win not only VA but MD this coming Tues as well, according to the polls (which polls showing him winning have been right most of the time, when IN SYNCH and not just outliers.)
