CNN: Clinton no win, but maybe yes if, but no so why try?
Wow, what a report. She should fold it in with only 47% to his 49%? Series? CNN?

Series? She needs a little more than 50%, but can't win so should pack it in?

Series?

Ugh, why don't they just leave our Dem runners alone? Both will beat the pants off of any Repuke.

Oh yeah...paymasters, PNAC, Repukes, M$M.

Nasty words, nasty media whores.

1. A little more than 50%?

She needs a lot more than 50% to win.

And you are right, it would have been no problem for Obama or Hillary to win against the GOP. But since Hillary now seems to be campaigning for McCain knowing she has lost this primary our victory doesn't seem to be as clear as it used to be. And with 37% of HRC supporters saying they will support McCain over Obama I personally smell a rat, the same smell Joe Lieberman gave off.

2. 56% of all the rest of the states.
She is 2% below Obama in popular vote and the M$M tells her to pack it in. Silliness, like her supporting McCain. We will see her fold behind Obama, anyone who believes otherwise is being silly.

We've all seen the picture of Bill and Poppy, so what they were both POTUS of the US. Stop being surprised. The real details fall into what Hillary will do differently as POTUS then what Obama will do in terms of the BFEE. That is where the real rat is, I won't compare Clinton to Joe quite yet.

5. 56% is a lot more than 50%. But I'm curious where you are getting 56% from
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 04:20 PM by Pawel K
that number is more in the 60% range.

The real question is what Clinton will do about BFEE? Shit, she supported most of his positions until they became unpopular. In fact she still hasn't admitted voting for the Iraq war was a mistake. So I really don't understand why you think she will do more than Obama. My point is there is a lot of legitimate reasons that she needs to drop out, it has nothing to do with media conspiracies.

7. CNN
I, unfortunately, turned it on. That is what they said. 56% is not a lot more when you take a error of 3 percent in reporting. Just kinda made me laugh at CNN. I think she will do less than Obama, my post was about her packing it in while it is still close.

That is all.

6. Clearly, scientific polls are bullshit when they don't happen to fit your agenda?
Science is science. And currently it is telling us that 37% of Clinton supporters would rather have McCain than Obama. You figure that one out, I already know what it means.

4. She needs a lot more than 50% to win
she needs to win EVERY.....SINGLE.......STATE.....by MORE.....THAN.......66% to hope to catch Obama in pledged delegates.

Hillary should be shown the door by the party super delegates before Pennsylvania even votes so we can begin the GE campaign.

I recognize all the words you just used, but order sense not make.
