One of the most inane remarks I heard tonight.... |
|
Well it Obama wins the Alaska primary, that means he can do well in a red state...
No, Nora, it means that Obama appealed better to the Democrats who are voting in the primary...
It has nothing to do with the general election...
When I ran for state senate, I won big in every city within the boundaries of the district and yet, I lost the general...
Winning a primary in one state is a very weak indicator as to how the general will turn in that same state...
