Obama wins!

[Teaser]

1. well...

it's pretty much a tie. And I say this as an Obama fan.

However, I expected O to get smoked, so I'm happy.

2. :)

3. How do you know Hillary has NM? nt

[ProSense]

6. She's leading, not a done deal. If Obama wins, then it moves to his row.

[ProudToBeLiberal]

4. You Forgot American Samoa

2 delegates for clinton 1 for obama

[CreekDog]

5. Yeah, but, jeez, cmon.

I mean come on (and understand I'm a supporter).

This is a tie, though he has caught up. If he keeps moving, he wins, but not yet.

[ProSense]

8. For Super Tuesday, this is a big day for Obama. n/t

[CreekDog]

9. Yes, it's a very big day, he did very well

Absolutely. But it's not decisive --yet. Let's see where the next chapter takes us.

:hi:

7. I Feel Much More Confident Than I Did A Few Weeks Ago

I'm going to do everything I can to help here in Pennsylvania between now & our primary.

[Democrafty]

10. Me too.

PA is my home state. I live in CA now, but I'll go home for a bit if need be!

[meow mix]

15. very happy with these results

catn wait to see whats next

[krkaufman]

11. Just to be clear. They better not try to use FL & MI to make up any deficit.

The s will hit the fan.

[frankenforpres]

14. do you not know the clintons?

im supporting Hillary, mainly because she is a fighter (think someone needs to not be afraid of those assholes). i fully expect them to do whatever it takes

[krkaufman]

17. Re: "do you not know the clintons?" --- Yes. At least sufficiently.

Call for seating of Florida delegates not altogether altruistic

I'm not supporting her (after supporting Edwards) because of tactics like the above, along with other observed campaign behavior, since the bubble burst in Iowa. I'm OK with sharpening your skills during the primary season, but less so with sharpening the knives on fellow Democrats; and I have a hard time supporting someone unable to stick to a simple pledge (as above).

And I'm supporting Obama because we *do* need to change the political dynamic in this country, and I'm willing to take the first step towards reconciliation -- noting that reconciliation does not mean reconciliation with the 25%ers, nor does it mean capitulation. We need to create a new working majority that allows us to marginalize the 25%ers, and -- in my opinion -- Hillary stands little to no chance of doing that due to her unfortunate, high disapproval ratings.

12. obama wins

sorry clintons

[Renew Deal]

13. We should wait and see

We'll get the count soon enough.

[Raine]

16. Obama wins ... Yipppeee

I hope it holds! :-)

[Mistwell]

18. You don't count delegates that way

Uh, that is not how delegates are counted. These are not winner take all states. Also, you're not accounting for Super Delegates.

Odds are right now that Clinton will come out with a bit more delegates by the end of the count, the way California is looking right now on a district by district and county by county level.

[Maddy McCall]

19. They're banking on what one MSNBC analyst guestimated.

I wouldn't bet the bank on that, though.

[Drunken Irishman]

20. Uh, the poster didn't use winner takes all.

[Mistwell]

21. Sure they did

Why else list a candidate name and a state they won?

[Mistwell]

23. MSNBC just said Clinton coming out with about 59 more delegates

Where are you guys getting all this "Obama wins" stuff?

[Whisp]

22. omg I don't believe this. do, but don;t.

I am overflowing with gratitude to the gawds. that sometimes things are right.

even for a little while, they are right.

I just convinced my hub tonite that 'the idea' of Obama and what he is doing was so precious. He understood.

[LordJFT]

24. you're wrong about nm, it's 14-8

[WonderGrunion]

25. And . . .

Obama had a much stronger showing in New York (40%) then Hillary did in Illinois (33%). That shows a better level of Obama's strength in the general election.

[jackson_dem]

26. How'd Obama do in Hillary's real home state of Arkansas?

;)

[newmajority]

27. I thought Hillary's "real" home state was Illinois?

Hard to tell with carpetbaggers sometimes :evilgrin:
