Who agrees with this after tonight?

If it goes that way, I'm going to be about as enthused as getting a root canal.:-(

14. Clinton could not have put Obama away tonight
Due to the number of proportional rather than winner-take-all states, there was no realistic way for Clinton to put Obama away today.

15. Missouri and California won't Change
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 01:28 AM by Mistwell
98% reporting in for Missouri. They will basically split the delegates.

Clinton's lead in California, in so many districts by so much, is too much for Obama to overcome.
The delegates will change with results, but not the overall result in California.

8. Disagree - and your being way premature!
Obama won at least 13 states!

And the primary schedule favors him from here on out.

It will be close --- but in the end, Obama will be our nominee, IMO. :)

12. Yep, that's been the plan all along.
The media always gets what it wants.

I predict McCain will chose Huckabee as VP. :scared:

18. Look at how big of a victory this was for Hillary.
She would absolutely crush McCain in the General election.

I wanted Obama, but even though I'm not much of a Hillary fan, she'd be much better than that Bush clone McCain.

19. I thought it would be a Romney vs. Hillary race.
After reading Romney founded the huge corporate buy-out firm, Bain Capital...and how the Bush's were raising money for Romney....and how Lynn Cheney came out just yesterday in support of Romney...I thought for sure the people who stole the last two presidential elections for Junior, were about to do the same for their next Manchurian Candidate Mitt Romney.

What I forgot to take into consideration was to think like Karl Rove. We shouldn’t be listening to what the White House Mafia says, we have to watch what they do. Lynn CHENEY giving her endorsement to Romney should have been a sure sign that the criminals in the White House knew people would vote for just the opposite.

Seeing McCain on the cover of Newsweek should have been a sure sign as to which candidate the warmongers were backing. ...Newsweek is owned by the same corporation which owns MSNBC, GE. Beside manufacturing appliances, General Electric happens to be a defense contractor that manufactures engines for F-16 fighter planes and plastics used to make weapons.

I personally think that the White House Mafia is stringing McCain along. I think in the end, Mrs. NAFTA will be crowned Queen. ...If a democrat wins, no one will think or question if the GOP controls our elections.

I believe it's nieve to think that the people who stole the last two presidential elections would give up their power. ...Corporate America will win.
