1. Overseas voters have 22 delegates, nobody counts us!

Since the polls are open thru 2/12, I wonder how they will tally it? And when?

[Hoof Hearted]

2. Trying it one more time without the insulting slam on Hispanics eh?

Shrewd.

3. At least he hasn't resorted to his usual homophobic statements tonight...

"To show my support for Donnie McClurkin, I am donating to the Obama campaign!"
"Donnie McClurkin quotes have been taken out of context!"

6. Did you, or did you not say that you were donating to Obama BECAUSE OF McClurkin?

Did you, or did you not say that McClurkins quotes were "taken out of context"?

The McClurkin controversy has inspired me to make a donation to the Obama campaign.

He was talking about himself, personally. The other two are taken out of context

7. Kicking for a response

15. Isn't it interesting how passive aggression can cloud one's

memory?

lol

[Clintonista2]

16. He's a maggot. I've never seen a more blatantly homophobic/racist poster on DU.

[calteacherguy]

4. Clearly, race still plays a role in our elections.

More blacks and whites in California voted for Obama, more asians and latinos voted for Clinton.

Point is we need to reach out to each other to overcome it. I would hope someday elections would not divide along racial lines like this. It's encouraging in many areas of the country Obama did well with white folks as well as black folks, but we need to reach out to latinos and asians, clearly. It starts with building relationships. Clinton had a headstart.

8. How is the listing of states insulting hispanics?

[Clintonista2]

10. In another post, he stated that Hispanics are "prejudiced" and that's why Clinton won CA

[RummyTheDummy]

11. Whether or not they're predjudiced or not is irrelevant

The facts are that she does well with hispanics and they helped her win Ca.

[Clintonista2]

12. It's racist.

[RummyTheDummy]

13. So she doesn't do well with hispanics

Okay :shrug:

[Clintonista2]

14. No, maybe I need to be more clear. The OP made the point that

"Hispanics are prejudiced" against blacks, which is why Obama didn't win. You don't consider that to be racist?

[RummyTheDummy]

9. He has a legit shot at winning 8 of the 10 listed.

She probably wins Maine. I think she also takes Va. by a slim margin.

[MaineDem]

17. I'm not sure Clinton will win Maine

I'm hearing lots of buzz...I mean a LOT of buzz...for Obama. They're organized here, phonebanking, and doing a great Get-out-to-caucus effort.

Not a peep from the Clinton campaign.

[Radical Activist]

21. Maine usually votes for liberals.

Kucinich did very well there in '04. Jesse Jackson won it. I think it goes to Obama.

[William769]

18. Wow what a propaganda machine!

Lets see Gore Edwards endorsement coming on monday, what happened?

Obama up by 13 in California, what happened?

Just to name a few.

[Apollo11]

19. Well, they do say that February is "Black History Month"

But it would be a big mistake to "misunderestimate" the Clintons.

I think Hillary should focus on Washington, Maryland and Wisconsin.

I don't think Hillary Clinton needs to worry about polls.

The fact is in every State of the Union, most Democrats are women.

[Radical Activist]

20. Nebraska looks good. I don't know about Louisiana.

It borders Arkansas.

Maine usually goes for the liberal so that's likely an Obama state.

Obama should do very well on Feb 19 since he grew up in Hawaii and Wisconsin knows Obama well. It could be over on 2/19 if he wins big in most of the Feb states.

[Uben]

22. I t does look good for him

....but then there is March, which doesn't bode as well. It doesn't end after February,and I don't think Obama can change that.
