Hillary won more votes last night and is surging in the national polling. Why?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

I'm especially interested in hearing from Obamania nation

[K Gardner]

1. You're interested in absolutely nothing but one-line flamebait spamming.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

3. I could use more words to expound but I always assume the intelligence of DUers

doesn't require that

[Radical Activist]

How does it feel

to be the least respected person at DU? I assume you saw the entire thread of people sick of your efforts to drag down this forum. Do you really think you're doing any good? Actually, I suspect doing anything good was never your goal to begin with.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

16. Why is asking a question about why a candidate is winning "dragging down" a forum

[Radical Activist]

20. Oh you're playing ignorant to pretend innocence.

Nice way of avoiding the issue. You know full well what I'm talking about. That's the tactic I usually see from the disingenuous hate radio zombies. How interesting that you're adopting their tactics.

2. How many more votes

did she win last night?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

5. between 50 and 100 thousand

[MonkeyFunk]

22. it's over 200,000

according to CNN's latest numbers.

[Radical Activist]

4. Its becuase of your constant nasty spamming of this forum. You won the election for her.

Good job.

8. C'mon? what are you saying?

[Quixote1818]

31. Great message. You made my day!

:thumbsup: :hi:

[southern_dem]

6. one day in one poll does not a surge make n/t

[ORDagnabbit]

7. all I know is obama has more delegates than her and has a helluva lot more money

[Proud2BAmurkin]

11. why did she win more votes and why is he trending down

[ORDagnabbit]

17. cause she won more votes is why she has more votes but that doesnt equal more delegates as for the

trending down you're the only one saying that

[IndieLeft]

9. Obama leads in pledged delegates.

Hillary has more superdelegates.

The PEOPLE have spoken, but the politicians are ignoring them.

[TheDeathadder]

15. The Delegates are pretty much even

So? How about not insulting the even amount of "people" who have vote Clinton.

[Dogmudgeon]

10. Where is she surging in the polls?

It does make sense, though, because so many of the Obamaniacs are hyper today.

--p!

[PaDem]

12. because we in the Democratic Party have a Napolean.......

Complex. We love to lose.

Just the same, she has no "momentum". Anyone who thinks that last night was anything worse than a draw for Obama is being dishonest with themselves. Why all the posturing? Are you that worried about your candidate?

[themaguffin]

13. Hillary is the incumbent who has had the huge lead for a year, there's no surge

[okasha]

18. Hillary's President?

Really?

[themaguffin]

27. that's how they marketed themselves.... don't ask me, ask Penn

[okasha]

34. As the incumbent President?

No, I really don't think so. Or do you just not know what "incumbent" means?

[milkyway]

14. Hey P2Burkin, need a loan?

[CoffeeCat]

19. Can you show us a link to the polls

...where Hillary "is surging" and "Obama is trending downward" as
you suggest?

Thnx.

[catagory5]

21. hey i love hillary but...

where is the surge? I think at the most she slowed the Obama machine way down and she is holding steady or maybe going up a tad bit. But all in all, I think there are holding steady. What did happen after last night is she is gonna have huge donations for several days to come!

[maddiejoan]

most recent poll

25. she'll ned to, but I doubt she'll be able to come close

to what he's gonna raise in the next couple of days. There's a HUGE fundraisng effort for him across the liberal blogosphere.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

[CoffeeCat]

29. I thought you had a meaningful poll...

These numbers don't mean a thing!

In almost every state-race that is discussed, Hillary supporters point out national polls, which
have no bearing on the individual state races.

Those national polls, which showed Hillary with a 20 point national lead--were meaningless when Obama
won Iowa, when he came within a few points in NH and NV and when he trounced in South Carolina.

He just won 13 states, with the Super Tuesday practically ending up a draw and you're still touting those national polls?

Those national polls were still 15 points Hillary---when Obama secured his SC blowout.

Show me what you've got on Louisiana, Nebraska, Washington and Maine.

I've been looking all day, and unable to find anything.

28. Maybe Obama is getting too much press.......

it's a fine line to walk. We've seen the press overplay things to the point we hate to hear the name of the person we were at one time sympathetic to.

[nonconformist]

32. I predict a backlash against all of the hype and hoopla soon anyway.

Honestly, that type of bandwagon support turns a lot of people off, and it makes them suspicious when the media pushes it so hard.

I just hope we see the backlash before the nominee is named, not after.

[BlackVelvet04]

33. yeah.....

my husband, who hates politics and all things political, said something night before last about how obnoxious the news channel had been with the constant stories about Obama.

[GOPBasher]

30. Because the corporate media can't wait to beat us.

They see the polls, and realize that Hillary, with an unfavorability rating of 45%-50%, will be much easier to beat than Obama, with an unfavorability rating of 26% - 30%. They all know McCain will beat her.

35. Kick.
