It's official: Hillary will win the nomination
http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/political_commentary/commentary_by_dick_morris/obama_the_democratic_nominee_yes_he_can

Dick Morris says he thinks Obama will win the nomination.

So it's official, Hillary will win the next few states, and then Texas, Ohio, Pennslyvania and then win the nomination. :(

13. What is wrong with his analysis? I don't see the error in his argument.
Obama will have too much momentum going into OH, TX, and PA. Hillary needs to win those states in a landslide. She cannot do it. Obama wins the nomination.

14. I'd have to agree
Even Karl Rove (yuck) was agreeing that it was too large of a hurdle for HRC to jump. And this is the same guy who said HRC was the big winner on Super Tuesday.

22. He was on Foxnews... and regretably I watched it
He says that he thinks Obama can win Ohio and Texas due to all the momentum he is gathering.

2. Dick Morris was hired by and worked for Bill Clinton doing polling and focus groups.
Is Morris experienced?

3. Not really
Like many other right wingers, he now makes his living after the Clinton years bashing the Clinton family at every opportunity. He really is a shill.

26. Yes, he's a shill who used to work for Clinton. He was shilling then and he still is.
Makes me wonder about the "good judgement" of the Clinton administration.

6. As an Obama supporter that is not welcome news. He is never right
He is the one that said Giuliani would win the nomination.

9. Don't bash the messenger, look at his analysis. That's what I've been saying all along.
Obama's 100 delegate majority is too much for Clinton to cover. It's just too much!

7. Does this guy even read polls?
I can understand a lot of the victories for Obama he's predicting, but Ohio and PA? Not unless his momentum can overcome like a 20 point deficit.

11. It'll be trivial for Obama to bring those margins close.
He doesn't even have to try. He just has to visit each state and it'll happen, magically.

19. Morris: "Since 2004, I have predicted that Hillary Clinton would be the nominee."
Fear not, Obama supporters - Dick Morris is admitting he was wrong for the past 4 years! :)
