No Gloating here....I honestly think it is over if Obama gets 60% in Virginia

[Perky]

and half the white vote. It not only defeates the electability argument, but it is going to make the primaries vary difficult for Clinton in Ohio.


She can't simply score a victory in Ohio. SHe needs to win about 60% to start eating into the elected delegate lead and the assertion to donore that that is a possibiulity once we see the next OHio poll is going to seem far fetched.

If he gets 65% in Virginia. I would not be suprised if Hillary calls it quits because the mountain is just to steep to climb.

[Occam Bandage]

1. Even if he won 80%, it wouldn't be over.

[yeswecan08]

2. Hillary should do the noble thing and think of the party

[RL3AO]

3. It is getting tough for HRC, but there is no way she is dropping out before March 5.

And I'm an Obama guy FYI.

[judaspriestess]

4. you're gloating perky

[Perky]

10. I am simply looking at the numbers.... I have no real problem with her staying in

I just do not see anywafor her to keep up in delegate count or fundraising given what she has to do,

[judaspriestess]

12. It ain't over baby

It would be extremely foolish is she quit now and I don't see why she should.

[TwilightGardener]

5. No way. She won't ever quit. She's got Chelsea begging superdelegates on her behalf.

[hogwyld]

15. Not only Chelsea

But I'm sure the Big Dog is promising some pretty good perks to the uncommited SD's. Call me a :tinfoilhat: but I anticipate the Clinton family to pull out all the tricks in it's bag to secure this nomination.

[shadowrider]

16. Exactly

NEVER underestimate the Clintons and what they're capable of.

[THUNDER HANDS]

6. she has to go through Texas and Ohio

she'd be foolish not to.

I have no doubt she will. But afterwards...

[Bucky]

19. Absolutely, The longer the campaign runs on, the more excitement will build up.

DUers are thrashing & hashing, but this contest is really pumping up the electorate for a Democratic win in November.

[sniffa]

23. But, they may embarrass her too

How would that play for a future run?

[Tatiana]

7. It's not over by a long-shot. Hillary will take this to the convention. n/t

[Kahuna]

18. Before then, a posse will visit her to deliver the news.. Hang it up Billary! nt

[katty]

8. well it might be, but they will have to drag her out

[Blue-Jay]

9. I wouldn't be so quick to call Ohio if I were you.

And I certainly don't think that Sen. Clinton should be counted out at this point.

I appreciate your excitement, but it's still too close to call right now.

[AX10]

13. Yes it is.

[KAZ]

11. It's not the vote, it's the money.

Though a chicken/egg thing can be debated. Look to WI. for answers.

[TexasObserver]

14. "It's not ova!! It's never ova!!" --- Hillary, quoting John Rambo

Even when she loses Texas, they'll have to drag her out of the race kicking and screaming "BUT I'M HILLARY!! HILLARY!!"

[Kahuna]

20. Feministas! Why hast thou forsaken me? nt

[TexasObserver]

24. She plans on seizing the Alamo with NY State NOW, and holding it until March 4th.

13 days of glory at the siege of the Alamo

[Bucky]

21. She's a fighter. I admire that.

I'm not for her, but I don't think she's ever made it about her or her career.

Let's try and be grown ups in our moment of victory.

[Kahuna]

17. It's not about gloating. I claim this victory for David Shuster!!!

Free Shuster!!!!

[TheDonkey]

22. If he gets over 60% this is a huge victory. More to go but BIG win. Great job Obama campaign!

Thank you volunteers and staffers!
