Is it true that even if Clinton wins Texas OH and PA she still won't have enough delegates

[bigdarryl]

to beat Obama to the 2025 needed.If true this Democratic Primary system is UN AMERICAN I hate to say it but i like the rethug system better winner take all.

1. Winner take all is stupid as hell.

You must like the electoral college too.

2. ?? She has to have enough big victories to equal Obama's big victories...

What is undemocratic about that?

If she wins those states by 60-65% or more she will have enough delegates. Obama has won many states by those margins, so that's why it's necessary for her to do so.

3. NO. Just more obamaganda.

5. Depends on the margins of victory

I could post the math if you want. Excluding PA, she would need to win by 32 points in both Texas and Ohio to take the lead.

6. No, it's not "obamaganda"

It's the truth. Unless she wins by 30+ points in both Ohio and Texas, she stands no chance of catching up.

7. Mark Penn has said she must pull to within 25 delegates of Obama

after OH and TX to remain viable.

4. She would need to win big

To get the delegate lead on March 4 she would have to have a larger delegate advantage in both Ohio and Texas than she did in Cali

8. What? Winner take all is better?

Look at the GOP results in Missouri:

McCain 33%
Huckabee 32%
Romney 29%

Yet despite that McCain gets all the delegates with about a third of the vote. That's fair?
