Obama just added another 100,000 votes to his National Popular Vote Lead with lil ol Mississippi

[JackORoses]

To put this in perspective,
Hillary only pulled a 300,000 vote lead out of Florida which had nearly 3 million voters. Not to mention it was a flawed election.
Mississippi only had ~ 400,000 voters, yet Obama takes it by 100,000 votes..

She will never catch him in the Popular Vote at this rate.
Even if MI and FL hold revotes.

Her last argument to the Superdelegates has been rendered null and void.

Obama will win the Pledged Delegates
Obama will win most of the States
Obama will win the Popular Vote

What now, Hillary?
Anything left in that Kitchen?

[Barack_America]

1. "Anything left in that Kitchen?"...Yep. Matches.

If she can't be President, no Dem can. :nuke:

[Occam Bandage]

2. Yeah, but it has black people in it, so it doesn't count. They're not worth as much.

[FARAFIELD]

3. yes its only 3/5th

well heck he would still win even at that rate. I think the win will be 92K but 100K sounds round so what the heck

4. Here's her latest strategy

First, only big states that she has won counts.

Second, pledged delegates are actually two separate groups of delegates - "primary delegates" and "caucus delegates". The former count (in states Hillary has won), while the latter don't count.

Third, Obama is not ready to be commander-in-chief (but he is ready to be the proverbial heartbeat away from being commander-in-chief the moment Hillary is sworn in).

Fourth, Obama was lucky to be born black, with all of the privileges that usually go along with that (you know, things like being made editor of the Harvard Law Review, which has always been given to black guys).

5. Funny thing about the second point is that Obama has more primary delegates.

[stahbrett]

9. Ah, but the primaries that Obama won don't really count!

Too many blacks, or too many independents, or Obama had more money to spend, or Obama played the race card by tricking someone in the Clinton campaign to make a racially-themed/racially-dumb statement, and then had the GALL to turn around and criticize the statement! That Obama is so uppity, with his shucking and jiving...

6. Obama wasn't on the ballot in

Florida as we all know so what's her name didn't win shit in Florida or Michigan. I just thought of her name..little miss lyin' pants.

[TheZug]

7. Those votes don't count--they're small, red, and black.

8. come the general election

the South will vote GOP.... my opinion.

[JackORoses]

11. This is not the General Election.

This is the Democratic Primary. In the Democratic Primary, all Democrats are allowed to have their voices heard.
We do not ignore People just because their state might vote Republican.
This is their chance to have an influence.

For all the Hillarite bloviating about MI/FL disenfranchisement,
they are sure quick to write millions of voters off as insignificant based only on location.

[TheDoorbellRang]

10. They had over 5X the number of voters today than they did in 2004

Turnout in 2004 dem primary was 76,298 (GreenPapers). Right now they have 401,201 with 99% of returns in. It'd be interesting to know how many of those votes were Publicans.

Looks like she's even further away from a catch up in delegates OR popular vote. Heh.

[phrigndumass]

12. Wait ... isn't Mississippi a "primary" state?

I thought we changed the rules so that all pledged delegates from primary states go to HRC. What happened? Do we have to change the rules again? Maybe I'm wrong ... Maybe they meant only the primary states with lots of popular votes that vote mostly for her? Or just the primary states with low turnout from African-Americans? Or just the primary states that are large? We need to divide it up even more and set that bar WAY lower so HRC can jump over it already!
