So I got it right, then! I said Clinton 54%, Obama 46%. Now, she'll get whacked in NC...
and she WILL lose in Indiana.

NC- Obama 59%, Clinton 41%
Indiana- Obama 52%, Clinton 48%

And the race will be effectively over.

3. Yep, it's looking like a 8-pt win for HIll in PA
when she needed high double digits. I think Barack takes NC 62-38 and I think your numbers for Indiana are possible.

7. She'll get her 8 pts, everyone will go ga-ga for her for a couple of days.
Then reality will set in and Obama will whack her good in May 6th and everything will be effectively over.

9. Hopefully the margin will be closer, but I think it'll be an 8 pt. win for Hill.

11. Its' been effectively over since the second Super Tuesday
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 09:14 PM by rocknation
Hillary needed to get at least 60% of the vote in ALL the March 4 contests in order to catch up with Obama--she came close only in Rhode Island. She needed 65% to make PA count, and now she'll need AT LEAST that much in ALL the remaining contests if she expects to make political hay with the superdelegates. She may have won, but she hasn't succeeded.

12. Why do you think she'll win Indiana?
Aren't there lots of blue collar voters there who she can help by outsourcing their job to China?

15. so NOW we matter, eh Hillary?
I'll bet my impending MA from UNCG that my phone rings this weekend (if not sooner) begging me for $$$.

Sorry, Hillary. I've already put my Obama sign in the yard.

24. Unless he loses by 40%
It is a trivial loss in terms of delegates.

20. I'll go with that!
*Sigh*

2 more weeks wading in this morass of mudslinging and negativity

But I'll take an Obama nomination later (since it can't be sooner).

Thanks! :hi:
