If Hillary wins Indiana, is it game, set, match?

[YEM]

That would be Indiana, Pa, NJ, NY, Ca, NY, Arz, Mass and MI. Game over, isn't it?

[LakeSamish706]

1. No, she's still behind in delegates and last time I checked thats what this race was about. n/t

[kennetha]

2. Indiana wouldn't be enough

But Indiana plus North Carolina would mean the end of Obama's campaign.

[YEM]

7. She would clearly have the popular vote if...

Florida and Mich. was counted. Why are Obama supporters so afraid of those states? And last I counted, Hillary still has the super delegate lead.

[Barack_America]

19. Wrong.

She only has the popular vote only if "uncommitted" counts for nothing in Michigan. I'd love to hear how she explains throwing away their votes.

And she only has the popular vote if NC is a draw, which it is unlikely to be.

[msallied]

20. YES! Let's add the results of a null election!

By the same merit, I think that any touchdown scored by a football team during its pre-game practice should count in the final score too.

[NeedleCast]

22. I've seen nothing that shows

she would have the popular vote lead if MI and FL were counted but feel free to post evidence to the contrary. In any case, Dean has said again and again it's the DELEGATE COUNT. Period.

Even with her 20 SD lead, Hillary still trails be a large margin in delegates.

More with the "Hillary Mathmatics" where only statistics where Hillary leads should be counted, right? Hillary is going to convention with less popular vote and less delegates.

Why is this so hard to understand?

[Joe the Revelator]

23. Is her name Hillary Stalin?

How else can you explain her supporters insane request to count results when her name was the only one on the ballot??

Also, this is a race for delegates, not the popular vote. There are four caucus states, that Obama won, that don't even report their popular vote. Why are you so scared of those states?

[John Q. Citizen]

24. I think political campaigns should be outlawed, don't you? It's only fair if candidates can't

campaign. Campaigning is really cheating.

[Voltaire]

35. Popular vote doesn't MATTER

Ask around!

The name of the game here is delegates. No matter how much and how often your candidate wants to change the rules.

[Exilednight]

45. When you think about it...............

[oasis]

10. Rev. Wright has put Hillary back into play in NC.(eom)

[cliffordu]

13. Based on what??

[oasis]

28. Based on Rasputin Wright's recent rantings.(eom)

[cliffordu]

29. So it's based on your dislike of wright??

[mmonk]

3. Current state count is 30 for Obama and 16 for Hillary.

My count says not.

[underpants]

4. By how much?

Shes down on the scoreboard

She has to win 68%+ and then have Obama not get a single solitary vote in the last 5 primaries just to pull even

[Boz]

5. Excuse me while I say HUH?

Pre Independence America?

[SoonerPride]

6. THE CONTEST IS ALREADY OVER. SHE HAS LOST.

She cannot catch up in pledged delegates.
The super delegates will not reverse the will of the voters.

IT IS OVER.

Obama is our nominee.

[mcctatas]

8. yes...

if you are using the hillbot 3000 to do your calculations. On a real calculator, um, hell no!

[cali]

9. huh? How would you figure that her winning Indiana would make her the winner?

I'd love an answer. I can string up a bunch of states two. So what? How is she the winner if he still leads by over 125 pledged delegates and the pop vote? Inquiring minds and all that.

[Warren DeMontague]

11. You enjoy yourself.

And your delusions.

She's still losing.

[YEM]

17. She's not losing.

She is winning the Superdelegate count and will have the popular vote when it's over.


Game. Set. Match.

[elocs]

26. Are you delusional or simply mentally challenged?

You are certainly math challenged if you actually believe at this time that Hillary is not losing.

[Cheap_Trick]

41. I think the short bus just pulled up to his house. n/t

[Warren DeMontague]

42. Yes,

she IS losing.

[BeyondGeography]

12. Asinine

[redqueen]

14. I was thinking this was a joke...

Wow.

Just... wow.

[NeedleCast]

15. No

Why do you (and other posters) keep acting like the democratic winner in a primary is going to automatically win or lose a state in the general? You think Obama is not going to win NY, NJ, CA, MA? Get real.

It's been game set match since Hillary failed to even come close to the numbers she needed in Ohio and Texas. Everything beyond that is just the death spasms of Hillary's campaign. Obama is going to convention with the popular and delegate vote lead. Unless Hillary can steal the nomination in back room deals, she has no chance.

[bobbert]

16. I agree, I think that that IN-MI combo is a 1-2 knockout punch

edit: I am assuming this was a joke

[Avalux]

18. No. The game is over despite what Hillary's campaign says or does.

It's the math plus the slow trickle of SDs to Obama which isn't stopping in spite of Rev. Wright.

[olkaz]

21. Sure, if you want to destroy the party.

It's up to the superdelegates. None of these state contests really matter at this point.

[WeDidIt]

25. Only if she takes 75% of the popular vote. n/t

[Spider Jerusalem]

27. She still can't and won't win the nomination. She will still be behind by over 100 pledged delegates

It's over, already. And the game isn't tennis, by the way. It's more like boxing. Nearing the bell in the twelfth round, and ten of the twelve rounds so far have been scored to her opponent. She's had a bit of a late rally, but she'll still lose the decision.

[thoughtcrime1984]

30. DUzy?

Scarborough?

[zulchzulu]

31. Her record would then be 15-30. Love.

[JackORoses]

32. no, not even close. North Carolina is the largest state remaining, and he will trounce her there.

She cannot catch up, or even make it close really.

[DU9598]

33. LOL - NO

[Lucky 13]

34. Well she'll still be behind in the delegate count, so NO.

Until she overtakes him in delegates, it's his to lose.

[Mooney]

36. Nope.

Unless Indiana nets HRC 150 delegates.

[Indenturedebtor]

37. In answer to your question..... YES

It would still be game, set, match.

She fought a good fight and played a good game.

Well before Edwards dropped out anyways. After that she played like KKK Rove and lost. It's over... lets get ready for the GE and make sure that McDeath doesnt get elected ok?

[undeterred]

38. No, It will be over when she concedes.

She won't get enough delegates to win the nomination. Sorry, we thought you knew that.

[haymakeragain]

39. by 40 points, that and all the rest of the states, then she is close to being even.

Other than that, she cannot catch up.

[book_worm]

40. No, Obama has won 30 states already

and she has won 15, if she wins Indiana that is 16 and NC for Obama will be 31.

[Texas Hill Country]

43. yup

[Zachstar]

44. No

[CakeGrrl]

46. Did you forget the SARCASM tag?

Shows us where she pulls ahead in anything after winning IN and even NC, not counting the illegal gains in FL and MI.

[Apollo11]

47. I think Hillary needs to net delegates on May 6th.

If Obama wins more delegates than Hillary on May 6th (North Carolina and Indiana combined), he will prove that he has bounced back from the Pastor Wright controversy.

But I guess Hillary will continue her campaign if she wins >50% of the vote in Indiana.

[Yossariant]

48. NO, but it's game, set, match if she wins NC -- though I don't think she will.

[neverforget]

49. Guam is the Key! Don't forget Guam!

[Egnever]

50. LOL dream big!
