3. Love him or hate him...
His stories usually have some base. Of course, he has missed on a few, but he rarely just makes shit up. And he's been fairly pro-Obama this entire race.

24. Not yet clickable
Drudge does very little actual reporting- his site is just links to other news articles.

He does seem to get some stuff early- I suppose there's a "leaker" in every news outlet. Sometimes he gets things wrong, and they disappear never to be heard from again.

8. Just came up
I doubt it seriously.

Poblano predicts a five point Obama win in SD.

23. If Hillary wins either state today it will be bad for Obama
Will it give anything to her? probably not but it may give her the will to continue on to the convention.

10. ARG has done this many times with Clinton. See what they said about Iowa.
Just prior to Iowa, I believe it was, ARG published some ridiculous poll showing Hillary winning big over Obama. They are entirely unreliable.

22. He nailed Indiana & North Carolina. He missed Kentucky by wide margin, but
admitted when he posted his Kentucky predictions that he wasn't very confident in them.

Poblana = Nate Silver

15. Hillary has nothing to lose by "leaking" this to Drudge
Maybe it makes it onto CNN,Fox and energizes her voters.

13. If so, I will be greatly surprised
I've always seen SD as close and possibly a Obama state, but a landslide such as that I wouldn't have expected.

14. that's interesting.
would be an impressive win if that were to happen, I have to admit. It's funny because I complain about the polling so much, but when there haven't been many for the upcoming states in the last month, it kind of drives me crazy too.

21. They figured that 85% would show up
because that is the normal turnout in Puerto Rico.

numbers are correct.
