[Riddler]

26. Last time they went for a Dem was Hubert Humphrey....how'd that work out?

[BattyDem]

You're comparing Obama to Humphrey?

:rofl:

[Riddler]

32. Not at all. I just don't get excited over "indicators", especially when the last

"indicator" everyone is so excited about gave us Nixon

[BattyDem]

33. It's going to be a looooong day.

So why not enjoy the moment? There will be plenty of time to pull our hair out tomorrow, but tonight, we can all go to bed with smiles on our faces. It's a small victory ... but it's still a victory. :)

[DainBramaged]

38. HEY HH was a hero of mine growing up, you watch out there

:spank:

[BattyDem]

39. I wasn't trying to insult him.

There's no comparison between Obama and Humphrey because the circumstances are very different. With this election, we're witnessing something special, something that happens once in a generation. I'm 41 and I know I'll never see anything like this again. We're witnessing history. :-)

[Robbins]

34. Great

This Is a Republican town.This shows Republicans will vote for Obama In some areas.

This hurts the MSM's narrative of a Mccain comeback.This Is a great early sign to a Obama landslide.

35. Some analysis on this.

It's a great sign that a normally Republican area went heavily for Obama, the first time a Democrat won it in 40 years.

Yes, it will be mentioned that when Humphrey won it in 1968, he still lost the General Election to Nixon.

However, it must be noted that Humphrey was down by double-digits to Nixon in the latest polls before the 1968 election, so it was very likely he wasn't going to win anyway.

NIXON-HUMPHREY, 1968. During general election campaigning, most polls showed Democrat Hubert Humphrey trailing Republican Richard Nixon by double-digits. Many blue-collar Democrats had thrown their support to American Independent Party candidate George Wallace. But as the election neared, many Wallace supporters shifted to Humphrey and the election ended up closer than expected in key states and overall. Nixon won the popular vote by about 512,000 votes, or one percentage point.




It is different this time, not only does the Democrat have a 7 to 12 point lead in national polls, he also won a typically Republican bellweather area of New Hampshire.
