This is good news. She finally won something so now she stays in and keeps the heat on Obama. The enemedia will not like this at all.

Does that mean we should hear a concession speech from Hussein Obama within the hour? ;-)

You are right. Based on 53-47 she will net 2-3 delegates maximum.

If the margin was really 53-47 then her campaign is in serious trouble. This may have broken Obama’s winning streak after 12 states, but this is about the umpteenth time in a row where the actual margin between the two candidates ended up being much more heavily in his favor than all of the polls had indicated.

Wow, from Woonsocket to Providence. From Pawtucket to Warwick...The voters have spoken. I say that they have given a mandate to Hillary Clinton.
Barak Hussein Obama, step down and give up this presidential race!!!

When you win Rhode Island that says it all.

I have a feeling that all of a sudden, the 'little' states are finally going to count!

I really hope she can pull it off in Texas, if Obama sees his shadow, there will be seven more weeks of campaigning!

Damn. I was hoping she’d continue to be shut out. Still, Obama won 11 or so states since Hillary’s last.

That was a backhanded slap at Obama saying he would be president in grade school and Hillary's lifetime belief she is predestined to be the first woman POTUS.

McCain had to fight for it. He lost in 2000 and looked doomed early in 2008 but outlasted everyone.

If the exit polls are accurate (very big if), she won both OH and TX.

Looks like Hillary won Ohio and she might pull out Texas.

Rush Limbaugh is stupid on this.

Oh well.....she ain’t dead yet and the media will go nuts if she wins 3 of 4 tonight. They’ll hail her as the comeback kid

No.

The longer Hillary stays in the race, the more the demorats will be divided and get nasty with each other.

A democrat candidate may look like the winner if the election were held today--but the election is still months away.

And the public is fickle.

You know what, that is exatly one of my train of thoughts. Klinton will still suck, but I think she will overcompensate when it comes to national security, for a liberal of course. Obama will have us surrendering to islamofascism.

Rodman? Was that the AP's error? Dennis wants to know.
