Fire at Will! ;o)

Thanks, Rush.

Forget the primaries, and caucuses that are left. It’ll all come down to what they do about Florida and Michigan.................

[wideawake]

The delegate counts are based on what Clinton and Obama believe to be their number of pledged delegates.

Each has a different count of their own, hence discrepancies.

[smoothsailing]

Too bad, I was really hoping Dennis Kucinich would be the compromise choice. :)

[Momaw Nadon]

Would it now be prudent for Rush to urge Republicans to vote for Obama en masse in the remaining Democratic primaries?

[The_Republican]

There are differences. I checked Obama’s own website - He has exact 10 more delegates, BOTH for himself and Hillary. I think that makes this data from RCP slightly more believeable.

[Crimson Elephant]

Hillary winning the Pop Vote would be a massive boost to her case.

[The_Republican]

If he is honest (Chaos and not choosing Hillary was the intention) he should.

[Always Right]

Wouldn't it be great if the Democratic nomination came down to this?

[Beagle8U]

No. It’s better for Hildabeast to be the RAT nominee because it will drive the moonbats nuts and send them to Nader. The black vote will riot and then stay home in Nov.

[Uncle Hal]

The estimate above gives Michigan to Hillary. I believe that state is tossup and may actually lean towards Obama. It has big black population.

[The_Republican]

Last time GOP managed to beat either of the Klinton was for Attorney General office in Arkansas.

Klintons and Media know what buttons to push to bring Black back to the Reservation.

If she is the Nominee, she WILL be the President.

GOP has NO chance of Flipping ANY of the Gor/Kerry States against her. She would on the other hand FLIP Arakansas, Iowa, New Mexico, and Ohio. She would also give McCain run for his money in Coloradao, Nevada, Tenessee, and Virginia.

Young Voters (Moonbats?) not showing in record numbers would make this election, just like any other election. There loss is not end of the world for Hillary.

Again, Blacks, even now they can’t wait to kiss Massa Klinton’s foot. They will apologize for this primary season.

[Beagle8U]

Detroit is about 90% black but overall MI doesn't have near as many blacks as lots of other states.

The vote to ban affirmative action passed by a wide margin.

[The_Republican]

You are correct. It does have about 15% Black Population. Obama also had Union Backing.

However, I am assuming by that time Hildabeast would have STRONG WIND behind her. The “new voters” would be abandoning USS Obama at that point. Could be wrong.

I hate Klintons and want them to lose. I also think our best bet is to beat Obama with everything else we have to overcome in this election cycle.

[Beagle8U]

We’ll just have to disagree. I think Hildabeast is easy to beat in Nov.

[rock_lobsta]

In Dearborn, he could campaign as B. Hussein Osama - and win big over there...

[CharlesWayneCT]

The “2025 needed” number is based on NOT seating the Florida and Michigan delegates. If they seat those delegates, the total needed will go up accordingly.

[Secret Agent Man]

I am so glad Hillary and Obama are a) bloodying themselves up, b) spending more time and LOTS of resources on each other, c) every time they rip the other or respond, they’re giving ammo and sound bites to be used against whichever one is the final candidate.

Divide and conquer. The dems have done this so many times to us - hell they helped us get McCain. They screwed us, we need to screw them back.

[The_Republican]

ROFL!
