Must have been all those ballots that were brought in at the last minute. Pre selected for sure.

If it wasn’t the ballots, it was the tears on primary eve.

Liberals think with their emotions.

It would be impossible for them to fake running out of ballots. Obama's poll watchers would have witnessed it.

Ooops: Obama poll watchers kicked out

As much as I loath the Clintons and am ready to believe them capable of anything there is a less conspiracy minded explanation for this result.

All the pre election talk was of an Obama blow out and the Republicans deadlocked.

So it looks that a lot of the Independents, who can vote in either primary, said "Well heck, my vote will not count in the Dems election so I will go vote for my boy John McCain."

That would explain this massive last second swing away from Obama and towards McCain. It would also explain why Hillary is won if a bunch of Obama leaning independents went over to McCain based on the assumption that "Obama will win anyway, my vote will count over here"

All the rest of the vote results are coming out right in line with the pre election polls. Huck at 12, Rudy and Paul duking it out for 4th at 9% and Fred at 1. Edwards 17, Richardson 5, Kucinich 2.

It only at the top of the ticket, on both sides Dem and Republican that the results are wrong. Obama lost to Hillary, McCain did much better then predicted

We been had. The polls were all part of the play. Been done before and you know it will be done again. Hollywood writes the Clinton’s scripts.
