Re: Obama's Numbers [John Hood]
Rich, I'm told that a new Survey USA poll for a NC television station today will put Clinton within five points of Obama. So, yeah, assume a roomful of scaredy cats over at Obama HQ.
Now if McPain chooses someone more liberal and elite than himself, those people never voting for Hillary may just be disgusted enough not to vote, to take the day off (working of course) and let the bi**h become President by default.

In a Democratic Primary in North Carolina today, 04/29/08, one week till votes are counted, the 10-point lead that Barack Obama has had for two months is halved, to now 5 points, Obama 49%, Clinton 44%, according to SurveyUSA’s 7th tracking poll, conducted exclusively for WTVD-TV Raleigh. In SurveyUSA last four polls, over the past two months, Obama has led by 10, 8, 10, and 9 points. Today: 5. White voters are key. Since January, Clinton had led among Carolina whites by 14, 19, 17, 22 and 23 points. But today, suddenly: 31. In the Research Triangle, Clinton is up 9 points, week-on-week; Obama is down 3; a net swing of 12 points to Clinton. Among unaffiliated voters, Clinton has overtaken Obama for the first time in 2008, though the difference is small and within the sub-group’s margin of sampling error. The two tie among Moderates. Obama leads slightly among Liberals. Clinton leads slightly among Conservatives. There is enough cross-current in the political waters that SurveyUSA’s final pre-Primary poll, next week, may show more movement — though in which direction it is impossible to know.
That's about 20% of the Dems constituency. I wouldn't be surprised if there were riots if Hillary gets the nomination.
Relax. She can’t win enough delegates. Super delegates dont have the guts. A very damaged Obama will be the nominee or else there will be rioting in the streets of Denver and elsewhere.
The remaining states are more conservative states, so Hillary is likely to narrow the delegate gap a little, but she needs to get about 3/4 of the remaining superdelegates that haven't declared for one of the other so far in order to take the lead.
It really still is Obama's nomination to lose, and Wright by himself doesn't appear to be enough of a millstone around his neck to sink him.
I'm sure Hillary still has some tricks up her pants suit jacket sleeve, but with a large portion of the media running cover for Obama, I'm not sure she's got enough ammo to take him out.
I don't want to underestimate Hillary, but she's not used to having to fight a hostile press. After all, who would have thought a year ago that Bill Clinton's efforts on the campaign trail would have been so successfully shut down by the press not playing along with him?
I disagree with your disagreement. The clintin machine will flood the black neighborhoods with 'walking money' and cigarettes, and they'll roll out the buses. The residents of these cities will do just about anything the democrat party asks if their axles are greased with walking money and smokes.
Based on what do you assume that?
It's a rookie mistake that now makes him look weak. Hillary would have shut the guy up at the first sign of trouble and rode out the storm.
“Operation Chaos is working!
Hillary wins!”
The funny thing to me about Operation Chaos is how Rush is using Ms. Clinton like a man with Montezuma’s Revenge uses toilet paper. Whoodathunkit?
Based on what?
I must respectively disagree with the previous posts.
If Obama drops out, the black vote will turnout for Clinton.
If Obama stays in and Clinton get the nomination, the black vote will turnout and will still turn out for Clinton.
The Democrats and their allies will do everything to get out the vote. Blacks may not like Clinton but they will still turnout and vote overwhelmingly for the Democrats on the ticket, including Clinton.
The polls show most of the Obama supporters willing to support Clinton not the other way around.
Everyone on this site knows about the Clintons. I think we will see operation Chaos to have been a mistake.
With THAT in mind, the women in Hillary's life haven't yet told their stories.
All around it's a pretty grim year Republicans. We can still have fun listening to Rush regarding Operation Chaos (or is it KAOS?).
Rasmussen has him up by 14 points in North Carolina.

I just don’t understand how anyone can continue to vote for him.
I just know things. I was predicting McCain as nominee last summer. ;)
The S.S. Obama
For sure, John McCain won’t fight She Who Cackles for the Oval Office, and it is not even certain that he would make much of a contest against Barack Mohammed (since we are no longer to refer to his given middle name) Obama, Jr., the charismatic, messianic Magic Negro. But as is becoming all the more apparent all the time, poor Barack may have discovered that ship has already sailed. The Reverend Dr. Jeremiah Bullfrog, er, Wright has just about cast off all the lines, and if anchor has also been lifted, the boat is probably adrift.
And if Hillary IS going to be the next President, then that changes the whole dynamic. Suddenly She Who Cackles OWNS the problems, and can either attempt to continue on the “kick the can down the road” strategy as was done before, or actually turn around and FACE the problems.
Imagine a reprise of 9/11, only about ten times as bad.
No kicking the can down the road on THAT.
If Hillary is the nominee, you can bet the house Obama will be her running mate. She has no choice, and he will happily accept it for the sake of party unity.
It’s really peeing me off listening to Rush gloat on this. Today he said without sounding disappointed, that it’s not his fault if hillary wins. Then he goes on bragging about “Operation Idiot”.
It'll be a blood fest when all their connections come to be aired in front of the American public.
Maybe Mcpain will challenge and fight against the hildabeast. He'll never fight against obama he'd be too afraid of being called a racist.
