Hillay bites the dust
That loud sucking sound heard in Potomic area was Hillary losing 3 more
primaries. It looks like the only way Hillary will win the primary is if Billary can steal this away with super delegates and some rule changes. |

Things like promising everybody $5k for every kid born during her administration is a great way get attention and buy votes. It's a classic. Eisboch |

I really didn't think she had much of a chance when she started. For what it is worth, some of the more rowdy boys on the firearms discussion groups have been talking about voting for Obama in the primaries in their states in order to help him win, because they think he'll be easier to defeat in the general. In other words, they were talking about *not* voting in the GOP primaries, as they usually do, and crossing over to vote for Obama. If this is the case, I have no idea how widespread it is...or isn't. I'm pretty much convinced that either Obama or Clinton will flush McCain down the toilet, so I don't care which of them wins the Democratic nomination. Yet another reason why I prefer *closed* primaries and secret ballot voting, as opposed to open primaries, which encourage crossovers, and caucuses, which encourage group vote, not secret ballot vote. The far-righties are really getting apoplectic about the general election. May they all burst an artery. |

I read that Rush was recommending people contribute to Hillary's campaign because he believed the Repub's can beat Hillary, but Obama will win against McCain. |

McCain has a arrogant tone. Obama has an optimistic tone. Obama will win against McCain. McCain will win against Hillary. |

The media spin, however makes it look like Obama is just running away with the nomination. |

I like the rough and tumble of tight primary races and conventions in which delegates make a difference, and have to vote many times in order to select a delegate. A good convention is like a microcosm of the House of Representatives, with the delegates elected by the people back home working for consensus. It's not the same animal as a caucus. Today's conventions are just too antiseptic for my taste. Oh, and despite what the pundits say, I believe Clinton and Obama will be well-served by fighting for the nomination to the very end. Democrats will be happy with either candidate. |

You don't suppose Republicans are responsible for the record turnouts in the Democratic primaries? Nah, I think Obama is bringing record numbers into the fold. Either that, or record numbers of Americans are motivated by the past eight years of Bush. |
