2008 Primaries Thread 2: THE QUICKENING

superdelegates aside I think that if obama takes either texas or ohio then he's going to be so far ahead in pledged delegates that hillary is going to be out, or at least, it would make sense for her to bow out. but we'll see.

yeah Hillary's mounting excuses sound like she's dismissing the electorate ("oh those negros don't matter, neither does THAT state cuz we won't win it in the GE, by the way the only states that do matter are the ones where I'm polling ahead even though I may not win them, etc.") That shit is not gonna play well - no one wants to back a loser.

otoh I honestly can't conceive of Hillary bowing out gracefully. I predict some kind of scary meltdown/lashing out.

"Nothing to see here; those states aren't gonna vote for us, so they obviously do not matter, duh." xposts

I'm ashamed she won my state but proud Obama won my district

(and I have no doubt Obama would sweep CA in the GE)

McCain/Clinton '08

i'm passing up an opportunity to hear obama speak in 10 minutes. instead, i will take a nap. and then eat tacos.

You know you wanna

xp

i have no doubt obama would sweep CA if the election were this week rather than last

Tacos 1, Obama 0.

Clinton/Lieberman 08

Lieberman/Sharpton 12

tacos/obama 08

i'd prefer tacos to be on the other side of the ticket, but yeah.

oh man i want tacos

Hassan Nemazee, another national finance chairman for Mrs. Clinton HRC, said he was also telling his network of allies not to get caught up in the headlines about Obama

“I’m telling donors and supporters: Don’t be overly concerned about what goes on in the remainder of the month of February because these are not states teed up well for us,” Mr. Nemazee said

Um, let's try that again:

FOR PRESIDENT xxp

yeah gOOblar said that already

oh i see what you did

DC 4 OBAMA SUPRISE!

"tacos/obama 08"

Obama/Richardson 08!

i went into the booth tonight planning to vote tacos but I wound up picking the special, calabacitas con puerca, instead

an obama/tacos ticket could not possibly lose

this election will be decided by cilantro.

is america ready for a spicy president

cilantro is very controversial

obama > chimichangas > tacos

maybe

hillary is already in texas? seems desperate. is she gonna live there until the primary?

tacos> obama > cilantro> chimichangas

do you guys like tacos? I do!

TACOS FOR CHANGE

chimichangas are clearly the john edwards of this debate here

hey guys...TACOS ON A PLANE!

so if huckabee win virgina tonite mccain cant wrap up the nom until may 6th! i just heard this lol

"wrap up"

Yeah, cilantro has some pretty high negatives.

Isn't John Edward's window of opportunity to impact this race closing? If Obama edges closer to the nomination this month, he'll need Edwards' endorsement less-and-less, I'd assume. By contrast, HRC will be desperate for it up through Tx. and Ohio. So is Edwards waiting too long to endorse?

it tastes like soap to some due to genetic predisposition

Pozole showing strong numbers

paprika will have it's say it Texas.

More resignations in Hillaryland: The Washington Post reports that Mike Henry, Hillary's deputy campaign manager and a figure who was brought in by outgoing campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle, has also resigned.

MSNBC calls VA for McCain.

oh boo

hrc = dun

is kind of too bad. take away the bill + marc-rich-pardoning sleaze and the fact that people really hate her for essentially no reason, i think she'd have been a good prez

just tell me when i can bust open this champaign cuz Obama finally topped Hilz delegates en total.

Don't count HRC out yet.

(Also see SurveyUSA on Ohio: Clinton 56%, Obama 39%.)
