and New York is the only state she clearly won more delegates. the rest are fairly close...all of Obama's are clear cut wins delegate wise.
its all gonna come down to super delegates...and they're all gonna see that Hillary doesn't stand a chance against McCain.

She beats him badly in Texas and he's going to lose a lot of his momentum.

I dont think she beats him badly, especially since he's dipping into her cash cow now (hispanics, women, -50K white voters)...but she should given that she's campaigning there 3 weeks before they vote. Either way, its still gonna come down to the super delegates...

He's going to get killed in Texas.I really believe hispanics down there won't vote for him.Why is Obama in Wisconsin?Same reason Clinton is in texas.Its all strategy, if you win most of the big states and have super delegates in your pocket you're probably going to win.The media really hyped up his victory streak because its a good story but her strategy still has the better chance of succeeding unless he keeps the momentum up.Look at the upcoming big states...Ohio she's favored by 17(141 delegates)...Texas she's up 12(193 delegates).His momentum will hit a wall at that point and he needs to win big in wisconsin to put her on the run and he's only up 4%.I think its definitly possible he can win at this point but don't count out the Clinton political machine.

Plouffe: She can't catch us
As we wrote last night, Obama has begun to make his own inevitablity case, and David Plouffe made it explicit on a conference call this morning, telling reporters that it's now "next to impossible" for Clinton to surpass what he says is a 136-person lead among pledged delegates.
"The only way she could do it is by winning most of the rest of the contests by 25 to 30 points," he said. "Even the most creative math really does not get her, ever, back to even in terms of pledged delegates."
"This is not about votes -- it's about delegates," Plouffe said.
The other half of this case, of course, is that superdelegates will and/or should follow the pledged delegates.
While I really, really, really do hope this is true, you have to remember that it is coming from Barack's campaign manager...still, I don't think he'd be touting this information if there wasn't some truth to it.

"I am in the solutions business. My opponent is in the promises business," the senator said in McAllen, Texas. "It's not the questions. It's the answers. And the answers get right to the heart of who is ready on Day One to be the president and commander-in-chief of the United States."---Hillary Clinton
Just horrible...

this is on the front page of the drudge report.It says Clinton advisors so it could be for real.
NYT THURSDAY: Clinton's advisers acknowledged it would be difficult to catch up in race for pledged delegates even if she succeeded in winning 3 states on which she is most pinning her hopes: Ohio and Texas in March and Pennsylvania in April. Dem party's rules would be decided obstacle in efforts to catch up to Obama before voting phase of nominating process ends later in spring... Developing...

I still find it hard to believe, I mean Barack just gained the lead yesterday...how could it be that "do or die" with just 3 states?

BIRD33 Wrote:her experience platform never made sense to me.She's been a senator for 3 years more than obama,big deal and being first lady means she picked out some china patterns and wall paper.I wouldnt elect Laura Bush as head librarian but she's supposedly gotten some foreign policy experience these last 8 years?She depended to much on the fact that her nomination was inevitable and when that feel through she had no fall back plan.
That's what made this so bitter sweet, even if Barack doesn't end up with the nomination...she still has no hope at all winning the general.
It would be so great seeing the almighty democratic power family going up in flames because of an inspirational senator getting voters the unconventional way.
