Re: Obama's Incredible Denial Concerning His Pastor

Look at the math Alex. Hillary has to win by 35 points in every single upcoming primary, a few of which are in the south, in order to overtake Obama in the pledged delegate vote. He is ahead by 700,000 in the Democratic primary vote. The Wright controversy won't fade entirely but his base is very large and they were just reenergized. At the worst he'll lose the remaining contests by 5-10 points. And he will STILL be ahead of Hillary.

The only way she can win is if the super delegates ignore the popular vote. I think the Democrats are more screwed in November if that happens. At least with Obama we know what the attack will be and there will be a way to get around it. Hillary would be fighting a two front war, one against the Republicans who hate her, the other against disollusioned Democrats.

I will also add that Obama only needs independents and moderates AGAINST Clinton, he will win the Democratic states and the south, which is super black, are up for grabs. In 2004, the electoin in Mississippi was actually very close. Could go blue. Missouri and Virginia as well. Floridians and Michiganians will get over it.

This is somebody been in Congress for 26 years, who put seven of the most powerful Washington lobbyists in charge of his campaign. And now he tells us that he’s the one who’s gonna take on the old boys' network,” he said. “In the McCain campaign that’s called a staff meeting!- Obama, 9/17/2008
