RI to Hillary and my sweet 82 year Aunt voted for Barack.
Oh yes, and she's catholic and white.
The turnout by gender shows an amazing gap so Hillary should be having her best night yet.
but I doubt she narrows the delegate gap by more than a handfull
First son figured out that somehow the aspect ratio on my display screen got changed and that made all the fonts go out of wack. Now i have to set them all back to the original.
Well Obama isn't exactly a dynasty.
The streak is ENDED.
This is pre-mature, but if Clinton Wins Ohio by 60-40, I for one will be extremely suspicious, since this is the magic margin that she supposedly needs to amass to catch up. The polls have been much closer than that. We all know Ohio's reputation.
Unfortunately for the campaign, the scenario involves her winning by 60 in ALL the rest of the states.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you count Florida and Michigan
No results from Cleveland or cinci are yet in the Ohio results
projections don't end a streak, final results do, so Obama can add one more for the record books if Vermont out hustles Rhode Island
Told 'ya those over 65 yrs. of age white (Catholic) women w/a high school education aren't too bright.
They aren't critical thinkers, by a long stretch.
Closet racists.
Anyone who couldn't see thru those lame-assed 3:00 a.m. ads is freakin' stupid.
Ala Tom Ridge, duct-taping & plastic sheeting the inside of your home.
VT's delegate counts are strong for Obama, as were ME's.
Both states are purple, but the MSM always f^cks that up, too.
They count more, re: weighted.
Ours put him over the top in delegate totals (overall); and that's worth a lot.
Clinton fired her campaign mgr. that night!
Worth psychological clout, too.
63%-70% is a decent haul, Wonder Bread ® VT!
note
In most delegate counts Florida and Michigan are counted for Hillary, and the only way they will be counted is if she goes ahead without them so can set convention rules
she has to win 75% of the delegates after tonight to write her own rules
Ed Rendell is just so smarmy to me.
A snapshot of a caucus in TX:
Antonio Caucus - Bexar 3125 (3+ / 0-)
Just getting underway. Obama outnumbers Clinton about 4 to 1
Fox - Aren't you a Republican? Are you an Obamacan? We had several at our caucus in WA and they were the most enthusiastic.
Whoops -
here's the caucus:
Antonio Caucus - Bexar 3125 (3+ / 0-)
Just getting underway. Obama outnumbers Clinton about 4 to 1
more caucus:
Per burntorangereport.com's breakdown (0 / 0)
Obama 2:1 in Austin with 8 delegates (most of any senate district). Also has comfortable leads in several in the Houston/Galveston region and nearly a 4:1 lead in one North Texas district.
Sorry if I'm driving ya'all nuts - this is my passion. My best girlfriend just called and asked how the return watching was going. Yup, she knows me. My sister called from her cell on the way home from Costco asking how our guy did. LOL
Hello all
I am disappointed with the big little (RI)
but, I guess 56-42 ain't too bad
just as 53-46 Texas for Obama isn't too bad for for Hillary
then you got OH 59HC-39BO, which is a major duomo disOpointment.
I am a pro choice conservative that can not tolerate the thoght of 4 years of the Clintons back in the spot light. He is the only thing in the way of that horror show
Paine - obama's strongholds aren't even factored in with Ohio yet. He'll lose OH but not by a huge margin methinks.

Saw you like Scarborough. I kinda do too, but I just know that he is a walkin' talkin' Rethug talking point / repeat, repeat / monopolize the air-time ...very effective shill. Yuck, I hate and like the guy.
Is it like that for you?
Yes, sometimes Scarborough makes sense but this week he's trying to make it a horse race. I also think he really does like Obama. I bet his teenagers do too.
TX is narrowing - please let it be that Austin/Houston/Dallas aren't in yet. Plus, the caucuses are in Obama's favor. Nail biting time. Or better yet - I'm having a beer.
Here for just a minute...temps dropping with rain...probably another all-niter so going for a cat nap...
Phil...the next time you're passing thru this area...please be sure to give me a jingle (April/early May excellent for walleyes).
I'm proud of me fellow free thinking Vermonters...only wish the rest of the country would follow suit. Watching the polls and hoping for that 64% but don't think it'll happen. Still too many racists lurking about (I work with a few). I'm also dreading that Hillary will drag the party down in her pursuit of the oval office (anything to win mentality). Tonight I talked to the one responsible for all the Hillary signs in our area. Something wasn't right...I felt very uneasy talking with this fellow Democrat...like I was the enemy.
Wish I could stay up for the results but harder to burn the candle on both ends nowadays days
This guy's funny

It's A-holes and Criminals night on the cable news networks. Ken Blackwell on MSNBC. Bill Bennett on CNN. Karl Rove on FOX News. I'm expecting to flip over to Headline News and see a panel including the Hamburglar, OJ Simpson and Nurse Ratched."

Cool, mary vb. I guess I did see you guys talking about the rural and urban vote totals coming in later.
Fox, I hope you get the chance to experience the Constitutional Law POTUS in Obama. I hope ... yup, I hope for better days ahead. I have found the Bush years a horror show, if your interested.

Edwards Will Endorse Obama Tomorrow
http://www.openleft.com/showDiary.do;jsessionid=A5B94AD5549E467189F0DE0AEDCA7A40?diaryId=4339
Geez, I'm usually in Phil's segment of the blog...I don't get it? Well, I did have computer problems earlier...NSA?
sm wrote,
Edwards Will Endorse Obama TomorrowWell, this is the proper time to do that IMHO. He's got good timing.
All that matters is actual delegate tallies, folks.
Noses to the ground.
Close margins are fine for Obama--it's those delegates that matter.
He still racks 'em up even w/a potential 15 pt. spread.
TX is an hr. behind, and hrs. have been extended, due to turnout (same w/OH).
Austin is the most librul city in TX--not an indicator of anything.
"Bigger" states aren't always worth more, folks.
The Latino delegate tallies aren't as "weighted," due to low proportional '06 turnouts.
How many actually show up @caucus *does* matter (and for whom).
RI wasn't expected to trend Obama, but his spread isn't bad at all.

I continue to really love Vermont. Doesn't 60% give Obama a 10-5 delegate split?
My little bro just told me that Rush and Glen Beck
are telling Repugs to vote as Dems for Hillary
Edwards should've endorsed immediately after Big Dog started NAFTA swiftboating.
Two days ago.
He wasn't looking at the scenery in Canada.
OH's delegate count won't be in until tomorrow morning, folks.
Chill.
Supertramp - Goodbye Stranger http://hypem.com/artist/supertramp
PA - 9-6 for Obama in VT. If he gets to 64% of the vote - then he gets a 10-5 split.
64% in VT would hold more delegate clout--votes aren't tallied as yet.
TX won't tally until morning.
Nor will OH.
Chill out, people.
Use those brains. The ONLY thing that matters is delegate count.
Elections are *pragmatic*.
Stop "emoting."
Edwards and a slew of others tomorrow for Obama. I betcha Elizabeth and John were fairly outraged over Clinton's tactics this week including her saying that McCain is a better choice (close to it) than Obama.
Apparently Republicans are crossing over to vote Dem in record numbers in Ohio.
If they are following Rush's advice and trying to administer CPR to Hillary, they need to think really hard.
I know that 4-8 years of HRC 'n' Bill would be any Republican's worst nightmare. If they think that she can't beat McCain, they are foolish indeed.
Much as I don't want HRC to be our nominee, I would laugh myself silly if she was, and won, and the GOP had to endure her. It would almost make it palatable for me to endure her.

Limbaugh's in for a very interesting life review. Glad I won't have to be there.
mary vb
I believe you are correct. Ohio will get much closer, Cleveland, Cinncinati and Dayton have not reported. Exit polls suggest that Clinton wins both 3%-6% lead.
Is anyone on the boob-tube talking about
how the vote may be being bastardized by ditto-heads?
NBC projects the junior Senator for NY as winner in OHIO.
Obama strongholds still haven't come in yet in TX. I think he'll win TX per the burnt orange report plus the caucuses.
If Hill won Ohio on the strength of the Limbaugh faction, her campaign will be aware of this, trust me.
That would be a win that was really a loss.
-- volney
It must be remembered that if Hillary lives on after today, what it really means is that she'll have the opportunity to throw more mud at Obama and help McCain win in November -- and thereby keep her family and its adherants at the top of the Democratic Party.
A miraculous comeback is too much for her to realistically hope for, but fatally wounding Obama isn't.
most of the dittoheads are ars holds that can't even take their meds right. don't worry bought them. we are ok.
and edwards will endorse tomorrow? wtf ? who cares now? just go home.
Supertramp - Crime Of The Century Lyrics
Now they're planning the crime of the century
Well what will it be?
Read all about their schemes and adventuring
It's well worth a fee
So roll up and see
And they rape the universe
How they've gone from bad to worse
Who are these men of lust, greed, and glory?
Rip off the masks and let's see.
But that's no right - oh no, what's the story?
There's you and there's me
That can't be right

It won't matter.

Weird data from Texas. Many counties only show early voting (Travis and Harris).
