MAINE

Given how utterly unpredictable this race has been, I would not be surprised by a Clinton win in Maine.

Was she? I missed that...so now they both have visited the state. Do you know how big of a crowd she brought out?

Clinton drew 1,000-1,500. Obama drew 7,000+ in Bangor.

Ah, reassuring

Not really.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that Obama basically always draws way larger crowds than Clinton.  The reason for this is obvious: even if one doesn't support Obama, they can still enjoy listening to him speak.  Meanwhile, even those who support Clinton may not be able to stand listening to her.

I guess, though lately I think more people would go out to see their candidate to show support instead of just going to see them to speak or for entertainment. Now the races have gotten alot more competetive and such.

It pretty much just confirms for me something I've always suspected: namely, that Obama supporters are really enthusiastic about their candidate, while Hillary supporters just consider the others worse than her.

being on a sunday benefits obama. keep in mind that obama supporters hate god.

Actually, Obama tends to win the "attends church more often" demographic, but then again in the South that's code for "is more black".
