looking at the map this way just reaffirms that the remaining map looks better for Obama.  I think there is a very good chance that the only green state Clinton will win is Texas.  Obama already is showing a major cash advantage and I think his momentum in February is going to build him up enough to win Ohio despite our Governor's endorsement.

I think Hillary wins Ohio, but it might be close.

I can't envision that happening. I'm sure Spade or Al would be able to elaborate upon the "why" exactly.

I did before and got roundly ignored and/or contradicted.  No need to do it again.  As Al quite aptly pointed out, look at southern Illinois and northern NY (industrials) for Northern, especially Northeast Ohio.  And for SE Ohio, think of Kentucky/West Virginia.

However, if Ohio is bad, PA is worse.  Maybe Phil and Super can help you there with why.  PA-13 may actually be relevant here.

Texas is his best shot because of the no party registration, IMHO.  Though others may disagree, and it won't be easy.  Oh, I forget to mention earlier that Texas has the highest black population out of the three states - that's another reason.

I wonder if Texas has a bunch of black displaced Katrina victims...

southern illinois went for Obama, by the way.  not sure that means much though... neither would northern NY though.  I think Obama will do well in KY.  Why wouldn't he?

Because there's very few blacks and as for the whites, well look at rural Tennessee.

Yes, killing each other as we speak...  Or going back to kill each other in New Orleans.

Besides, if the blacks haven't registered now, they're never going to register.  The registration deadline for the March primaries was February 4.

Southern Illinois - Obama is in green, Clinton is in red.



See all those red counties down south - that's primarily what I'm referring to.

As for KY - Al, care to enlighten?  I feel like I'm repeating myself here.
