I think Alcon's point is that the same-day voting numbers are better for Obama than the absentees.  How much better is, of course, anyone's guess.

How does Hillary survive a month in which she may win only one more primary? She'll almost surely be down in delegates going into old Super Tuesday. I hope the folks on this forum who think Hillary is a lock will consider this point.

Obama needs to actually VISIT Ohio and Texas...unlike in California when he sent Oprah, Michelle, Ted, and John Kerry in for him all the time.

He's not a silly protectionist (unlike Hillary Clinton 2.0), so he won't engage in that kind of class warfare.

Looks like the exit polls were wrong in New Mexico, too. Although it is still early.

Good point. Penn wants weekly debates. Obama did perform well in the last debate, so that might not be a great strategy.That shows that Clinton is running as the underdog..

I'm not really convinced anyone won that debate, frankly.

Verily, my point was that Obama is improving significantly between absentee results and final results in most counties.

San Luis Obispo County just did the same thing, and flipped to Obama.

MSNBC are also the ones predicting the 841O-837C delegate split.

I saw. Maybe things aren't quite as bad as early results make them appear. If California narrows to 13% (as Sam suggests), I could buy the 841-837 split.

Are the exit polls horrendously wrong in New Mexico again?

Let's see what happens when the big boys (San Bernadino/San Diego/San Francisco/Los Angeles) start spewing forth before making too many predictions, IMHO.  Wink

I said that earlier. Nothing's for certain with only 15% in (maybe only early voting? I don't know how much of that happens in NM), but I doubt Obama wins NM at this point.

The Clintons did support it and pass it. If she's going to cite "35 years of experience", she has to take credit for it all.

(I actually think NAFTA is just fine, but most people don't.)
