Remember when Clinton was going to make this "close."

LOLOLOL

Remember when some people argued he might get to 38-40% here because of U of Oklahoma and Oklahoma St?

No.


It's entirely possible that he could actually. That's not the surprising part here. The surprising part is that McCain is only at 52%. I expect by election day that he'll be over 60% but Obama getting 38% is hardly unreasonable.

Need more polls to get a trend. Remember that in 2004 there were also 2 polls that showed Kerry trailing by just 12%. Anyway, I could see Obama getting 35-38% in OK.

There is no chance that Barack Obama will get more than 38% of the vote in Oklahoma this Election. If Obama does manage to get more than 38%, there is something wrong with the Oklahoma electorate. It goes against the electoral grain of wood in Oklahoma, if a liberal African-American Senator running for President of the United States manages to get more than 38%.

Or its just a great year for the Democrats as I think it will be.



Well, 35-38% .. it seemed to me like people thought he could do well in Oklahoma for a Democrat in this thread. I guess your memory is just pretty bad.

I agree with James. It's clear that Oklahoma would be a swing state in this election if the Democrats were to nominate Hillary. That state and a few others. I could see this as a plausible map if they had been smart enough to nominate her:



She would've already had the election won, James!
