Charles, I hate to disagree but Barack did win the Hamas vote.

Watch for the media elites and Obamaniacs demanding she exit the race... how dare she stay in when WV shows Obama's failings to capture the hearts and minds of millions of Democrats.

They'll parrot the fact that Hillary captured like 90%+ of the white vote, all while ignoring that Obama runs those kinds of numbers up in the African American community without any similar charges of racist identity politics by those voters against Hillary.

Hillary has exposed Obama's problems - he can't even get a majority of votes in certain demographics that are key to winning any national election. That's why she's staying in (well, that and the ongoing Wright mess along with any other issues that might creep up pre-Denver).

Heck, it could turn the other way, as Obama currently leads in popular vote, but Hillary gets the supers to go to her side based on the results in WV and the remaining states. Either way, you've got the party getting cleaved in two because they are seriously flawed candidates and the process by which the primaries operates created the conditions. Watch the DNC to "fix" the problem with adjustments to how they conduct primaries going forward.

re: #42 Syrah

This a real electoral map problem for Obama. Besides the West Virginia jinx, he can't historically or mathematically win the general election without winning at least one southern (aka Bible Belt) State. Ask Kerry about that.

/name the southern State Obama has a chance in hell of winning

Obama has sent big money to the superdelegates, almost $700,000 or more than 3.5 times what Hillary gave to the superdelegates. Also, Obama rakes in lots of money, and lots more where that came from, so the superdelegates know that if they support Obama, they stand to get a lot more money.

The difference in pledged delegates is only about 1/4 of the number of superdelegates, so the superdelegates have control of the nomination.

And the fix is in, so even though Hillary is likely to win the popular vote in the Dem contests overall, the superdelegates are going to go where the money is: Obama. The fix is in.

That's why you see Obama and Clinton jockeying for supers. They know that every vote can change hands between now and the convention - and it already has seen some swaps.

Correct, but it's not right to say "selected, not elected", because something like 2/3 of the delegates are selected in primaries and caucuses. There's an element of selection. How important the supers are depends on how close the primaries/caucuses are. They're important this year, but haven't been for several cycles.

For some reason, people have this tendency to paint Bill Clinton's Presidency in a rosy light...

re: #29 laZardo

Quick historical refresher...what happened in '68 again?

After Gene McCarthy's strong showing against LBJ in the early primaries, LBJ dropped out, announcing on national TV that he would not to seek the nomination. RFK entered the race and beat McCarthy in the definitive California primary only to be gunned down that night by a Pali terrorist named Sirhan Sirhan. The convention in Chicago was rigged to nominate LBJ's Veep Hubert Horatio Humphrey, who refused to challenge LBJ's position supporting the Viet Nam war. Virtually, every voter in the Dem primaries was disenfranchised. Many radical groups as well as thousands of young people and activists camped out by the lake in Chicago. When Mayor Daly's police attempted to clear them from the park and the streets outside of the convention, there was a sizable riot on two consecutive nights. Interestingly, John Belushi was at the head of one of the rows of protesters, and threw a cannister of tear gas back at the police. The police beat hundreds of protesters with clubs, and in the convention Daly was villified by the McCarthy supporters. It was a very ugly seen ending in the nomination of HHH, with Edmund Muskie as the VP nominee. The convention put the Dem campaign on a real downslope. Humphrey rallied late in the campaign and lost to Nixon in a squeaker. Had Humphrey disavowed the LBJ Viet Nam strategy at any time during the campaign he would likely have won. Today's crazy Dem nomination process is in great part a result of the 1968 election.

Moderate to conservative Democrats have recently won statewide races. I believe Obama won the VA primary w/ a total of 64% of the vote.

Langley really disrupts that theory. Well-educated? You make the call.

I haven't visited CNN since they posted a terrorist propaganda video as "news". I'll have to see the numbers elsewhere.

If Hillary does managed to come back and convince the convention to NObama, she will have a hell of a lot of momentum, even without much of the black voters turning out, which could really hurt her in Illinois and Pennsylvania.

34% of Obama supporters say that race doesn't matter, but 94% of that portion of the electorate identified by the mainstream media as black is voting for Obama.

What portion of the electorate identified by the msm as white is voting for Hillary?

The problem with simplistic propaganda is that it's just stupid.

It probably is a bit over blown but since the Dems still think the world is as it was in 1968, the new generation of Dems (and nut-job lefties) will want to have a "1968" moment. That should be a concern.

Of course if the police crack down, you know who will get blamed, right?

No: 77%

Of the 22% who said yes- 89% went for Clinton. OK- but they already admitted race was a factor, and they are a minority.

Of the 77%- 59% went to Clinton.

There was also a breakdown of the same question but posed in terms of Gender- should we read too much into that as well?

Absolutely! Lots of things could happen. But if I were an opponent of Obama, I don't think I would be spending my time on a blog writing comments about whom he might or might not have met with or worrying out which goofballs are putting up blogs on his web site.

More 1.5 million people have contributed several hundred million dollars to his campaign. More than 17 million people have voted for him, and something like that number have voted for Sen. Clinton. Most of them will vote for Obama in the fall. About 3 million new voters have registered as Democrats during the primary season. Last weekend, Obama launched a nationwide voter registration campaign that will help to boost turnout in the fall for him and other Democrats. (The new registrants can, of course, vote for anyone, but Obama will, in most cases, have their names and contact info so they can be targeted in fall GOTV campaigns.)

In a poll released today, 81% of the population said they think the country is on the wrong track. Republicans have lost, by substantial margins, special elections in three House districts that had been strongly Republican for many years.

But if you want to keep worrying about which magazine cover Obama's face is on, who he's had lunch with lately, or what kind of lapel pin he is wearing, go right ahead.

Any other ideas as to how to contact Mark Salter directly? I'm serious, here. And stumped. I've done the internet search and can't find a viable address, except the headquarters in Arlington.
