 Age: 37 Gender: Female Posts: 22225 | March 4th, 2008 at 11:45pm It looks like she has Ohio. She's ahead by 2% in Texas, but a lot of the votes that are left to be counted are from the urban areas where Obama is ahead. So he has a chance of getting Texas. Even if he doesn't, he still has more delegates. And Clinton still has plenty of opportunities to fall on her face.  |

She says they'll found out stuff about him. She didn't say what kind if "stuff" and I didn't ask. I don't think the Republicans have a chance. I think everyone is sick of them. You never know. Both parties have a chance. McCain is looking strong right now. And now he has a bunch of free time to work on his campaign against the democrats. While Obama and Clinton still have to focus their efforts on getting ahead of each other. But I think, and I hope, that whoever the democratic nominee ends up being, that they'll come out ahead of McCain. I think we need a change from Bush. A big change.
I just don't understand why anyone would be against universal health care. And I don't understand how anyone can support someone who wants to not only stay in Iraq, but send more troops over! |

 Age: - Gender: Female Posts: 5246 | March 5th, 2008 at 02:00am Texas - 228
Ohio - 161
Rhode Island - 32
Vermont - 23
So does anyone understand the Texas caucus and primary? I'm assuming Clinton won the primary because the caucus is still being counted and Obama is winning. But how are the delegates split? 50/50 for caucus and primary and then divide by percent?
I'm more into all or none states, more common for Republicans though, less math =) |

Yeah, I live in PA and I have yet to vote. I was going to vote Republican, but since McCain already won, I might not. Someone told me to vote strategically. You know vote for Hilary of something. Even though she won't win the candidacy if you she did, she might not have a good chance against McCain. So, I don't know who I'm voting for.
Does that make sense? |

I'm more into all or none states, more common for Republicans though, less math =) I think they're split: 2/3 to the winner of the primary and 1/3 to the winner of the caucus. |

No, Elmo, I mean, I knew he was going to drop out, considering McCain was getting all the media attention that focused on the Republicans, at least from what I've been reading.  |
