| He will win more of the popular vote and more delegates, no matter what happens in Indiana. Still too close to call there. She will probably win, but it may not be a "clobbering".....  | |

| Celtic a judge ordered some Indiana polls I think in 2 counties to stay open later, so it may be awhile for any prediction. with 11% in Obama in 30 percentage points ahead of Clinton in N Carolina | |

| Last Friday (May 2), Hillary said, “This primary election on Tuesday is a game changer. This is going to make a huge difference in what happens going forward. The entire country – probably even a lot of the world is looking to see what North Carolina decides.” (abc news)
I wonder if tomorrow it will still be a game changer or if the game will change ??  ABC News | |

| Since this is college confidential, I have an honest question about, um college. According to exit polling from the past few races and even today's, HRC 'clobbers' <word of the day  > Obama in the working class, non-college grad demographic. Even though she is Wellesley/Yale grad, 109 mil personal wealth, has 2 mansions, how does she square that with voters?

| Obama is now locked in to be the Democratic nominee, Hillary' rode is very tough. A hisorical night. 
Who would have imagined 5 years ago that a color person would lead to as a candidate for the presidency. Sweet part is that nomination come from south.
Let us not fight among our selves and respect the voters decision. | |

| It's over. But it was over weeks ago. Only the media needed something to write about.
Now, it's just a question of how much damage she can inflict on herself. | |

| Celtic,
Maybe it squares with the working class voters because they remember a better economy under Clinton. They also may understand that to beat the Republicans she needs a boat load of money. | |

| America again proves that a person's color is immaterial. I can not imagine in any other country in the world, that a minority candidate could be allowed to lead the country. Even progressive so called Europe does not allow this to happen. We should be grateful that we live in USA. It is so wonderful to live in this historical time. | |

| Yes, but plenty of women have been "allowed" to lead countries. Think Margaret Thatcher for one.
If the United States is prepared to put an African American in the White house remains to be seen. It seems that plenty of good ol' liberals are determined to deprive the country of that possibility. Fwiw, it may be easier to vote a minority into the White House from the Republican Party. Who knows, McCain might all surprise us. | |

| Xiggi :
If voters elect MCCain over Obama then it will be voters wish. At least we are not fighting war over who leads the country. But my guess is that beacuse of economy, many young generation will support Democrat over Republican. Time will only tell. But this is a historical night. I hope Hillary supporters willnow support Obama against McCain. | |

teriwitt, I'm not sure that I've made myself clear. I was not trying to pull the wool over your eyes. I meant everything I wrote in my post.
| Except if you were reading paragraphs out of order (like me) and got to the NOT part too soon, I really thought you were looking forward to the presidential election. Once I reread it after my first response, I caught it. | |
