Members Jess Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 I think it made a difference in Texas. McCain will carry Texas in the fall with about 57 percent of the vote unless something really strange happens. I don't know about other states. If it is open primaries, I think republicans probably voted for Clinton to keep the race going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 I know that garbage didn't make a bit of difference here. She lost Missouri, and I don't think McCain can win the state in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane70 Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 Rush just needs to shut up, he is full of hot air. Basically this democrat race isn't over, obama didn't make any head way and neither did hillary the numbers will still be the same obama leading her by over 130 delegates. The only thing that can help them right now is picking up superdelegates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jess Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 Yeah you are right. It would take a lot of people voting to even add up to 1 percent. I doubt it made much of a difference. Rush has become shamelessly racist. I can't believe any one thinks what he is doing now is funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 Did you hear that crap he said about a mayor recently, mistaking him for a shoeshine boy? Why hasn't anyone kicked this man's ass yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 I just can't believe that some Republican leader has not stood up and said that Rush's racist comments do not reflect the opinions of the Republican Party. I would think a lot more of McCain or President Bush if they would tell Rush in front of the world to STFU. That would be moral leadership.

Members Roman Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 Ok. What does Hillary do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jess Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 I think what she should do is recognize that for her, this election is over. In my opinion, she has emerged as a political force independent of Bill Clinton. It would seem that her best strategy would be determine how she can use her own standing now to emerge as a leader who can accomplish her own agenda. She is a very strong advocate for women, for health care and many other key areas. She also is a strong advocate of getting us out of the war. Regardless if she plays her hand right she can emerge as a key voice for the party and perhaps a statesman. She can use her new standing to really accomplish a lot in regard to her own priorities. In doing so, she certainly establishes herself as a leader and opens the door for another campaign. So I think now is a good time for her to figure out what she needs to do to make sure that she is a force into the future and that she is able to use that to accomplish her policy goals. I guess she can keep tilting at windmills, but this election is over for her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 Well who knows about Oregon at this point but the polls were wrong about NC since it seems like he's going to win by 14% and she's currently up by only 4% in IN. Even if she increases her lead when they're done counting, it's unlikely that she'll get anywhere near a double digit lead. I guess they were accurate or at least more accurate than whatever poll you were saying was more accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 And MSNBC just reported that the lead is now alittle over 19,000 votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricaKane70 Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 CNN is saying this race is too close to call, if obama ends up winning this like he did with Missouri when they were really close, this will be a big upset. ITA to everything Jess said, I think hillary should just call it a day, she's is not gonna win this election, obama lead is too big and I seriously doubt the SD's are gonna place their votes behind someone that is in second place. I won't be surprised tomorrow if obama gains alot more SD's. I'm still open to hillary being VP, but I don't think obama is open to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roman Posted May 7, 2008 Members Share Posted May 7, 2008 I don't know. The party may want that, and it maybe a concession from him, but I KNOW he doesn't want to do that. It truly depends. But.......he better not cut his throat for her. In order to save her legacy, she needs him...... He doesn't need her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
