It's here, Wisconsin and Hawaii. Time for Obama to hopefully put one more nail in Hillary's coffin.

Wisconsin could be close, but I have confidence Obama will prevail.

Either way, I think the results will be close. A win for Obama would be big though, as this is a solid "Hillary" state that she should win. Of course, she all but gave up on everything but Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania after Super Tuesday though.

Also, McCain wins Wisconsin, so says CNN.

That's a relief, all in all. Hopefully the projection holds up.


55-44, Obama leading, with 7% in.

Sister: Who did you vote for?

Me: Obama.

Sister: *gasp*

Me: If it's any consolation, Hillary was leading Obama in the last poll.

You know, this tendency of Hillary to pretend that she didn't just lose a state is getting on my last nerve. I already didn't like her, but her poor statesmanship (statespersonship?) only further convinces me that she'd make a pretty crappy president.

In the primaries: GO OBAMA!

Michelle Obama is getting more of the spotlight lately, and I'm glad for that. She's a dynamic person in her own right, and I'd much rather vote for her than for Clinton, and maybe over Obama himself.

Seriously, Brian. Hillary just comes off as annoyingly deluded person. And why on earth are people playing along? Who do they think they're kidding?! If you're looking for 4 more years of ignoring the actual situations and refusing to change anything but just "powering through", looks like you should vote Hillary happy

I honestly was not anti-Hillary Clinton when this campaign started. At this point, I'm very anti-Clinton, and it's been largely because of the divisive campaigning strategies on her part that basically echo the divide and conquer strategies used by the GOP over the years. It's clearly being out of touch with the state of politics today, and being unaware of how they're perceived by a great many Americans today.

We need to move beyond divide and conquer politics and campaigning. The Clintons have become the embodiment of what they ran against in 1992.

Agreed, KW. I was just thinking about this earlier today. I remember fairly early on, stating, telling someone that if Obama wasn't running, I'd love to vote Hillary. I'd never dream of saying that now.

Not only is Hillary and her campaign delusional in ignoring the past 9 results of the primaries/cauces, but Bill and a campaign official last week stated that Obama is only winning the "unimportant" states. Not only is this categorically untrue (there are no unimportant states), but it is campaign suicide for a general election in which Clinton is the nominee. I am sure the Republicans won't hammer these statements in electorally "important" battleground states like Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota and the like. I am sure that these states will love their characterization as "unimportant".
