10 in a row. Impressive, indeed. BTW, Clinton had a 25 point polling lead 2 months ago in that state.

I stand corrected. According to the AP, it was the 9th straight win. Obama Wins Wisconsin, 9th Straight (02-19) 18:24 PST WASHINGTON, (AP) -- Barack Obama has won the Wisconsin primary, his ninth straight triumph over a fading Hillary Rodham Clinton in their epic struggle for the Democratic presidential nomination. The Associated Press made its call Tuesday night based on surveys of voters as they left the polls. www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi? f=/n/a/2008/02/19/politics/p002349S31.DTL&type=politics&tsp=1
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Obummer wins, he loses, McCain wins. We lose either way.
Obama will slaughter McInsane in the general election. The dem turnout in this primary season has shattered all records and they are motivated to purge DC of the war-mongering neocons and the old clinton machine.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Never happen.
Who's More Electable: Clinton or Obama? 'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Clinton going away. I could have said by a scrawny neck.
OMG!!! McFart did his 'vision' speech tonite. He said 'I know who I am', which is probably not exactly true or not true most of the time. Then, Hillory shows up on the tube. She says "go to my web site and give me some of your money". LOL
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
Gov Rendell of Pa put it very blunt and he is NY Jew. White people are not willing to vote for a black president.
Republicans overwhelmingly voted for more war.
Then, Hillory shows up on the tube. She says "go to my web site and give me some of your money". LOL I saw it all too! Good synopsis. Now Obama is telling Texans to vote early.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' In general, people that vote in primaries are not a cross section of voters, either dem or pub.
You know I already listed all the predominately white states that Obama won. So, I must disagree with Rendell, based on the facts. A lot of young people are motivated to turn out and vote. And they do not share the same dislikes of Rendell.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Obama, like Ron Paul, has a huge grassroots support. Lots of first time voters.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Obummer/McCain, McCain and war win. Obummer wins, we lose also.
I'm looking for less war, my expectations are not high.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Robin if you check the numbers in DC you will see how those figures are skewed.
It's funny how the Hillory now says 'forget change, I got the experience' but, back in 1992, she and Billy were saying 'elect us because America needs change, forget the experience'. LOL - Obamer says, the problem in America is not the lack of good ideas but Washington becoming the place where ideas go to die. I remember Gary Hart's campaign, back in 1984, I think. He was running the campaign of 'new ideas'. His shtick was his picture on the TV screen set on top on what the media were all calling 'a high-tech grid' which was a black background with thin blue lines, intersecting at angles that were not 'right'. So he was the man of 'new ideas'.
Antiparty - find out why, think about 'how'
LOL - Obamer says, the problem in America is not the lack of good ideas but Washington becoming the place where ideas go to die. That's good. And you have a good memory. ;)

Why do you care about the primary results in DC?
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' robin... Check the votes for Obummer and Hillary totals and the ones for McCain...
I dont...I am trying to show you how the numbers are skewed...Who do think was out voting on a bad day in DC????
I think the enthusiasm for Obama explains the turnout. However, this is a mystery: Mystery: NY Results Say Obama Got Zero Votes In 80 Districts
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' He's giving an uplifting speech with details.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Wisconsin Exit Polls: White men (59-38) Won or tied voters of all income levels 'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' In DC a population of over 600,000 people, McCain gets less than 4000 votes. We have race and gender at work here and it is skewing the numbers. This is a classic example. white men are staying home. Saying who won among white, black or whatever is guess work. Votes totaled are facts.
They're voting for Obama over Hillary. BTW, DC is predominately Black. White persons, percent, 2006 (a) 38.4% (D.C.) 80.1% (nation) Black persons, percent, 2006 (a) 56.5% 12.8%
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' That is what I was saying. The blacks turned out en masse for Obummer, women turned for Hillary and on a bad weather day the white men stayed home. Therefore the figures are skewed.
The weather was bad in WI and white men voted for him rather than Hillary.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Wisconsin Republican Primary 19-Feb-08 Delegates: 40 County Results --- 24% Reporting 1 McCain 50,444 54% 2 Huckabee 34,670 37% 3 Ron Paul 4,141 4% 4 Romney 1,758 2% 5 Thompson 600 1% 6 Giulliani 268 1% 7 Hunter 206 0% Wisconsin Democratic Primary 19-Feb-08 Delegates: 87 County Results --- 29% Reporting 1 Obama 161,953 56% 2 Clinton 125,289 43% 3 Edwards 1,820 1% 4 Kucinich 641 0% 5 Richardson 188 0% 6 Joe Biden 160 0% 7 Richardson 140 0% 8 Chris Dodd 126 0% 9 Mike Gravel 115 0%
That is via exit polls and always suspicious. Lets say it is true, were they voting for Obummer or against Hillary???? Recall I said we have a gender and race thing skewing the numbers.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Come March, in Pa Obama will most likely carry Pittsburg and Philly, Clinton the rest of the state. McCain will carry all on the oub side.
Certainly a portion are against Hillary. But the raw #s voting for Democrats is far higher than for GOP in every primary. 'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Very likely.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' The votes are not polled, they are facts.
Black vote robin, the black vote.
True, but there's no other way to know who is a young woman and who is an old man.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Barack Obama was the overwhelming favorite among Virginians. More people voted for Obama than for all Republican candidates combined. 'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' The votes speak for themselves. Less than 5000 voters turned out in DC for the pubs, Why? Because all candidates are men and all candidates are white. Rendell is correct.

In national head-to-head polls taken in February, McCain has a slight lead over Clinton, but it’s not statistically significant, meaning that the apparent difference can’t be distinguished from random variation. The two are essentially even. Obama, on the other hand, is somewhat favored over McCain. In the same February polls, he outperforms McCain by about 5 percentage points on average—a margin that is statistically significant.

Illinois Sen. Barack Obama pulled support from virtually all sectors of the voting public Tuesday on his way to defeating rival Sen. Hillary Clinton in the Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., Democratic primaries, according to CNN exit polling.

there were many more people voting Democrat than Republican. Could it be that many Republicans and independents are so anti-Clinton that they have turned out in numbers just to ensure she is not on the ticket?
