    We're not talking about Wyoming, SC and whatnot. I disagree about Neveda and I'd say Iowa, New Mexico, Missouri, Virginia, Colorado are all going to be more in play with Obama than they would with Clinton.

    Perhaps not. I disagree with the "no way" part, but he is unlikely to win them. Still, he'll put them semi-in play, plus he'll be much better for down-ticket races. The Legislature and governorships are almost as important as the White House, and Obama would do much better than her for those races in just about every state.

    Not to mention he'd make McCain spend more money and effort in states a Republican normally wouldn't have to.

    If Obama wins the nomination, wouldn't there be a chance of a massive mobilization of the significant number of non-registered black voters in Mississippi and Alabama, with the chance of history as a big motivator? That could put two states in play that Hillary would not have a prayer in.

    Our voting site was unusually inactive. Of course, 11:30 a.m. isn't really a prime time, but you'd still expect to have the early lunch crowd going through. There were six (6) people in or around the voting booths.

    Oh, yes ... I'm picking Hillary by a scant 1%, which should be a huge disappointment for her.

    Hillary +10%. Just enough to keep dragging this sucker out.

    Hillary by six and less than 10 delegates.

    Pssssst ....

    $4 gas, $120 oil, rising unemployment, foreclosures, and an uppity Al-Sadr.

    If that keeps up, a lot of red states will be in play no matter which candidate gets the nom.

    The fine citizens of Philadelphia will boo whoever wins.

    And who loses as well.
