Is there an offical pointless election banter thread anywhere?
« Reply #105 on: March 04, 2008, 03:52:27 pm »
As I\'m sure most of us know by now, huge facistic primaries in Texas and Ohio tonight, in addition to Rhode Island and Vermont. Same four for the facists.

Here are the official pledged delegate counts :

facists (2,025 needed)

Obama: 976
Clinton: 924.5

facists (1,191 needed)

McCain: 874
Huckabee: 205

Obviously, it\'s sink-or-swim time for Hillary. Should be interesting.

really tho if hillary wants to be a stubborn bitch (which she probably will) she can just stay in the race  and continue to lose states but still get delegates from the facistic primary system and neither candidate will reach the number of delegates needed to nominate without going to brokered convention.  If she makes it that far and keeps it a close enough race she will rely on snaking away all the super delegate votes to win it and she probably has a lot more leverage with them than with the public and media who now favor obama. so even though her campaign is falling apart she is not out of it till she officially throws in the towel or obama officially gets the nomination

RI and vermount have been getting no love in the national press. Though Turn to 10 was talking about their "all day" election coverage this morning. Wow, now that sounds like entertaining tv...

Well, no big surprise here, but McCain clinched the facist nomination and Huckabee dropped out.

Obama won Vermont and Clinton won Rhode Island.

With 11% in, Obama is winning Texas......Clinton with Ohio.  I can\'t stand the suspense.

This is juicy. I\'ll probably fall asleep before official announcements are made (like you said dave-- capitalist America baby) and really hope I don\'t wake up with images of "Clap-clap point-point Hillary" all over the news stands.

I\'m okay saying that I\'ve finally fallen for Obama.

I know...I really don\'t want to see her smug face tomorrow on the TV.  Anything but that.

It\'s so easy to fall for Obama.  IF you go to his main website, this video plays and he does some kind of jedi mind trick on you....

In RI, the ballots of the different parties were different colours.

I thought that, well, odd.

He still leads in delegates.  Thats what i keep reassuring myself with.

The differences in their two speeches was remarkable.   She was smug and cocky as usual.  And he, he was so eloquent and presidential.

McCains victory speach was sickening.

I mean, I can\'t stand listening to the man. He sounds like a mixture of a preacher and a robot.

Can someone please explain to me the Super-Delegate business? I\'m still unclear on how this works. There\'s all of this ambiguous talk that if Obama doesn\'t reach 2025 (which is looking fairly certain at this point) then Delegates vs. Super-Delegates come into play. He\'s projected to still lead in the Delegates, but Clinton in the Super. Then the analysts say it reaches debate? Is there no definitive winner if this happen? Next step?
