Yikes. Just heard on NPR: Exit polls show men going 2 to 1 for Obama in CA
and Hillary has 13% more women going for her in those exit polls.

7. That's what Ina Jaffe said
and she was asked if she was sure she got it right, and said yes. Of course, exit polls can certainly be wrong.

11. If that isn't statistically significant, I don't know what is
A margin like that is almost never wrong. I'm not a pollster but I've never seen a margin anywhere near that margin wrong.

12. I predicted it in 1972: Black male before white female for President.
It's 2008. I am still thinking it will go that way because there are so many barriers for women.

"Politics makes strange bedfellows" and we would have to RE-WRITE that expression, too.

21. Peace, StillRockin. It was just my opinion decades ago on my talk radio show.
Hillary is 60; I am almost 69. No worries. Obama is a wonderful orator with a wonderful presentation. Personally, I wish he had more experience. But if the Democrats convene and put him up for President, you can be sure I will vote for him in November.

Peace, love, and happiness,

Radio Lady

19. I know plenty, plenty of women who won't vote for Hillary. Many factors in play.
Too hard to read these tea leaves.
