Mississippi and Wyomig Don't Count - Pennsylvania Does |
|
love how on CNN the headline is now:
"On To Pennsylvania for Obama and Clinton!"
Does anyone think the MSM will pay any attention to the results in Mississippi and Wyoming?

1. Seems like more Clintomania |
|
little states where Obama does well doesn't matter. Only the big blue states that Clinton is probably going to win.

when the media wasn't busy anointing Hillary before the elections actually started they have been asking what should Hillary do to win ever since.

13. I'm mostly in agreement |
|
Hillary has been the inevitable candidate for a long time, but recently the press momentum has been all Obama. They haven't really trashed her like some people would like to think, but Obama has been their golden boy.

4. Not big media markets. |
|
Fly over states.
Why would any New Yorker give a crap about Wyoming... or Mississippi?
True for the media as well as the candidate in question.
Ok... this is :sarcasm: because I grew up in Kansas, have lived in Colorado, Arizona, and California.
Only California ever "mattered" to the MSM... and a lot of other East coast / West Coast people.

5. Pennsylvania's not going to count! |
|
We're doing everything we can to see to that here in Philly.
I can't believe that I'm working so hard to make myself irrelevant! :crazy:

7. Excellent - we will help you to "Not Count" |
|
given that I went to college outside Philly - I guess this means I will "not count" a little bit more!

6. I live in Mississippi. This state has 33 delegates to offer. |
|
It's not big like California or Texas, but 33 isn't 0 either.

9. If you ever watch the weather channel |
|
The only weather that counts is the east coast from Maine to Florida unless there is a hurricane, mud slides or a tornado somewhere else.
Let's hope to see a election disaster for Hillary in the states that don't count.

10. They will when it erases Clinton's small net gain on the 4th. |
|
It is too bad tho that we will have to wait for a whole month afterwards for the run up to to the next one.
Tho hopefully those two states will stop whatever momentum Clinton gained and a month of exposing Clinton will lead to more big wins for Obama later on!
GOBAMA!!

12. Even if they don't - someone with an official calculator will... |
|
...be adding Obama's delegates won to the official count.
The press wants to keep the fight going as long as possible - great for ratings! But as the number of contests dwindle - the math will be so obvious that even the best spinner will be left saying - it's over.

15. he'll end up netting more delegates in Mississippi and Wyoming than Clinton will in Pennsylvania |
|
but the media probably won't notice, nor will her supporters.
