How will the MSM React to Obama's BIG win in Oregon? |
|
You would think only Kentucky was having its primary by the way some talk. But Oregon has white working-class people don't they? That's what it primarily is I think.

1. What's the difference in delegates in the two states? |
|
I think there are MANY more at stake in Oregon than in Kentucky ...

3. Obama will win OR by 10-15 Points, Hillary will win KY by 20-30 Points |
|
And they are worth nearly the same amount of delegates.
Oregon has 52, Kentucky has 51.
I think the MSM will call it her night.

5. Obama will have won more pledged delegates and be endorsed by Nancy Pelosi |

8. I doubt they will. The MSM seems to recognize that it's over |
|
and the day after the primaries, Obama will receive 20+ SD endorsements- all of the Pelosi Club members and several more. That will be the story.

10. KY is more important... the "presumptive nominee" should not be losing by 40pt margins! |
|
Edited on Thu May-15-08 03:55 PM by Texas Hill Country
he should win OR by 20pts... he has 3 times the money (or more), the media saying that its over, and has virtually been crowned...
KY and WV are indicative of some very serious problems.

12. It won't be a WV-style slaughter. |
|
But it'll be 20-30 points!

I'd agree with you...however since after that there are 3 more contest with less than 80 delegates.
He doesn't have any problems as far as the nomination is concerned.

23. "KY and WV are indictative of some very serious problems." |
|
Yes ... They illustrate sharply that there is a big chunk of the electorate there that is racist. Yes, most Hillary voters were not racist. But there was a significant chunk that were racist. More than 20 percent openly admitted it ... You can only imagine how many more did not admit it, but voted accordingly.

If Hillary had any class, she would quit the race and throw her support behind Obama before Kentucky. She looks pathetic really-bad for the party.

11. CLINTON CLOSES IN ON NOMINATION |
|
The fact that she got 128 delegates compared to Obama's 187 will be buried very deep in the article.
(And I'm pulling numbers out of the air, I have no idea how many delegates Oregon has. :hi: )

17. Probably. But only a handful more, and the next day |
|
Obama will receive the SD endorsement of all the Pelosi Club members and several more. He'll end up with more total delegates than she does.

Then maybe we can get some real journalists and broadcasters who will work in the public interest, necessity, and convenience.

19. They'll talk for hours |
|
about how bizarre it is that Puerto Rico will be the "deciding factor" and the history of that. Ignoring their own comments about it being essentially over to milk it for a few more hours.
