What states were a surprise? I expected Hillary to do better in Connecticut and Delaware, but I was |
|
not otherwise surprised.
Anyone else surprised by any results?

6. She was up 40% in Mass not long ago. Obama's closing of that gap was astounding |
|
and shows VISIBLE growing strength while his opponent is showing a weakening grip.

that the Kennedy endorsement had nothing to do with Massachusetts...that was for a national audience. As far as Obama faring in this state..he did very well...thank you very much. Closed that gap by quite a bit. Oh yeah, trash your own Governor, and your own Senators for the votes they cast..and leave the two most liberal Senators that happen to represent me alone.

2. I live in CA and I am surprised that Clinton is doing so well |
|
thus far in Santa Clara county. I read that Asian Americans are voting more for Clinton than Obama. There are many Asian Americans in this county. Could that be the reason? Does anyone know why Asian Americans are favoring Clinton? Is it because they liked Bill?

And I'm surprised Obama cracked 40% in NY, NJ, and Mass. considering Hillary was up by 30-40% inat some points in those states not too long ago.
What an amazing close. That is visible GROWING strength.

7. Really? I always expected Missouri to go to Hillary by a strong percentage. |
|
Gephardt was helping her there for for at least a year.

9. The Reuters/Cspan/Zogby poll gave me the impression that Obama was really on the move in Missouri so |
|
I expected him to win, which still looks possible but not likely.

4. I was shocked and pleased that she so easily carried Massachusetts and |
|
was thrilled she carried NJ. All in all, when his momentum was supposed to be a tsunami, I am very pleased so far. Hope she pulls out California. If she does, I believe it will be because the grandstanding for him looked like piling on to everyday people.

8. Is anyone calling Missouri? If Clinton wins, that would mildly confound my expectations. |
