Clinton raises $35 million in February! Impressive for someone who's lost 11 straight since super Tuesday.

Also:

Latest polls from Real Clear Politics

National Dem Nomination: Obama by 9, his average over the last 7 polls is +7.6% over Clinton, including 1 poll that shows him winning by 16%. Obama gains any more momentum and his wins over clinton will start to take on the apperance of McCain beating Huckabee in the national polls.

PA clinton vs Obama, Clinton by 4!

In October she was up by 33!

Oh, and Rasmussen shows Obama ahead in TX by 4, with Obama leading in 6 of the last 7 polls with 1 being tied.

If these numbers turn out to be true on Tuesday Clinton will win OH by single digits, lose TX by low single, get crushed in VT and perhaps win RI by single digits.

With Obama gaining super delegates each day and WY and MS coming up next week and Clinton fading in PA, I think it will be time for Cenk to pound the gavel on Tuesday night.

< Why McCain and I Should be Allowed to be President | $4? Presidenting is hard work. >

What a joke.

As I've explained before, RCP is a clearing house for political polls, news, and commentary from both sides of the spectrum. I can find as many liberal articles as conservative articles.

They don't skew the polls, they just take recent results and average them. In fact, this simple approach makes their results consistently accurate.

"Clinton raises $35 million in February!"

That's a very good thing. If Hillary and Obama are burning through $70 million per month of Democrat money, just to clobber each other, I hope the fight continues all the way to Denver.

By the time you have a nominee, Democrat wallets will be empty.

It's very enjoyable watching you groping around for straws to grab at.  I almost feel bad.  Well, okay maybe not too bad.

Which red states can Obama win?
red state



New Mexico? Nope. Hispanics don't like him.

Neveda? Nope. Hispanics don't like him.

Colorado? Nope. Hispanics don't like him.

Florida? Nope. Cubans don't like him.

Virginia? Have you ever been to Bristol?

Iowa? Maybe.

Ohio? Maybe.

But what happens if McCain picks a centrist running mate and goes after the moderate vote?

Which light blue state could flip red?

Hmmmmm

Take off the rose colored glasses (none / 0)

they're lousing up your color perception.

What you have to know is this:

La, Miss, Alabama, Ga North Carolina South Carolina and Virginia have been the foundation of Republican electoral votes since since the Kennedy-Nixon election. The "solid South was always democrats territory from pre civil war days up to that election. They couldn't stand the Catholic and they haven't been back in the dem fold since. (maybe Carter won Ga)


Repubz have always relied on a poor or suppressed black voter turnout in those states.

They can kiss those electoral votes goodbye this election if Obama is the nominee. He'll mobilize the black vote and that will carry the day for him in all those states.

He's breakin into their stash and the Repubz gotta be really worried about it

Next time you try to sound like an authority on history, try reading some history first.
you're an idiot
You think you know something about politics in the South?

All of those states you listed have the highest black populations in the country. They also have astronomical turnout of black voters in every election. 95% of the blacks vote Democrat. The problem is that there are three white voters for every black voter in the South, and the whites always vote GOP.

You think southern whites will be more inclined to vote for Barack Obama than Al Gore? The guy who couldn't even carry his home state of Tennessee?

OOooooOOOoooohhhh! Wow! (none / 0)
Lord help me but it feels so good when I can catch a lib in a mistake like that, especially when I can mislead you with something like that "three white voters for every black vote" lie.  Sure, what I said isn't true, but because we've been so successful at demoralizing and suppressing the black vote in the past, we've been able to keep libs from winning.

And, to top it off, I got to call you an idiot. Oooooohhh.  That feels almost as good as an orgasm.

I wonder if I can admit this (none / 0)
I really like it that racism exists and so often works in my favor.  Sure, that article I pointed to quotes an Orthodox Jew, and a lot of Jews who aren't Orthodox/Hasidic think that they're racists, but he's a Jew, for Christ's sake, implying that he could vote for McCain.  And even though he's from New York and the article doesn't say a damned thing about Florida, I'm still gonna rattle your cage by saying that McCain will definitely win Florida.  I'm sure that you libs are just too stupid to actually read that article.

Ethics be damned.  Lying just feels too so good.

Isn't my map pretty?  With that huge area of red?  Of course, I'm hoping that you won't notice that the most populous states are blue and that these red and blue maps just give a dishonest impression of reality.

And you certainly should assume that Hispanics won't vote for Obama if he is the Dems nominee.  Don't you realize that all of those Hispanics who want Hillary will either stay home or vote for McCain in November if Obama wins?

The audacity of polls. (none / 0)
From today's LA Times. As Cenk would say, oooopsie doooopsie.

Obama is riding the crest. This is the high point of his popularity.

By contrst, John McCain is an old guy and yesterday's news. Voters see him as Bush-lite-lite. Conservtives have doubts about voting for him.

And yet, the polls show McCain in the lead.
