Did Clinton win Texas or not?

... the media has already called it for Obama.

Is that the news from today’s caucuses?

There’s a reason that Obama is winning the caucuses (or cauci,as Rush likes to say) and she’s winning more of the primaries. In the caucuses, it is very hard to cheat and miscount the votes. Everything is out in the open and everyone knows who is voting for whom. With the primaries, there are many ways to mess up the votes and fix them for the candidate of choice.

I believe this is what happened in New Hampshire and California. The polls weren’t wrong. Why weren’t they wrong for the Republicans? I don’t buy this nonsense that people are afraid to let pollsters know that they weren’t voting for a black man. These were 2 states that she needed very badly or she was going to have to pack it in. There were many stories about widespread irregularities with voting machines in districts that were favorable to Obama, and lo and behold, she wins these states. In New Hampshire, she only won by 2 or 3 percentage points, and I believe Obama would have won that state if Edwards were not in the race. I don’t remember if he was still in the race for California. But I don’t believe she won that state either by very many votes.

The Clintons believed they could wrap up the nomination by Super Tuesday. They also worked out an electoral scheme based on the national election by concentrating and winning the so-called big states with the most electoral votes.

Her argument that she can win the national election by winning the big-states in the primaries will be her joker card up her sleeve.

However, in her arrogance she never considered being challenged on this massive scale by a young relatively unknown man with a charming and winning personality, something she does not possess, youth included.

I heard on the Rush Limbaugh program that the Clintons packed New Hampshire with lots of out of staters bused in just to vote for her.

I also heard some precincts in New York State that were heavily favored for Obama, went to Clinton.

I worry about PA because the Governor Rendell appears to be so smitten and drunk on Clinton kool-aid. I just hope it is a fair election.

I agree. In NH the Clintoons bussed in people from MA. In Nevada they locked caucus doors 1/2 hr. early. I'm sure there are voting machines holding Obama votes that were never counted in CA. When the vote totals came in from NY Obama had zero votes from Harlem. The dem machine is dirty and is run by the Clintoons.
