It makes him look even weaker--as if he's AFRAID to engage Clinton on national security issues. Somehow the Obama campaign has lost its mojo, and all they have left is whining. Hillary Clinton and ABC are being MEAN to me!

And apparently, according to Axelrod's boy Drudge, they're going to lose PA by double digits. Wheels coming off the front-runner's chariot, it would appear.

you have to put your challenger away. Tomorrow is Obama's chance. If he fails yet again, as he did in Ohio, you just have to wonder what exactly is wrong with his campaign. It's not like he doesn't have the cash to bury Clinton--he just can't seem to do it.

because your candidate is floundering, looks weak, and is going to lose, despite all his advantages. I understand your anger--you're bitter, right?

Time for your meds, dear.

How come your candidate is going to lose a state where only Dems can vote and he had a month to campaign and outspent his opponent 2-1? Must be something amiss with your candidate. Since it's supposedly "over" and all.

"There is a percentage of the American electorate who will simply not vote for a black person no matter what his qualities or qualifications.'

Add in the fact that this particular black candidate has no qualifications to speak of, and it's even worse!

WHY can't the front-runner, with the race supposedly over, win a Dem-only primary in a major swing state when he had all the financial advantages? Why?

Um, it's not working out that way for him since Ohio... He's spending desperately in the hope of success--and falling short. A bad sign, frankly. He will have a huge money advantage over McCain, but if he can't seal the deal with voters in key swing states, he's going to lose, no matter how much he raises and spends. And Clinton is proving, in Ohio and today in Pennsylvania, that he can't seal that deal.

Why can't your candidate, the front-runner with all the advantages you just listed, seal the deal with wins in key swing states like Ohio and Pennsylvania? This has nothing to do with your fantasies of "it's over." It has to do with whether you can explain WHY Obama is falling short. Any ideas?

Can we have one brave Obamabot step up to the plate and explain WHY their candidate is going to lose the second major swing state since his February hot streak? Drop all the chatter about delegate totals and explain precisely what it is about their candidate that falls short in these important states? This will be an issue in November, so probably worth thinking about now. But I can understand your need for denial given that he's about to lose Pennsylvania by double digits. Easier to say "it's over and it doesn't really matter" than to address the lingering problems with your candidate. Because if there weren't such problems, he'd have put Clinton away long ago. A stronger Dem candidate definitely would have.

I'm just hoping for a big ugly mash-up. You still didn't answer my question. Obama's gonna get crushed tonight by 15+ points, a huge blow-out. It will be a PR disaster for him, and all the spin about pledged delegates and overall popular vote (excluding FLA and MI conveniently) won't paper over the fact that your candidate, with all the press support and a huge money advantage, just can't get it done. Very sad for you and for Obama. But happy for me! Kill each other, Dems! It's such fun to watch! You'll never nominate a good candidate again!

and sheer disasters as front-runners. I'm enjoying watching them bloody each other up. Edwards was the only real chance Dems had in the GE. You'll be sending up a flawed, beaten candidate for a divided party, which is very happy news!

It's a cold front meeting a warm front and wiping out the Dems! A testicle-crushing vistory for Clinton tonight. Obama will be hideously wounded. The superdelegates will panic like sick dogs. What's happening on YOUR planet? Has Obama ascended into heaven yet?

a critique of my reasoning is actually praise. Your candidate will be mutilated this evening. Spin it as you please. If he loses by only 14 points after trailing by 20, is that a victory? Only in Obamaland.

The only question is whether he loses by 8 or 15. Happy to meet here in a few hours to check the status of your rhetorical question. What if Obama wins? LMAO.

I just want the Dems to destroy each other some more. It's fun! And, achilles, I guess that you are the idiot. What do I win?

and Obama and Clinton are both walking corpses. Their death struggles are entertaining but ultimately kind of sad. Only the Dems could figure out a way to screw up this election.

screw you.

Face it, Obama sucks as a GE candidate.

commit suicide in the GE. It really couldn't be clearer. Swing voters, from working class whites to older voters to Latinos, have not hopped on the Obama bandwagon, and they are the groups most likely to defect to McCain in November. Moreover, Clinton's campaigning--and his own mindless stumbles--have poisoned the water with those groups now, probably irrevocably.

I love the Democratic party--it is almost unbelievably stupid and self-destructive.

"Obama, if he gets the nomination, should have no problem winning the major democratic strongholds come November."

It's hard to believe how utterly naive this fantasy is. Latino communities in the West and Southwest could swing key states to McCain. Older voters in Florida plus his campaign's machinations to insure the freezing out of the primary vote there) will almost surely cost him that state Working-class whites in Ohio, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey (Reagan Dems, essentially) could easily opt for McCain.

Do you REALLY believe that rich white liberals, black folks, and college kids can win Obama the Presidency?
