    False assumption?

    I'm not sure it follows that just because Clinton won the "large states" (sometimes by slim margins) in the primaries against Obama she will win these states in the general election against McCain. Different contests, different opponent.

    Will someone please make this line of argument clear to my spin-addled brain?
