Obama's still struggling with white working-class voters. There's still time for him to deal with it -- but Clinton just bought herself some time, too.
  • The new man in town

    I think Hillary's win is huge...not only is it double digit; it is against a candidate outspending her three to one in advertising.

    Hillary's question about why Obama can't close the deal is not just a political ploy; it is a valid consideration. I have always felt that Obama is too inexperienced and too unknown to the electorate--- and that is not even counting the racial divide.

    Similarly, Hillary has the gender divide and admittedly it is big, but she is experienced and well known to voters, warts and all. People are suspicious of the new man in town. Unfortunately, that's what Obama is.

    I hope Hillary is the nominee...I truly believe she stands a much better chance of winning against McCain. Actually, the polls reflect my opinion.

    The superdelegates should think long and hard before they vote. To believe that Obama can defeat McCain when he has yet to win a big Democratic blue state, excepting Illinois, is a stretch. That makes me swallow real hard.
