Do the numbers suggest bad news for Obama in California?

    . The Obambi thing is tired already.

    Okay, but you have to admit it is somewhat fitting.

    2. It's a primary. A fact you don't seem to understand. Die hard dems voting, die hard repubs. Your really think that will translate in a general election?

    I do indeed understand. It's actually the states Obam..a has won big we dont have chance in (Georgia, SC and Alabama).

    WJC won AK and TN, NM and HRC can too. (plus CO and OH) Notice she's winning in all the more conservative districts which is telling about her ability to win the elderly vote we'd lost. I do beleive people are hurting enough economically in these places to vote for her.

    But you are correct. McCain will NOT be easy to beat. He'll have free press, tons of money, already fares well with independents, hasn't alienated himself from Latinos like the rest of the GOP, is from the west where the GOP needs to stop their losing trend, has gotten a free pass as a foreign policy "expert", and can trot out Liberman like a dog for example of his bipartisanship.

    That's why it IS important we have someone experienced and who can compete in the heartland. Hillary may not pull it off in the end, but she'll at least give it a big fight. She's tested. NO fresh dirt. No slumlords and kickbacks and all that fresh stuff.
