  • My prediction

    And I'll own up to it if I'm wrong.

    I'm hoping Obama sweeps all four, but I believe it will be Clinton's day with her taking Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island. She'll probably win by slim margins, but she will still end up winning and the entire story will change to Hillary the Triumphant. This will drag on and on with Clinton getting dirtier and nastier. whoever ends up the nominee will be badly damaged by the time its over.

    Leading into February 5th everyone wondered if Obama's momentum began to late. He held Clinton to a draw then surged ahead. He really should be polling much higher in both Texas and Ohio. She's holding on and now going very negative and low. As much as people complain about those tactics, the truth is they usually work. They gave us eight years of George Bush.

    So I predict a big day for Clinton. She may not make up delegate ground, but it will allow her scratch and claw her way through the primary season.
