Obama takes Wyoming
Obama wins seven of 12 delegates and 60 percent of caucus-goers' votes in the nation's least-populous state.
Mark Schone [2008-03-08]

  • Spin this

    The numbers do support Obama in the fukked up Democratic primaries and do NOT support him in the fukked up general election. If the delegate counts were winner take all, like the Electorial college in the general election, Hillary is ahead in delegates. Winning the winner take all big states is not a nice to have in the general election, they are got to have. Did I mention the general election rules were fukked up? At least not any more so than the Democratic primaries, just in a different way.

    If there is no clear winner or no kissy makeup between the Democratic candidates, and Obama decides to run as an independent, it helps Clinton in the general election by syphoning independents from McCain.

    If Clinton decides to run as an independent it looks good for her, again due to Obama splitting independents with McCain and Clinton then mopping up with the democratic base.

    Ain't life a bitch.
