based on mobilizing more volunteers and contributors and his relative strength is the South and West. Obama also makes a play for expanding the Dem base by attracting independents and Republicans.
I am not certain he will be a great POTUS. I think he may be. I'm pretty certain HRC will be a mediocre POTUS.
Uh, no. The most current polls in already-voted states at SUSA show that after the Wright fiasco, the Independents and Reagan Dems have moved to McCain.
Obama is also losing the now disillusioned youth vote and the white male vote.
Superdelegates have every right to acknowledge that and consider same in making choices.
You don't win in November with delegates. You win with electoral votes.
There's a "dissillusioned youth" vote?
How do pollsters factor that in? "If Tinkerbell were dying, would you: a) Clap to save her? b) Walk off an listen to more Panic! At the Disco?
Have any Obama supporters on MyDD stopped supporting Obama b/c of Rev. Wright?
It seems that you want there to be a big backlash against Obama to justify what you wanted before the Rev. Wright tapes surfaced.
Obama has weathered the Wright tapes. And his volunteers are still volunteering. And his contributors are still contributing.
Well I guess we are extremely lucky to have the SD's here to think for all us common folk...
...does not mean you're 'threatening' the east with the sun.
If people observe that the democrat party will be torn apart when the nominee with the greatest numbers of votes/states/delegates loses to the one with less, then that's hardly a threat. It's just information. And common sense. Spinning it back on the sayer is spanish inquisition tactics
That depends on whether a large group of the popular vote felt bamboozled and regret that vote after seeing the Wright videos, which changes the equation.
If current state polls show a large change in same , superdelegates have every right to take that into consideration.
Every single time I see this mentioned I ask then why even have a primary in the first place? Shouldn't we just allow party leaders to determine the nominee? Isn't that what you advocate when saying that?
