Gallup is no longer stressing the Obama / CLinton Matchup in their polls. It is focusing on Obama / McCain.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ May 21, 2008 -> 10:58 AM) I will not vote for Obama if Edwards is the VP. why?

Seriosuly, Obama - Edwards is a Kickass ticket...

Oregon Exit Polls: Obama Handily Beat Hillary Among Whites, No-College, Less-Than-$50,000 Voters

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2008 -> 09:28 AM) As do I but these are the rules both campaigns agreed to. You can't change the rules mid-stream. no argument from me. I am willing to meet halfway with the delegates counting as half, but anything beyond that is not acceptable.

hmmmm....

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2008 -> 07:50 AM) Why would caucus states not be counted? I thought Hillary wanted everyone's vote to count? I saw an interview on MSNBC last night with a Clinton Supporter from Florida. Normally I would say she was just spouting talking points, but you could tell this was her real opinion and heart felt. She said that the primary system basically needs to be blown up. The caucuses have serious flaws and the length is rediculous. I, for one, agree.

I just got to thinking... Let's assume, for the sake of argument, McCain loses to Obama. I think the 2012 Republican Primaries might be VERY similar to the democrats this year. "Elite" Romney vs "BlueCollar" Huckabee. I think it might be epic.

Pop. Vote Update: Minus FL and MI- Obama +452,136 Minus MI- Obama +157,364 All States- Clinton +170,945 In the all states count, Obama would need only 28.76% of the votes in MI to tie Clinton to date. If he got the "uncommitted" votes, he'd be up 95,144. Another Note: To date, Edwards has roughly 992,946 million votes.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 21, 2008 -> 07:53 AM) Neither does the President. veto... yes, there are checks and balances, but you get my point.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2008 -> 07:48 AM) She's already part of it as a member of Congress. she doesnt hold the ultimate power though

QUOTE (rangercal @ May 21, 2008 -> 06:54 AM) Love the Sig! :headbang

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 21, 2008 -> 07:17 AM) The LA Times is reporting that Hillary Clinton is nearly $31 million in debt. The news comes off a release from her campaign Tuesday night that she has raised $22 million. :unsure: I dont want her anywhere near our national budgeting process.

I think the Obama camp will make clinton drop the popularly vote argument in exchange for this MI / FL thing getting hammered out. Anyone with half a brain can tell that the FL and MI votes are NOT legit. Award the delegates, btu the vote numbers are VERY flawed. I bet if MI was done again today, Clinton wins 55-45, if not less. She'd win by less than she bet "uncommitted"

MSNBC call Oregon for Obama. No surprise there. Probably a 10-15 point win. CNN said that based on the way the primary is conducted, Oregon i expected to release "a large percentage" of the vote very soon. I think i read that something like 77% of voters had already voted before today.

http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/24736742/ I can live with that.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:17 PM) My last name has been read by thousands of people. But it doesn't mean he wants it connected to him. fair point. I'll respect his privacy. Sorry red.

QUOTE (Brian @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:16 PM) 8? Yikes. Oregon people slow? oregon's primary system is very strange.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2008 -> 07:14 PM) CNN proclaims Obama the pledged delegate winner. until Clinton's people change the rules.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 20, 2008 -> 07:46 PM) I don't know that he would want his families name out there.... it's in the news article read by thousands of people.

the #1 pick is kind of a big deal. DOesnt this warrant it's own thread?

QUOTE (Brian @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:07 PM) Question, if it were the other way around, with Hillary in front and Obama trailing with a slim chance to win, would Barack have conceded by now? I like to think so. Didnt HUckabee say he couldn't win but still pushed on? I think he at least admitted publicly that he couldn't win. Correct me if I am wrong.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:03 PM) Kirk Hinrich + Drew Gooden + Tyrus Thomas for Elton Brand + Brevin Knight Rose - Thabo - Deng - Brand - Noah w/ Gordon off the bench = sickness. http://realgm.com/src_checktrade.php?tradeid=4605077 are Brand / Knight on the block? Also, isnt this the last year for Gordon? We could just let him walk after this year.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:03 PM) Hillary going to win by 250,000 in Kentucky. All we'll hear about is the popular vote now. and even that metric is VERY flawed coming from her.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 20, 2008 -> 08:00 PM) If you can find a taker for Ben Wallace's contract, you can find someone who will give you something for Kirk. You might have to be open to packaging him with Gordon, which I am if we're drafting Rose. And you don't necessarily have to make the move before the draft. Dang it! THe Knicks just HAD to get rid of Thomas huh? That was ripe for picking a few more top pics. oh well.
