Who gives a flying fig? America won't vote for a woman or a black guy. By winning the GOP primary, McCain has sewn up the election; picking a conservative Christian as VP all but locks it up.

It's either that or Bush just decides that he doesn't want to step down. One of those.

Here's the story, incase you haven't heard... (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7276305.stm)

What effect will Clinton winning Texas, Rhode Island and Ohio (have on the race?

Can Obama get back the momentum he lost or will Clinton use her victories to get back on the road to the nomination? (I can only hope it's the first...)

Will the race now drag on to the Convention and will this practically hand the next four years to McCain? If it does go down to Superdelegates, who would come out on top? I foresee there being draws in all the primaries from here on in. I hope that the Superdelegate flow will keep going to Obama, though.

You got to wonder though, what's wrong with America? I actually don't understand why anyone is still voting Clinton - McCain would (and perhaps will) trounce her in the Generals. And call me a Marxist, but I really don't think anyone can hang around Washington as long as she has without becoming a tool of big business. Which is a shame, because she used to be awesome.

What do you think?
And can you guess whio's side I'm on? :p

Wait, the title is bad grammar! Oh no, too late...

how did Hillary win? Some of it was rather underhand, with people that normally would vote for McCain voting for Hillary, knowing that she'll loose it November. Hopefully, the democrats see this and nominate Obama. Now, a large portion of her win was people who really wanted her to win, but I don't have the exact numbers, so the swappers may have pushed her over the edge.

Meh. Regardless of who wins, very little will change in this country.

Quick! Turn it into a cynical point about how very few people actually get a say in who wins it!

I think the finish at the Democrat race will be a photo finished.

Too bad yesterday's Primaries didn't knock Hillary out.

Basically, American is totally screwed no matter who they vote for, its just one democratic puppet after another as far as the corporations are concerned

just comes down to different face with a different bribe amount, but still a puppet none-the-less

Not sure where you're getting that from...

Well America has no good politicians to vote for president so it seems once again they will suffer a terrible leader.

So many cynicists... I don't like the pool this time around either, but I still feel that whoever does manage to win the WH can (and may) change a great deal in this country. Whether that change is good or bad is highly debatable, though.

Cynicism is the vogue intellectual short cut, can't be bothered to come up with any sort of real critique or evaluation, just say everything sucks and anyone who doesn't believe that is naive, instant intellectual.

As for what will happen, Pennsylvania is April 22nd, April 22nd...that's her new firewall. Even if Obama goes on the same winning streak that he's been on, she's going to hold out for Pennsylvania because only she can win big states. Apparently. And industrial states.

So, for those keeping track, the states that matter now are: Big states, industrial states. The 22 states that Obama has won? Don't matter. Only the 11 she has won.

That giant drag from Super Tuesday to yesterday, this one will be half again as long.

Most party leaders wanted this over by today but they're going to have a hard time bringing that about now since after a day like that it'd be near impossible to convince Clinton to give up.

Steel cage. Two Democrats enter, one leaves.

But in all seriousness, Clinton can't beat McCain, period.

And I had already called this. Texas was obviously going to Clinton because of the Hispanic votes. Ohio was a little more relevant. Pennsylvania will be the make or break for both of them.

Not sure where you're getting that from...
You've used Democrat in the singular sense in the title. It implies that there's only one Democrat. You could twist the OP to make it seem like this is an offhand jab at the nomination process, particularly the whole "superdelegates" thing...

Oh, never mind.

Steel cage. Two Democrats enter, one leaves.
Man, the advertising revenue you'd get from televising that would more than cover the presidential campaign for the winner.
