What scenario would YOU be satisfied with tomorrow?
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 07:13 PM by adoraz
State whether you are a Clinton or Obama supporter. I am for Obama and would be satisfied with:

Texas: Obama plus 1 (just want to see him win)
Ohio: Clinton plus 5 (not counting on Obama to win, just want it close)
Vermont: Obama plus 20 (want to see a big lead)
Rhode Island: Clinton plus 8


If thats the scenario, I would be satisfied with it.

What about everyone else?


Oh, and Obama supporters I realize she would need huge margins to stay in from a reasonable point of view, but I just don't want her squeaking out wins in both Ohio and Texas, and then claiming it as some big win and continuing on.

1. Pro-Clinton. RI by ONE point.
Obama has to win ALL FOUR and win them BIG in order to be considered the winner.

He who lives by the mo shall die by the mo.

13. Leave the goal posts alone
Team Obama has been setting the bar for two months, and Hillary has been obliged to submit to it. Every election has been hers to lose. The press gave Obama a free ride. And now that Obama is in such a commanding lead, he should be able to dispatch the Evil One in one blow tomorrow night.

Right?

If he can't do it, it will prove that he ISN'T crushing her. And it will be a competitive race. She will start winning races again, and delegates will start to switch back.

But Obama's team can't take frustration or stress. A competitive race will make them crazy. They will break down.

It's always that way with the arrogant.

6. Mathematically: If C doesn't just win but win with Large MARGINS in TX & OH then she cant catch up..
Delegate counts mean everything and her just squeaking a win is a terrible loss...and so to be content that Obama wins say 3 out of 4 tomorrow is a disaster..

2. Pro Obama: Clinton must have + 20 in TX and OH to be considered a winner. She was there 2 weeks ago.

Anything else is a downward spiral.

9. Obama obliterates her in every state, and she is taken away by men in white coats.

11. Obama wins Texas, Vermont, and Rhode Island. Clinton barely winds OH...
...Obama pushes his lead in delegates, and Clinton drops out.
