I think Clinton won Ohio
If you look at this exit polling, many more women voted and they voted for Hillary. In addition, she got 11% of the black vote. I don't think there's anything in here that looks good for Obama, sorry to say.

4. Exit polls adjust their results to reflect the voting trend.
It's extremely close and every exit poll has some type of margin of error. This is why CNN/MSNBC and FOX haven't called it for Clinton, even though the math might add up to Clinton winning by 3 or so points. The reason for this is that the data can change, especially if Obama were to run the score up in inner-city Ohio. Remember, Missouri exit polls had Obama losing by 4, he won by 1.

5. I agree, but she needs a big victory to even come close to chipping away at Obama's 150 del. lead
And I am not getting the sense that that happened.

7. I agree. Those numbers suggest a Hillary win in OH.
That's the tone of the media coverage too... They keep saying "if" she wins Ohio, etc.

9. These exit polls change over time as more results come in
And remember that Hillary won the Missouri exit polls by 3-4 points.

17. Texas looks good - Ohio not so good.
TX (P) 1%Obama 58%Clinton 41%

They're asking for the polls to stay open later in OH. OH has always worried me because of Diebold, and the dirty tricks that go on. They gave us shrub - I just plain don't trust them.

18. I think that if it's close in Ohio that is a Obama victory
if it's anywhere like five points.

19. Yep. I expect Clinton to win, but by 5 or less.
And she loses Texas.

And that's ballgame, folks.

21. It's all about the net delegate gain
and she's walking out of here tonight with a possible NET LOSS. So let her "win" Ohio. Doesn't mean shit.
