2. But can he REALLY be considered the nominee if he doesn't carry bitter 60-year-old white women?

Just trying to help the Clintonistas move those goalposts.

[woolldog]

3. haha

:rofl:

[grantcart]

4. wait let me get my helmet lol

:popcorn:go ahead

[Swamp Rat]

7. "Clintonistas"

I'm surprised you are not burnt to a cinder yet.



:yoiks:

[jgraz]

8. I'm just trying to toughen them up for the fall.

:P

[Swamp Rat]

11. LOL!

:rofl:

I'm standing waaaaay back from y'all. :D

[Window]

27. LMAO!

:rofl:

[ExFreeper4Obama]

5. All those states don't count

Clinton is the Queen of the Democratic party.

:sarcasm:

[msallied]

10. Those states weren't part of her 15-State Strategy.

And the states that were part of it that she lost... also not part of it.

[Hideboh]

16. But^

64% of those states are GOP strongholds.

[Gore1FL]

6. You forgot DC

[FlyingSquirrel]

12. Drat! Well DC didn't count.

And it wouldn't have fit anyway. I had no spaces left.

:crazy:

[Gore1FL]

15. It counts! just not important!

:)

[msallied]

9. Yeah well... she won OHIO and TEXAS

The people have spoken!! It's not about the delegates!! So THERE!

:sarcasm:

[jgraz]

13. Except for the part where she actually lost Texas

I wonder if Bill will tell her to drop out now.

[msallied]

14. But 100,000 People Have Spoken!!

:rofl:

I don't know if I can continue to play the role of a nutty Shillary-Lover.

Math was never a strong subject for me, but thankfully I aced arithmetic. I think that automatically disqualifies me for this camp. ;)

[Hoof Hearted]

17. M-I-C ..K-E-Y . ... .. M-O-U-S-E!

Neither of them has the math. Bummer. On to convention we go!

[msallied]

19. Thanks for confirming

that you are not only comfortable with a massive revolt within your own party, but that you'd prefer it if it gets your girl nominated. Wow.

[Hoof Hearted]

20. If you feel so strongly about it you should urge Obama to drop out.

He can't win the requisite number of delegates. It the health of the party is paramount in his priorities, he would drop out, as per your argument.

[msallied]

22. WHY would he drop out?? He's WINNING!

Christ you people are thick.

[Hoof Hearted]

23. He can't win the majority of delegates. The math isn't there.

2025 are needed to win and HE CAN'T GET THERE.

[FlyingSquirrel]

25. Can easily get there (and will). Here's the math.

Pledged: Obama 1360, Clinton 1220

Best case scenarios for HRC:

WY: Obama 8, Clinton 4
MS: Obama 16, Clinton 17
PA: Obama 62, Clinton 89
Guam: Obama 2, Clinton 1
IN: Obama 34, Clinton 32
NC: Obama 44, Clinton 47
WV: Obama 10, Clinton 16
KY: Obama 22, Clinton 25
OR: Obama 20, Clinton 28
MT: Obama 7, Clinton 8
SD: Obama 7, Clinton 7
PR: Obama 21, Clinton 30

Subtotals: Obama 253, Clinton 304

Totals: Obama 1613, Clinton 1524

A few extra tossed in there that haven't been awarded yet, give each another 50.

Totals: Obama 1663, Clinton 1574

By this time the superdelegate lead will be gone, possibly in favor of Obama.



Give Obama just 50% of the superdelegates (398) and he has 2,061 (36 more than needed)

This is all best case scenario for Clinton without MI and FL.

Add in MI and FL, totals would be:

Obama 1785, Clinton 1752

She still loses Pledged delegates by 33. BEST CASE SCENARIO for her.

Obama wins a plurality of states and delegates; superdelegates would have to split 55%-45% or so in favor of Clinton to overturn this result.

Not. Gonna. Happen.

[grantcart]

21. Today Obama's magic number went to 465 all he needs is 45% of the

remaining delegates. Sorry math isn't your strong suit.

[David Zephyr]

18. 26 to 14 states. 600,000 more votes. 150 more pledged delegates.

And 50 more super delegates about to drop his way this week, too.

I like the title of your OP.

[Snowbot]

24. But those states don't matter!

[Scurrilous]

26. Kick

:kick:

[Medusa]

28. Per the Clinton campaign:

Only states she won count towards the Democratic nomination. Like Michigan where she was the only candidate on the ballot. :rofl:

[jakem]

29. kick and lol.
