Vote.

My predictions for tomorrow, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Indiana: Hillary 48, Obama 43

North Carolina: Obama 49, Hillary 44

In a perfect world…

Indiana: Hillary 50, Obama 38

North Carolina: Hillary 49, Obama 42

LET ME HAVE MY MOMENT.

So your prediction is that 9% of Indiana Dem voters and 7% of NC Dem voters are going to vote for someone other than Clinton or Obama?

Wow. Numbers really aren’t your thing, are they?

Please let us know when those drugs wear off, and your moment ends.

Re: 1. PJunkie

Well, let’s see.

Then according to CNN, 7% of NC Dem voters are also going to vote for TBD. And countless other polls - like Zogby - show an 8-point spread.

I guess we all can’t be brainiacs like yourself, PJ.

Re: 3. Pink Lady

Well no, PL. Only if you equate a CNN poll with a prediction. There is, of course, a huge difference.

As for me being a brainiac, I will admit that, yes, it does take some massive brain power to add 43 and 48 and subtract the sum from 100.

Between Hillary’s metaphor catching the fast train to the glue factory and Obama rising once again in the national polls, you seem to be having a rough couple of days.

Therefore, I say you take a mulligan on this one. Take another stab. All in favor, please say “aye”.

And someone within striking distance please give this woman a hug. But remember: you are within striking distance.

Re: 5. PJunkie

Ah, polls, when they’re going our way we love them and when they’re not we happily claim they’re worthless. I say let’s all sit back and mull over the state of a media that is happy to use the death of a horse that a candidate compared herself to as a serious talking point. That must be HRC’s control of the media at work again!

PL, you’re just bitter because you can’t do sums as well as PJ. You should probably turn to guns or religion.

I did turn to religion. But all they taught me was how to count rosary beads.

Sorry

IN
Senator Clinton 51%
Senator Obama 47%

NC
Senator Clinton 48%
Senator Obama 47%

And the beat goes on.

Re: 12. NOITALL

Okay, I’ll play. But these are both very hard to call in terms of margin.

I think you’re probably pretty close on IN. For the sake of sport, I’ll say Hill by 5 there.

NC: I gotta think it’s going to be a wider spread there–and the other way. I’ll go with Obama by 6.

But I am but a walking shadow, a poor player who struts and frets his hour upon the stage then is heard no more. A tale told by an idiot…

So what do I know?
