    Does anyone else remember a candidate that bet the farm on a later state with more delegates?

    Yeah, the similarity was noted a bit ago. I'm speculating that Clinton's finances are actually much worse than they were letting on, and that she's basically forced into this strategy. How else do you explain the fact that Clinton is booking school gyms, public piers, and civic centers while Obama is booking sports arenas?

    I also find it amusing that Clinton is constantly hawking her website at debates or in interviews, while Obama never really says a word about it, and assumes that people know how to fucking find something on the goddamn internet.

    Obama has too much faith in people.

    It sure seems like a lot of people have found his website. At least 400,000 or so have even donated.

    Oh, and from Obama's website:

    Madison, WI Rally tomorrow!

    Being held in the Kohl Center... interestingly enough named after the family of Senator Herb Kohl of Wisconsin... a superdelegate and a bit of an establishment Democrat.

    Sorry, I was just making a joke; I didn't mean to offend. Seriously though, what she did was really neat--my own sister turned 18 on the day of Alabama's primary and wasn't able to vote because of that, and I had the same issue with a state election when I turned 18.

    i wonder what the term is for bigotry against Island people

    Anyway it's because they are small fishies in terms of delegates.

    The idea that your vote is a moral statement about you or who you vote for is some backwards ass libertarian nonsense. Your vote is about society. Vote to protect the vulnerable.

    They're projecting 35% turnout for Wisconsin (the state record is 50%, set in 1960), but- just in case- they're printing out enough ballots to handle 70-75%.

    If we're using news items for OP's, I could just use that if we need a new thread.
