Obama's the BIG LOSER tonight...what happened to the SURGE???

[CyberPieHole]

Is it gone with the wind? Senator Clinton will probably win California and Obama will be back to voting "PRESENT".:rofl:

[knowledgeispwr]

1. Obama started 20-30% behind Clinton

He closed the gap.

[jlake]

25. It looks like it may be a nearly 20 point spread.

[cgrindley]

63. No it doesn't (nt)

[LittleClarkie]

2. Holding a slight delegate lead at the mo' according to Huffpost

That's losing?

[buff2]

3. I hope!

:toast:

[JI7]

4. he won a bunch of states he was behind in by double digits just weeks ago

and came close in the others.

[godai]

7. Checked Missouri lately? n/t

[Sulawesi]

8. If Clinton keep beating him like this she is going to need a job in November!

[meow mix]

9. here they come... this is proof obama won the night

lol

[CyberPieHole]

54. keep telling yourself that...you might start to believe it.

[VolcanoJen]

10. The "Surge" is Obvious, isn't it?

Even to you?

See you in Ohio.

[dchill]

18. And PA!

:)

[CyberPieHole]

53. Yeah, the "surge" that gave him a 13% lead in CA. rofl

[angie_love]

11. Classy classy classy

[whatchamacallit]

22. Judging by post time, we had a mind meld ; )

[whatchamacallit]

12. I appreciate your classy post

Smegface

[MadBadger]

13. Obama was down 7 points in places like Minnesota last week. He won by 30.

[TheDonkey]

41. WHOOPS

[CyberPieHole]

51. He was supposed to have a 13% lead in CA....with the help of Ophra, Teddy and circus act...

What happened? Did he win CA by 30?

[krkaufman]

55. Who the heck was saying that?

see... http://www.pollster.com/08-CA-Dem-Pres-Primary.php

[CyberPieHole]

59. Try Zogby...

http://swarheit.blogspot.com/2008/02/final-zogby-poll-obama-up-13-in.html

[krkaufman]

62. Good lord, did they learn nothing from New Hampshire.

This election is far too volatile and fast-moving to be making bold declarations like that. I only look at the merged poll trends and multi-day polling averages.

How could their polling possibly account for the rapid ascent of Obama and his "supporters" uncertainty, plus the effects of the Edwards decision.

[leftynyc]

67. The dozens of people

who posted the Zogby poll for starters. You must have been off line all day.

[gateley]

65. There WERE other states than California that were involved in the voting today.

I guess you didn't get the news.

Edit - never mind.

[musicblind]

14. As a Hillary Clinton supporter... you cannot be serious?

Obama the BIG LOSER tonight? Tonight proved that this nation is SPLIT... RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE. I do not think that either candidate lost tonight, or won, this is a frustrating race. Obama did well and his supporters should be very proud. I'm proud of my girl as well.

[caligirl]

38. Interesting that Obama also won some states McCain will need in

November. People talking about the two Dem candidates on the Nov ticket might want to appreciate that he was able to win some red states today.
concern about the south for dems in Nov is still there though.

[tabasco]

15. You are dense.

Hil was supposed to sweep this thing a couple weeks ago and now it looks like Obama will get more delegates.

Your post makes you look very stupid and I suspect that is true.

[CyberPieHole]

50. Obama's "surge" was supposed to have put him with a 13% lead in CA...

What happened, basco? Your candidate lose his heat?

[Unsane]

Winning 13 states = losing?

:crazy:

[tammywammy]

16. Classy

[tekisui]

17. Clean your glasses, chump. A movement is passing you by.

19. We predicted he would win by a tiny amount he surged from being way behind and still moving.

[CyberPieHole]

47. Predictions were that he had a 13% lead...LOL...A 13% LEAD...rofl

[Misskittycat]

20. 40% of Californians voted early by absentee ballot. Early voting began

in early January. That skews the results, lessening any current momentum or trends.

I haven't heard anyone in the news mentioning that.

[Robeson]

21. How's life in bizzaro world?

[CyberPieHole]

45. Why don't YOU tell us...

:hi:

[MADem]

23. No need to be mean. They both did well tonight. It's probably better to

resist the temptation to "return the favor" if you know what I mean. There was a lot of trash talking going on here by those supporters, I notice they're much quieter than the were a day ago--I think that stomping in Massachusettts took the wind out of their sails...

And they're calling

CALIFORNIA for CLINTON!!!!!!!!!

[caligirl]

24. Clinton had the huge lead, needed to get 200+delegates than she has so far. She cannot

claim the inevitability candidate she ran as, she has lost more states and delegates she thought she would get right into ten miles from her backdoor in NY. Connecticut was suppose to be hers locked up, its not!!!! 20 and 30 point leads vanished and she did not win decisively.

[Moochy]

26. EMPHASIS on * Hole

[CyberPieHole]

44. EMPHASIS on MOO...

The sound a cow makes when it wants' attention.:hi:

[Moochy]

73. stuff it down your pie hole, pie hole

another rude nasty HRC supporter! SHOCKED!

[CyberPieHole]

74. Cram it up your MOO, MOO...

a Clinton hater with filthy mouth...who knew?


MOOOOO!:rofl:

[Moochy]

77. Easily amused are you?

a "clinton hater" no you paint with too broad a brush.. Just a pie-hole troll hater.

[Moochy]

27. Woot

Yay for ugly trolls

[sfam]

28. Thanks for helping me with my ignore list!!!

I really need to get rid of the trolls here if I'm gonna stay. Posts like this truly help. Thanks so much! :)

[NoodleyAppendage]

29. The BIG LOSER are the delusional Clintonites that think Clinton can win a general election. n/t

J

[Raine]

30. What are you smoking...CRACK

cause you're completely delusional :silly:

[CyberPieHole]

43. Sorry, I leave the pot and cocaine to Obama and his supporteres.

:hi:

[leftynyc]

68. Why do you have to behave this way?

What is it with the most vocal supporters of either candidate? You all look like fools and do absolutely nothing to help.

[NoBorders]

31. Surge did not equal lead. Classy you are.

It meant catching up.

[cali]

32. ahh, another

complete shitbag of a hill supporter. What a surprise. Sorry, Hole, you're wrong. He's doing just fine against Madame Inevitable/Entitled.

[Invidious]

33. Whatever...let them bask. n/t

[GoldieAZ49]

34. The surge took half the delegates away from the "inevitable"

I can see why you call yourself a piehole

[Eurobabe]

35. Class act. n/t

39. Ugh. Whatever happened to "magnanimous in victory"?

Obama had a respectable showing and is still a contender. Clinton did well too.


Why is it that 90% of the people here have to **HATE** one candidate or the other?

[TheDonkey]

40. Obama's up to the challenge. Enjoy yourself now.

[CyberPieHole]

58. So is Clinton...and he shouldn't count on her supporters any more than she should count on his...

he has drawn the line in the sand. Not Senator Clinton.

[robinlynne]

42. California had major election problems. major. Thousands of voters were disenfranchised.

So don'ty count the CA reuslts right now. Lawsuits are coming.

[krkaufman]

56. Really? Any story links? n/t

[robbedvoter]

64. lawsuits are coming...Why didn't i see this?

[leftynyc]

69. And the stories of cheating coming

out. Just like clockwork. Any links to that?

[robinlynne]

70. WE have written reports from monitors around the county. It will take us at least 2 weeks to read

them all. There are stories from CBS, I think, many voters called in to Thom Hartmann, and we have somevideos documenting the independents who couldn't vote for president, and thousands of dems were removed form the voter rolls.

[proud2BlibKansan]

46. In Kansas, we stood in line while ice rained down on us

to vote for OBAMA. 3 to 1, baby, 3 to 1.

[krkaufman]

52. How 'bout it. Obama supporters did some serious a**-kicking ...

... in the Sunflower State. Well done.

[farmboxer]

48. Republican MSM hate Hillary and always has.

They will never forgive here for trying to give us Universal healthcare, she suffered for such. Why is the Republican right wing corporate mainstream media supported Obama? I like Obama, but MSM is pushing her. Why is that?

[CyberPieHole]

57. Why could that be? Maybe the MSM has seen the error of it's way and has become...

truly liberal and progressive? Or it's just a way to sell air time and to set us up for a great big loss by having Obama become the nominee?

[Lindsey]

61. cyberpiehole or whatever your name is.....

How much is the GOP paying you to try to divide us and make the innocent not vote at all in the GE because "the Hillary people are so mean?"...because you know what....I'm a Democrat first and foremost. I'd prefer Obama but Hillary would be just fine with me. This has Karl Rove written all over it. Oh well....one word: karma.

[cloudythescribbler]

60. Check out my alternative interpretation of an OBAMA WIN in a more recent thread

That's http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x4429972

I'm sure some will not like the etiquette of pointing to another thread, and hopefully I won't be tombstoned for it..............

[cascadiance]

66. Umm.... When you look at percentages of votes and delegate counts...

I think Obama won tonight!  It isn't just about winning the
big states, and the counting isn't done in California just
yet. Obama's risen from 37% to 40% just over the last hour or
so.

Here's the current totals from CNN:

State:         Del. Tot:    Obama:       Hillary:
-----------------------------------------------------
Alabama           52       (56%)  29    (42%)  22

Utah              23       (57%)  14    (39%)   9  (*)
----------------------------------------------------
TOTAL:                           820          796
* - Delegates fully allocated.

Delegates currently earned -> Hillary leads now 494-487
(seven delegates difference is what I'd call a dead heat).

[dionysus]

71. keep huffing that glue toolie...

your girl was supposed to sweep and she won less states and delegates...

:rofl: indeed!!

[yardwork]

72. As a Hillary supporter, I disagree. This is far from over.

We're seeing the tightening of a very close race. It's going to come down to the wire. The Democrats are divided. Unless we want to hand the Republicans a totally unwarranted victory in November, we need to come together and stop bashing Democrats.

It's one thing to support one's candidate. It's quite another to do the Republicans' work for them.

[Sojc]

75. Smart

Wow, smart. People like you are one of the most effective forces swinging voters to Obama.

[AtomicKitten]

76. The surge part was going from 35 pts behind everywhere to a virtual tie.
