In your time zone, unless you go to sleep pretty darn late, the odds of that are low. Because California could quite literally come down to the district by district counts, and there's no way that kind of detail will be available early in the evening.

NorthSideSox72 Posted February 5, 2008 Author Share Posted February 5, 2008 OK everyone there is a specific thread for the Super Tuesday (SDOGPEIT) discussions - lets use that today and tomorrow for that purpose. This thread is getting absurdly large. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted February 5, 2008 Share Posted February 5, 2008 Clinton campaign wants more debates! Â I think they want Obama debating so he has less time to campaign. Campaigning erodes Hillary's support wherever he goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campaigning erodes Hillary's support wherever he goes. I think you're wrong on that last part, and I'll point to N.H. as the example.  But in terms of their motivation, here's an alternate one...their campaign is out of money and needs any free air time it can get.

Rex Kickass Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 I'm betting its anywhere between 7 and 10 mil in the bank as we speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spent more than that on Iowa though. One ad buy for some major states would eat up 1/3 to 1/2 of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Kickass Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 The schedule lightens up considerably after this. The next few weeks are favorable to Obama anyway. Not so super Tuesday is Clinton's next moment and there's some breathing room there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
103 mph screwball Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 There is a good chance a Sox fan will be running for President in November. The momentum is with Obama as he won a slim victory on super Tuesday and really closed the gap even in states he lost. He did really well in states he spent time in. He will have time to visit more of the states that have upcoming primaries. He is doubling the Clintons' fund raising and will have more money to get his message to the people. He has mobilized a ton of ordinary people sending in $25-100 bucks and making phone calls. This guy is the real deal with a grass roots movement. He is having the impact on the younger generation that JFK had on his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
