Hillary Clinton beat Barack Obama by 10 points! The race was not even close, when it comes to key states that Democrats need to win, Barack loses. Texas, California, Florida, Ohio, all states where Obama was defeated by large margins..
I think the super delegates will start to wake up to the fact that Barack Obama can not win a general election. And, as a party we can't afford a third Bush term under John McCain.

Read the editorial in today's New York Times slapping Hillary's hand.
A good win but she won a grand total of 5 delegates. That's not going to cut it.
Superdelegates won't go against Obama unless she wins the popular vote. He'll make up this loss in North Carolina.
The Big State spin won't fly. Either Democrat will win NY, California and Illinois. Florida will be a toss up as will Ohio. Texas is a loss.
It's the swing states that Obama has won that will determine the election.
How do you figure that just because she won these states it means these people that voted for Clinton will immediately vote for McCain in the general election if she is not the nominee. You voted for Clinton and you have been pretty consistent you would vote for Obama in the general election if he is nominee. This race is about delgates and he is winning and will end up with more delegates than she will...that should be it, he is the nominee. If she ends up the nominee then you will have people abandoning the party to vote for McCain because it will be seen as being given to her when she could not win it. It will also be the end of the super delegate.
Blaber, even from Arkansas, you make the same case as I did on my BLOG.

However, you should go into more detail as to the reasons and be realistic with the inevitable outcome for the nominee.
Obama scares me more than McCain.
Lemme see...if I dare ask Madsen why Obama "scares (him) more than McCain"...methinks he would reply:"Well...differences make the world go 'round...enjoy the Spring!" Hahaha. With such avoidance he should run for President.
It's been a long time since any President sported a five o'clock shadow(Ulysses Grant maybe after a drunken spree after which he made like Britney Spears and sheared his hair off?), and for sure I would love to see that novelty.
Your blog is called "Blaber's New and Commentary." The only problem is, it's not your commentary; its simply the regurgitation of canned sound-bites. Why is that?
That flames of Obama's burning bid are high now, but soon they'll die down like his poll numbers. Reality takes over. Hillary's states make up 285 EV and Barack's just 190 EV. It takes 270 to win and Barack doesn't lead McCain in enough big states to win. Now Barack's negatives are higher than McCain's and close to Hillary's. Check RCP, Hillary leads in the popular vote now too. Unless JJ (Good Times) comes out and debates like a leader, he's over with.
No, Obama made it clear that McCain would be much better than Bush. I believe him. Obama gives us all something to believe in!
Apparently, Blaber believes in Party over Country. He's says, "we as a party cannot afford a third Bush term". Whether or not you support McCain, does anyone else find this 'freudian' slip, discerning?
Clinton has no roots. She has only the name. Time and time again, she has voted in the spirit of positioning, ie voting FOR the war. This will hurt her in the GE. And is why so many O supporters will NOT vote come the GE if he is not on the ticket. He may even pull a Nader. Wouldn't that be lovely.
Neither candidate will become president. One, because of the aforementioned reasons. The other, well, America isn't ready to become a socialist nation.
Just like Sennett, the democrats have miscalculated their strength to force a far left candidate onto the people, depending on the unpopularity republicans currently endure to get them elected.
Mr. Schultz makes a valid point here. andmost of those sound bites can be heard the night before on CNN or some other news program that has pol. pundits as guests.
Schultz your lame blog is from McCain's campaign. You're a McCainine.
It is starting to appear that Jeremy simply is cutting and pasting Clinton talking points. How about some original thought?
The evidence seems to show that the McCain campaign and the Republican National Committee are hammering Obama without a harsh word for Clinton. They see him as the ultimate winner, as well as the most difficult opponent to face. Even blowhard Limbaugh is piling on. Clinton remains a lightning rod for diehard Conservatives, who will come out from under their rocks and vote in droves if she is the Democratic candidate.
To Mr. Schultz:
I believe the primary focus of this blog is Kingston and Ulster County politics. In fact, the opening tag reads
" 'The Voice of Ulster County Politics' Here you will find the latest news about what's happening in the Kingston and Ulster County political arena."
You can't say Jeremy doesn't have his finger on the pulse of Ulster County Politics. Just because our 20 year old host doesn't have an inside track on national politics, don't blame him for reading CNN.
This blog has the cutting edge in national politics and you only have to read next week's papers and watch next week's news to understand that. Jeremy is right on target with the assertion that Obama is a failed candidate that could not and will not be president. His electoral college standings put him at a lower chance than McGovern had in '72. The fact that he's now resorting to racism to explain away his failure is proof of his impending crash. Obama's nomination virtually guarantees McCain a landslide victory. The superdelegates were created to avoid such failure after McGovern. Hillary will be the nominee. Obama is over.
