I didn't know the voting would take place today! I forgot to record CNN. Oh well.

EDIT: I'm sure most people have seen this one by now, but still:

the fact that polls point that Obama and not Clinton can defeat McCain should be a terrific boost for Obama support.

yeah, that and the fact she donated herself 5 million dolla to herself shows she's pretty desperate and will do what it takes.

I heard about this while driving back from work today. Do you think a new campaign manager could really have that much of an impact in her campaign?

Ditching the campaign manager is the political equivalent of firing the kicker.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

Well, that must have just been a cry for attention, since according to CNN she still has plenty of money left. A lot more than Obama, that is.

Wait, were you this interested in the 2004 election? The one that could have dramatically reduced the damage caused by the Bush administration? That one was a lot more important than this one, where all the front runners are pretty much ok. (Nevermind that Bush Jr. was pretty ok in 2000, and then circumstances changed and resulted in this trainwreck)

oh, he was interested.

he voted for Bush.

in that election where it was not 100% a certainty one party would win, as opposed to this one where even Sean Hannity said the Democratic party would have to try to lose in order not to win.

so yeah don't accuse Truth of maybe riding bandwagons and not having the most political sense because then he'll accuse you of being...a...apathetic...

anyway I was thinking these Dem vs McCain polls have the huge flaw that the ones who participate these polls have the following mentality:

Guy is an Obama supporter. He's also all democrat.
He is asked who would he vote in a Clinton vs McCain scenario.
Guy says McCain, just to make Hillary look weaker against him and give Obama more arguments to win his candidacy.

Same thinking works with a Clinton supporter.

The difference is that polls also point out that there are much less Obama dislikers than Clinton dislikers, so there is where the difference lies.

I agree. McCain has essentially locked up the nomination and that comes with a huge boost in all polls, including head to head polls like Clinton vs McCain. McCain is pulling better numbers than he will when one of them gets the nomination.

I was also 18 years old thanks.

I'm getting tired of you accusing me of being a bandwagoner tex, i've been an obama supporter since september at least (when hillary was still considered the presumptive nominee). And of course this is more important than 2004. We have a MUCH BETTER CHANCE of winning this election obviously, the republicans are divided this year we can make inroads and hold the senate AND the presidency, that is huge.

John Kerry is also more similar to Hillary Clinton than Barack Obama (He voted for the war just like she did).

I am of the opinion that Obama is the most important candidate we've had come around in fifty years at least. I'm extremely interested in the Obama campaign, and it's not like I haven't made....... avatars.... about other things I was extremely interested in.
