Close, but he is at minimum in the running for those states.
February 14, 200818 yr The super delegates will decide this race.................and the Clinton's will win because they wield the most political power. This race will get very, very ugly before it is decided.:fight:
February 14, 200818 yr The superdelegate position is far from decided. It's very possible that, if Obama finishes the month winning by the same margins as last week AND has a competitve showing in Ohio/Texas, the party could coalesce around him. Lots of those superdelegates are going to be on the ballot in November, and a good part of their decision is who is best to lead the ticket... and they're going to be reminded what happened to Congressional and Gubernatorial Democrats when Clinton was in office.

What does the bolded mean?
February 14, 200818 yr Author What does the bolded mean? They lost!!! For the first time in years the republicans became the majority in the house and senate I believe and lost the lead of Governors in the nation.
February 14, 200818 yr Author As far as Michigan and Florida as I posted a couple of weeks ago in another thread, I can't wait to see "Clinton v. DNC" and then "Obama v. DNC/ Clinton" I think Mrs. Clinton thinks Florida and Michigan are her ace in the hole. She will start raving about how those good democrats in those two states didn't get their fair say and they have been cheated out of having a vote. The rhetoric will becoming fast and furious in the coming weeks in regards to this whole issue.

Politics is funny in many ways. While Dems lost much control after 1998 & Bill Clinton, the same thing has started to happen after GW & that could carry over into the general election. The funny part is that many many people will end up voting against someone instead of voting for anyone. I firmly believe this same thing happened in our latest gubernatorial race.
