Hope may be the official theme for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, but for Hillary its their mantra. The chances are still pretty slim for Mrs. Clinton, even after her big win in PA, but they have certainly improved some. If she stays competitive in North Carolina and posts wins in Indiana, South Dakota and Oregon then she just might just might whittle down Obama’s lead to less than 100 delegates.
If she pulls in to the convention within striking distance, expect her to pull out all the stops. She will most likely start to push the following points:
- She won the states they must win in the GE in order to beat McCain. Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
- The DNC screwups with Michigan and Florida would have probably put her over Obama in the popular vote and delegate count.
- The only reason Obama wasn’t on the MI ballot was because he pulled out just days before the primary.
- Polls show greater Dem defections to McCain with Obama as the nominee then her.
- Obama’s associations with Rev. Wright and Bill Ayres are hurting him badly with everyone except the fringe of the Democratic party.
This is going to be a hell of a show.
