Why can’t the “presumptive nominee” close the deal?
Why can’t the “presumptive nominee” play in West Virginia? Barack Obama not only can’t play in this swing state, but he’s getting shellaced, even though he out spent Clinton yet again.
Why can’t the presumptive nominee” win these big swing states? It’s not like he’s not got a presence.
In the face of grim poll numbers, the Obama campaign has attempted to dismiss today’s outcome despite the fact that Sen. Obama has outspent us on advertising, has more staff in the state, and more than double the number of offices. – Clinton Campaign
Oh right, everyone in West Virginia are racist. That’s the comments I’m getting,
as well as the emails. How proud Obama’s team must be with this reaction.
According to CNN, the governor of West Virginia said Obama has a lot of “repair
work to do.”
Guess what, Mr. Hope has “repair work to do” all across the Democratic
party, especially with women and other Clinton supporters, but a lot of lunch bucket Democrats, of all colors, too.
It’s time for superdelegates to think long and hard about who can win in November. Clinton keeps winning states Democrats need against John McCain. Obama’s way to victory in November depends on reinventing the electoral map. It’s risky at best.
This is a huge victory for Clinton. Against all odds the voters ignored everything coming at them and ignored the pro Obama press. West Virginia voted for Hillary Clinton, but they also turned away from the “presumptive nominee.” Wake up.
