Obama won Guam by seven votes total. Four pledged delegates were at stake. Party chair & vice chair were also selected. Both positions are also superdelegates. Chair is an Obama supporter & vice chair said they'd support whomever won the caucus. Next up: Indiana & North Carolina on Tuesday. Indiana is probably the most interesting of the remaining contests.
Anyone see Bill Moyer's comments on Rev Wright this week? It's a good example of why he is one of my favorite journalists and why I watch his show every week on PBS. If you haven't seen it, check it out.
And if you're interested, he did a great, in-depth interview with Wright last Friday showing something closer to what is likely the real man than I've seen elsewhere.
It's a good thing Stevens went with the majority when he might not have... he got to write an opinion that suggests further action on that issue is possible. Had someone like Scalia or Thomas written the majority opinion, that probably wouldn't have been the case.
I stand by my original assessment of a slim win for Hillary in Indiana and a more comfortable margin for Obama in North Carolina.
As for the IN ID Law, it kept some dangerous 80 year old nuns from possibly committing voter fraud.
"About 12 Indiana nuns were turned away Tuesday from a polling place by a fellow bride of Christ because they didn’t have state or federal identification bearing a photograph.
Sister Julie McGuire said she was forced to turn away her fellow sisters at Saint Mary’s Convent in South Bend, across the street from the University of Notre Dame. The nuns were all in their 80s or 90s.
“One came down this morning, and she was 98. Some showed up with outdated passports. None of them drives.
They weren’t given provisional ballots because it would be impossible to get them to a motor vehicle branch and back in the 10-day time frame allotted by the law, Sister McGuire said. “You have to remember that some of these ladies don’t walk well. They’re in wheelchairs or on walkers or electric carts.”
Well I feel better about the integrity of the ballot.
ahh never mind just saw that cbs made the call. my prediction is Clinton by 6 points in Indiana and Obama by 14 in South Carolina. what does everyone else think?
MSNBC won't call it yet. Says its still technically possible for Obama to win IN if he wins certain counties which have not reported. He'd need to win them by 80 percent, and given there makeup, that is possible.
yeah CNN hasn't called it yet either. ha i have such a huge man crush on Rachel Maddow. seriously though , MSNBC needs to give her a show, perhaps with Chuck Todd as the co host.
this is incredible. the pundits would have liked everyone to believe that Indiana was going to vote exactly as Pennsylvania. how is the Clinton camp going to explain this one?
He is behind by 4% but what is not being reported is there has been problems with voting in Gary and they ran out of ballots and reporting 0 at this time. When that is settled it will lower to 3.
A little fact about Gary, our governer started the voter ID law that was upheld in supreme court. AFTER he did that he closed the dmv in Gary and put it in a small all white town outside of gary then after some complaints opened it up part time. Gary is a large town and the only one of the size with a dmv and the largest democrat town in indiana. And now with little time or means to get there ID THAT HAS TO BE FROM THE STATE OR A PASSPORT
Not only Gary, but much of Lake County as a whole, West Lafayette (Purdue University), and some other places where he'll be at least competitive, like Evansville, are still missing large percentages, if we're to believe MSNBC.
Dudes -- while the odds are very, very slim, MSNBC is reporting that there are about 300k votes still being held up in Lake County, with an estimated release time of about 11:00 est. Lake County IS Obama's territory. This could be Guamishly tight!*
*Kidding, but I just wanted to say Guamishly tight.
Whatever happens in Indiana. She's gonna have a really hard time convincing super delegates to keep this going any longer.
I agree, but it seems that whe will hang on until august. Hillary is the best thing to ever happen to the Republican party. they save the money and she destroys the party for them..

There's no way she can hang on if the supers all start going Obama's way. She needs to live for another election. If she gets too desperate and beligerant, it could end her political career.
