Puerto Rico Primary

It's finally here!!!

Interestingly their exit polls are showing a 39% approval rating for George Bush!

Do you think we could get him to move there?

One can always hope can't they...............

Ut oh!!

MSNBC reported that they are expecting a low vote turn out in Puerto Rico!


What HAPPENED???

Hillary has been down there for WEEKS and Chelsea and Bill have been down there for longer----

OH------That's right--------they don't give a shit about the 'INSPIRATION' thing!

They don't see any need to ENERGIZE the voters! Just allowing them to touch their hands should be good enough!

If it stays like that Obama will be about 40 delegates away from the total needed and Hillary will pick up about 20 more delegates than Obama.


that's if the supers from there split according to vote totals...

The Clinton campaign was expecting over a million to vote innPuerto Rico, but only 300,000 voted. So no amazing surge in her popular vote.

Did you see the crowd in South Dakota at Obama's speech?

Watch the little crowd Hillary has.

If she couldn't get more than 400,000 voters out to support her then her "popular vote" argument gets a bucket of water thrown on it.

I think chuck Todd said that she needed 600,000 voters to turn out and a 20 point win to get the popular vote margin in all different formulas.

Hillary simply does not seem to inspire any part of the electorate except her lunatics. (which are about 5-10% of her voters.

If Obama would not have INSISTED with twice a day emails to all of our groups that we NOT go to DC----they would have had to close the damn streets down to accomodate the crowd!
