Clinton-Obama

Wow, last night's primary was SO exciting! I didn't want to go to bed with 8% of Indiana (Lake County) still out, but Brendon had to be at work this morning so we came home around 1.

I was surprised that Obama took NC by such a large margin and that Indiana was so close. Obama now needs less than 200 delegates to secure the nomination.

Do you guys think Clinton will drop out of the race now or do you think she'll hang on? Any predictions for the democratic nomination or even the November election?

I hope its Mc Cain in November (I also hope he picks a strong younger running mate), If I have to pick a democrat I would rather see Clinton than Obama.

I am not really happy with any of the candidates, but, I think I say that every election.

Since, I didn't run for office and put myself on the line, I need to accept the options that we are given.

I don't think Clinton will drop out. I can imagine her starting to move her stuff back into the whitehouse before the elections are even over regardless of having lost. LOL

I do not see her taking NO for an answer.

It wouldn't surprise me if McCain wins simply because he's the only white male running. Poor reasoning, but wouldn't shock me.

I don't think that Clinton will drop out until at least the beginning of June, and even then I think she will be pressured to drop out by democratic leaders.

I don't know what it is, but there is something about Obama that I just would not feel secure with as president - I think the Rev Wright controversy showed that he can be a little naive about things.

I will probably vote for McCain.

I hope neither will drop out. I think if they want the job, they'd better know the facts and know how to get the job done and campaign for it. I'm like everyone else, I just don't know who I would vote for in November. It's so discouraging.

I'm with you Tink about Hillary moving her stuff in before the election. Can't you just see her pushing poor Laura Bush right out of bed!

I don't know if she'll drop out. She may be pressured to. If not - no way!

I'm an Obama person myself, but I honestly think all 3 of them are good. I'm personally against the war, which McCain is not going to end. Other than that, he's a very good man. Hillary has been good for NY as a Senator. But, I do prefer Obama.

Well I can't believe I am about to say this BUT... I heard Clinton say some things the other day that I really like and agreed with. BUT she is a Demorcat! I will never vote as a Dem. Never have and I don't intend on starting now. My #1 reason being Partial Birth Abortions. I haven't found so much as 1 Democrat poltician that thought it was wrong. They even tried to pass a law not to terribly long ago that would make it legal. I am sorry but that is so wrong. My family has always voted as Democrats. I know to some that might not be a very good reason but that is the way I feel. So truth be told I will always vote down party lines. Call me crazy!

You have to do what you feel is right Michelle! We all do.
