Right wing talking point? A Hillary supporter telling me not to use a right wing talking point! That’s funny I don’t care who you are. I think it was YOU who used McCain talking points in a DEMOCRAT primary. Last I checked the party was called Democrat.

I do think electoral college and electability are important, but I don’t think these polls accurately reflect the nature of the game when we have a candidate and the press gets to start paying attention to McCain. That’s all. You essentially have two against one right now and that is surely affecting polling.

BTW, if you had checked the site (which came to me from a recommendation by Kos), you’d see that these aren’t primary polls, but head-to-head. But if “none of these polls mean jack squat” then I guess this post is meaningless.

By the way, it’s DEMOCRATIC voters, don’t go all right-wing talking points on me and say Democrat.

All I’m saying is right now it looks like OH, PA, and FL are all out of reach for Obama in the general according to all available polling.
I can’t think of a single candidate who ever won a presidential campaign that lost all three states. Hillary also makes MO competitive.

You said the electibility argument, solely, don’t go trying to pretend that the topic was something else.

I think it’s odd that you’d put so much stock in a buyer’s remorse poll (which actually may only reflect a desire to see this contest end) as an argument against Hillary’s electability, but you’d discount actual polls that shows nationally she could win the election against McCain while Obama loses.

Or that you think the electoral college argument is not important.

None of these polls mean jack squat…yet. Hell, McCain hasn’t even been in the news yet has he? LOL.

I’d say the person who has won more DEMOCRAT voters (and don’t even go all Jerome Armstrong on me), more DEMOCRAT caucuses, more DEMOCRAT delegates, and more STATES is the one who gets the nomination.

I personally don’t think there is that much difference in either one’s electability, but I sure have fun watching Hill Shillers go on about it. You guys act as if no Hillary voter will vote for Obama in a general – and perhaps they won’t.

And that current state-by-state polling shows that Hillary has a sufficient lead in enough states to get 291 electoral votes in the general while Obama gets only 243 to McCain’s 269, and would have to win both Indiana and North Carolina in order to still beat McCain.

We’ll need you in November New Jersey! Keep hope alive!
