Good thing you posted that, because we needed some mindless spam to eat up space.

No. A non-sanctioned election doesn't count. Saying you won in practice by yourself in the pre-season doesn't translate into winning an actual game.
Not following the rules disqualifies you. Michigan and Florida disqualified themselves. Obama didn't "forfeit" anything.

Egads.
Her netting 8 out of WV doesn't even make up for the number of delegates Obama has gotten endorsements from in the past 48 hours.
So if we take your predicted winning margin and netted delegates from WV in with the non-pledged delegate endorsements, Clinton will have posted a net -1 in delegates since the weekend.

But that is the point. Obama can indeed win those states, but more importantly can win states Clinton can't which make OH, PA, FL not the make or break wins. It makes the GOP play defense in states they normally can ignore to try and win OH, PA, FL.
The electoral map changes with Obama where we have a cushion nad make it so that OH, FL and PA are NOT make or break states.

Interesting, Dukakis won WV and yet was obliterated in the general. Same with Carter who only won MN, MD, DC, GA and WV.
West Virginia is not the bell-weather the Clinton camp is claiming it as.

FL and MI wrote themselves off by violating the rules and nullifying their primaries in doing so.
