Perspective: Hillary gives ROUSING speech reaching out to womem, before Mother's Day and best 2 states
The video should be available on CNN.com.It should be noted that her biggest loss recently has been among women voters.This should help her immensely both with one of her strongest bases of voters and with fundraising. Moreover, her campaign is...more »

I have to say... I think McCain's got a good point in this particular case, and I am surprised to say it!

I strongly suspect that Clinton's endorsement have caused this bump.

Do you really believe that almost HALF the voters in such a populous state had no preference, especially when major candidates like Obama and Edwards were not on the ballot?
1) No, of course I don't. Don't make such stupid assumptions.2) Unlike you, the guy at fivethirtyeight.com actually answered my question, citing percentages from an exit poll. He also pointed out that some people who voted Clinton preferred Obama, according to the exit polls, and showed that the race would have been very close, as more recent polls indicate as well.
3) Stop harassing people with asshole comments like your last sentence. You aren't accomplishing anything.

I would have been happy to add any reasonably question you wanted to.
There was NO REASON TO BE AN ASSHOLE WITH YOUR FINAL REMARKS.
GOD... You people are FUCKING IMPOSSIBLE to get along with. You sit behind your computers with this vitriol. If you can't answer my polite questions politely, then LEAVE ME ALONE.
