Obama rebounds in latest Gallup poll
My first blog here, so excuse the formatting.
But after Obama dropping almost daily, this is the first uptick in several days.
Couple this with his 12 point lead in Oregon and his 9 point lead in North Carolina, Obama has to be feeling good about having weathered another month of manufactured bullshit.
Gallup Daily: Democratic Horse Race Neck-and-Neck at 47%

This is based on Gallup Poll Daily tracking
from April 30-May 2, and is the tenth consecutive day the Democratic
candidates have been statistically tied in national preferences. (To

Thanks for giving us a reason to stay positive. I feel like we're going to get our asses handed to us in IN on Tuesday, but I'm holding out hope that all the young people in NC will ensure a substantial victory there.

You'd like to win them all, but no has done that yet. Maybe try not to buy into the frame that Indiana is a must win for Obama, but NC doesn't count, and isn't a must win for the person behind by 160 delegates?
All I care about is the general. Hillary Clinton lost the primary.

Actually I'm pretty sure I heard on the news that Obama had to win every primary in order to win the nomination. So I guess he has lost already. :(

Yeah, Akbar. You've got it wrong. It would be great for Obama to close this our on Tuesday, but he's really in the driver's seat.

That's not so. Neither one of them can win enough delegates to claim victory. The race will be over superdelegates. And from what I hear, Obama's already got that one in the bag.
I'm not worried in the slightest. Hillary is out of it.

You're not paying attention....
Bracak Obama doesn;t need to win every primary...
He's going to win NC, possibly IN, and win OR and MT and ND..... it's over.
