O'Bama will be at polling places in Northern Virginia, a speech in DC and then on to MD today.
Where is Hillary? She's left the area for Texas. Typical Clinton sneaking out of the area!

There was no point in her staying with Obama having a 15-point margin.

If I was losing I would be staying in the area and trying to rally the votes. Not running away.

Which is why you'd be losing in the first place. :))

Virginia is not a majority black state. It is full of soccer moms, NASCAR dads and Hispanics. Based on what everyone has been saying, Hillary should win Virginia in a walk. She won't. Hillary is done.

What state is majority black? Majority black state's don't exist in this country.

40% of black voters in VA primary. It is less than MD and DC though.
Given 9 out 10 African Americans have voted for Obama, that is 36% right there alone. It will be a challenge for Hillay.
Just voted for Hillary this morning. I feel good!

This seems to be a similar situation we faced 8 years ago with Bush and Kerry. Clinton, like Kerry, is the lesser of two evils. Obama will drown if elected into office - his abilities are capped as a Senator. There is a difference between a politician, although Clinton falls short, and a preacher (or a Dr. King want-to-be). The United State is obsessed with popularity, celebrities in this country influence our decisions greatly. Obama is making himself into a celebrity to acquire votes - the 1940s have passed, what he has to say now is culture shock not strategy.

I wasn't going to bother, but I'll stop by the polls today and vote to offset yours.

Former Presidents with less political experience than Barack Obama before entering office...
Abraham Lincoln
George Washington
Former Presidents with more experience include:
Richard Nixon
LBJ
Herbert Hoover
Warren G. Harding
James Buchanan
Franklin Pierce
Andrew Johnson
Jimmy Carter
John Quincy Adams
And other various bad Presidents.
Other people with more experience include:
Donald Rumsfeld
Dick Cheney
Condoleeza Rice
Karl Rove
My point being the experience isn't everything. Sometimes honesty, integrity and a willingness to work with others are important too. These are attributes missing from both Hillary Clinton and John McCain.

Over at TC Williams this weekend, there were lots of folks stuck outside. When Obama finished up inside he came outside and spoke to the crowd with a bullhorn for about 5 mins. Thanks for thinking of us little guys. I would love to see Hillary do that.

I just Obama'd all over Hillary.
But I wish they'd just join tickets and get it over with. It would be a slam-dunk for DEMS. -§

Obama does talk with the little guys at his rallies, Hillary seems to spend most of her time at big banquet events. Surprised that Hillary is out of money.
In her Ad's she is saying she has 34 years experience? How misleading!

Obama has midgets at his rallies?!? Cool, it reminds me of that politician in O' Brother who used to tour around with a midget. It might make me rethink my vote tonight. I have not seen midgets in his advertisements. I might have to get out to a rally to see the midgets in action. Thanks for the post.
