Every pundit I have heard for a month or more has said that Hillary has no chance at all to win and all she can accomplish is to damage the party and help John McCain in the process. Now here we are heading into the West Virginia primary tomorrow and tonight Hillary has a lead in the polls of 60% to 24%. In Kentucky, Hillary has a similar lead of 27%. But even so, the lead that Obama has over Hillary cannot be overcome by big wins in those two states, so why bother? I think that Hillary plans to embarrass Obama in the next two primaries and show the super delegates that “hey, this guy can’t win in November.” He may be ahead in the some of the big population areas where blacks, who overwhelmingly vote for Obama, are a dominant voting force. But when push comes to shove, white middle Americans are not going to pull the lever for this guy and West Virginia and Kentucky are prime examples.
Hillary is betting that by Tuesday, May 20, 2008, after two stunning losses (and probably one big win in Oregon for Obama where the far left reigns supreme) that the messianic one may become mere mortal in the eyes of not only his adoring fans but also the fawning media. She’s hoping for a major case of buyer’s remorse on the part of pledged delegates and still uncommitted super delegates. She also hoping that the Dems will finally realize that they may be on the verge of a stunning loss of staggering proportions in November, a loss that may make both McGovern and Dukakis feel good about their races.
Obama’s relationship with the unrepentant terrorist, Bill Ayers, a 20 year relationship with the loony Rev. Wright, still to come revelations of his Tony Rezko connections in Chicago, an embarrassing endorsement from the terrorist group, Hamas not to mention his total lack of experience will make him unelectable to main stream Americans in the Fall.
