Shocker: Hillary Wins West Virginia
May 13, 2008
Hillary Clinton winning West Virginia is like The Beatles winning the Liverpool vote.
She's a rock star in West Virginia and at this point, she's wining two to one there. Expect that number to grow throughout the evening. Her winning formula once again is white workers making under $50,000 and women. Exit poll information is here.
Look, is it just me or is it a tad bit strange that the "presumptive nominee" of the Democratic Party just got trounced? Sure he didn't compete there but he didn't compete because he knew he was going to lose! It doesn't change the fact that he had no shot in West Virginia.
Clinton has now won more swing states and won six out of the last eight contests.
She's going to close well in the popular vote. The math may work against her but my sense is that she really thinks she can win this nomination. But you and I know that what she really needs is an Obama stumble. She needs to wake up one morning to an "above the fold" headline in the New York Times (or choose your publication) where a new story unfolds. The messier the better for her. Am I right?
