US 08: Hillary replies to critics

Simply because I found myself on one of Barack Obama's mailing lists, I have from time to time posted his emails on North Coast Voices.

In a spirit of equal time, here is a piece from Hillary Clinton's team on her official website.

 

THE PUNDITS
Hillary Clinton will lose New Hampshire and the race will be over
THE REALITY
Hillary Clinton wins New Hampshire, defying the predictions and the polls

 

THE PUNDITS
Hillary Clinton will lose the big states on Super Tuesday and the race will be over
THE REALITY
Hillary Clinton wins the big states on Super Tuesday – and wins them by double digits

 

THE PUNDITS
Hillary Clinton will lose Texas and possibly Ohio on March 4^th and the race will be over
THE REALITY
Hillary Clinton wins both Texas and Ohio on March 4^th – and she wins Ohio by double digits

 

THE PUNDITS
Despite Hillary Clinton's big victories on March 4th, "the math" works decisively against her

and the race is essentially over
THE REALITY
The math is simple: neither candidate has reached the number of delegates required to
secure the nomination and either candidate can win

 

THE PUNDITS
Barack Obama is substantially ahead in the pledged delegate count; pledged delegates are the

only measure of success; therefore the race is essentially over
THE REALITY 
The candidates are within fractions of one another on delegates; Barack Obama needs super

delegates to win; and a marginal pledged delegate lead does not determine the outcome
