As we mentioned in the previous post, the upcoming March 4th Ohio Primary looks to be one-sided as McCain will probably salt away the nomination by then.
But the real fun is going happening on the Dem side. As Billary and Obama are about even in delegates and it seems the upcoming primaries will be split, it looks like Ohio could turn into a battle royal.
Let’s look at the breakdown of support:
In Hillary’s corner: The Establishment, Gov Strickland, older, traditional Dems
In Obama’s corner: Ohio Black Caucus, Netroots, MoveOn.org, and that crazy hippie woman who was crying over Obama’s left shoulder on Super Tuesday. C’mon, you know what I’m talking about.
Ring the bell Apollo…ding…ding.
Still waiting to put the Marc Dann endorsement in a column….
It appears the contention between Obama and Hillary is quite overblown. They are in the same ballpark, but the Republicans are playing different sports. However the point is moot because people help their nose and voted for McCain. It looks like next year we will be inaugurating Obama or Hillary or perhaps both. Hopefully it gets competitive but it doesn’t look like it.
