The results were already in before the polls were closed in The Mountain State. Both sides, Obama's and Clinton's knew she was favored by the demographics of West Virginia, middle class, white working class. She said it herself she's attracting this demographic while Obama is struggling with it and is trying to prove her point by staying in the race. She vowed to her supporters to stay until June 3 despite the fact that her campaign is drowned by a 20 million dollar debt and that Obama closed her superdelegate lead 2 days ago. Now he's leading by more than 5. Actually I predicted a huge wave of superdelgate support after North Carolina and Indiana, it has been slower than expected. I guess everybody is being careful and waiting for the last primary in Puerto Rico. How ironic that Puerto Rico has the heavy charge of deciding the outcome of this nomination process but they can't vote for him or her in the general election. Let's face it we know Obama is the presumptive nominee, he's already acting like it, his campaign is unveiling a Fall strategy against McCain. Meanwhile Clinton keeps pushing her agenda, it's still unclear what's in it for her, maybe a V.P spot in the Obama ticket. Democrats call it the 'Dream ticket' but I don't see it happen. There has been too many nastiness during this campaign, I don't think Obama is ready yet to swallow all of it to unite the Party. The longer this process is taking the more divided it gets, we've already witnessed gender and racial divide, it's going to be worse at the Convention.
Stay tuned...
