    So Hillarity is going to win:

    California
    New York
    Ohio
    Nevada
    Texas (?)
    Pennsylvania

    Is Obama only going to win the FLYOVER STATES?

    I don't think Hillary will win Texas. Despite her small lead right now. The major population centers have not reported as much as they rural and Valley counties.

    Yep.

    The lesser populated areas report first.

    Obama has boxes coming, Hillary may be out of gas.

    Unless the late deciders came out hardcore, then her lead may hold.

    I just rolled my eyes, too. Jon King can be good sometimes, but I can do what he is doing. Pretty easy.

    Only 40% of Harris county has reported and Obama has a 61 - 39 lead. If this holds, Harris county alone will put Obama over the top.

    Trader_Texxx will be humiliated by wasting a vote. :cool:

    The problem is that 14 percent of the precincts isn't 14 percent of the vote. While the number says 14, it's misleading because so many people voted early in places like Houston. More than half the vote count is already in...

    I guess when you are an [first expletive you used to try and insult me], you are used to [second expletive you used to try and insult me]... so why be scared of it?

    By the way... if that's "thinking" keep your thoughts to yourself, leftie.

    In case you don't quite know recent history, the "lesser populated areas" add up to more votes than the population centers...

    What counties are you looking at? Outside of Houston, a vast majority of the vote in big cities (Austin, Dallas) are already in. Meanwhile, only 12 percent of precincts in El Paso are in... 1 percent in Webb... 47 percent in Hidalgo... all those are huge advantages for Clinton. It's not the same as Harris County, sure, but Harris County is the only significant county for Obama where under half the precincts have reported...
