WASHINGTON - Sen. Barack Obama was projected to add to his string of recent victories with a substantial triumph over Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in Virginia’s Democratic presidential primary, NBC News reported Tuesday.
In the Republican primary, NBC said the race between Sen. John McCain and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee was too close to call.
Voters in Maryland and the District of Columbia also were going to the polls Tuesday.

With 168 delegates at stake on Tuesday, Obama hoped to build on the lead that he has gained on Clinton in the past week in NBC News' delegate count.
In polling place interviews, more than eight in 10 voters in Virginia and Maryland said the country is ready to elect either a black or a woman to the White House.
Blacks made up more than a third of the Democratic electorate in Maryland, slightly less in Virginia. Obama, hoping to become the first black president, has consistently polled over 80 percent among African-American voters in primaries this year.

I love all the arrogant Osamafags beating their chests on /n/. Expect the imageboard to drown in tears when Hillary pulls out huge wins in the states that actually matter, like Texas and Ohio. Of course, the funniest part is that they'll end up choking down a mountain of crow and then going to VOTE for her in November. Once you pop the delicious Dem top, you just can't stop. Even if the last bite is a little less appetizing for college going Changefags.
ITT: A bunch of retards think that the VA/MD/DC primary says anything other than how much this area HATES the Clintons.

>>684985 Exact same thing as on the other side with the closer than expected Huck results in Virginia. It's just a measure how badly McCain is hated by conservatives.
The only difference is that there are no good candidates left on the GOP to pose a real challenge to McCain, and more importantly, the media wants to keep propping up the Hillary and Obama show for a few more months since the negro-woman factor boosts ratings.

Democrat here. Will vote for McCain before Billary.

>>685005 >It's just a measure how badly McCain is hated by conservatives. Exit polls show that 75% of republican voters in Virgina would be satisfied with McCain as the nominee.
Compare this to only 60% of Democratic voters who would be satisfied with Clinton.
The "McCain Haters" are a very small minority. Nominate Clinton and watch the republican base solidify and the independent voters come out in droves to vote for him.

>>684954 You do realize that delagates are appointed proportionally, right? And that even if she does win Ohio and Texas, it will be by a very small margin?
Obama will win more pledged delegates because he is winning handily in the smaller states while Hillary is winning by small margins in the larger states. Hell, she only won by 10 percentage points in her "home state" of New York. If you don't think this will come down to the DNC, you're fooling yourself.

another democrat here, do not want Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton. Will vote republifag if I have too, even if it's McCain fries or Huckafail. Hilary will destroy the democrats which is hilarious since most democrats think that they are guaranteed to win this time around.

He doesn't believe in abortion rights, evolution, government education, probably racist, and has disastrous economical ideas. But he has WAY more support than Gravel, and despite popular belief he is not out of the race; but here's the clincher:
HE'S THE ONLY ANTI-FUCKING-WAR CANDIDATE IN THE ENTIRE FUCKING FIELD, WHO IS EVEN MARGINALLY KINDA BUT NOT REALLY ELECTABLE!
That's why I'm voting for that backward motherfucker.
Wanna know who he is? Here's a hint.

>>685180 It's also not a good policy. His replacement idea is, frankly, ridiculous, and rather misleading. What they call a "23% sales tax" is really a 30% sales tax. If you buy a 10 dollar item, you would pay a 3 dollar tax, but since 3/13 ~ 23%, they call it a 23% tax. Plus the fact that such a tax wouldn't even cover drastically reduced governmental spending.

Nice to see Obamafags have no real principles and don't know what their candidate stands for besides CHANGE. How the hell do you go from Obama so effortlessly to McCain, just because Hillary might be the nominee? If I were an Obamafag, I'd at least throw my vote at a third party candidate instead of an older, more war-like version of Hillary just because he isn't...Hillary.
