This will complicate things more...when people vote for a presidential candidate, even if that person get the majority votes, there is actually a seperate group (the electoral college) that actually casts the vote. They almost always go along with the will of the voters, but not always. So even if a person gets the majority of votes, the electoral college can vote for a different person to be Pres. Confused, yeah so am I

"Super Tuesday" is when my Partner's 9 year old son has PE, swimming and football training all on the same day, which, by coincidence, is always on a Tuesday.Overtired and emotional wrote:Let's look forward to Super Tuesday.
Why is this relevant to what's going on in The Cacusses?
I'm more confused than ever now

Super Tuesday is when 22 of the 50 states have their primaries.
Super Tuesday is when the vodka deliveries get to the Caucasas.
Super Tuesday is (work permitting) next week when I go with some of the chaps on a visit to the Leeds Club to try to drink it dry.
Sorry. It's been a hard day.

It may be drivel, but it's not meaningless.
Alan,
No. I am not related to her, as far as I am aware.
Perhaps the guy to her right should be removed and posted on another type of site?
Other Admins may decide to take punative action. I prefer to allow members to moderate themselves where possible.

If nothing else, he is much smarter than to put Clinton on his ticket. My theory is it will be a more conservative white male with considerable military experience that can immediately deliver at least one swing state. If he could find a Dem. with those credentials that could absolutely carry the state of Virginia, it would be "check mate."

Re: Hillary Clinton!!! Surely not?
So here we are , Labour Day 
Obamas running mate heads the Foreign Relations Commitee .
McCains running mate is a 44 yr old brunette , whose vast political experience amounts to 14 months as Senator for Alaska and who asked a few months ago : "What does the Vice-President do ?"
I think It should be very obvious to all , who made the right choice : McCain !!
He chose someone whom he could smoke cigars with

And it is all over. Obama won. McCain lost. And hence Hillary also lost, as she won’t get a go in 2012.
Re: Hillary Clinton!!! Surely not?
It was rather funny watching some of the newscasts, though, as the talking heads desperately tried to make it sound like a race, all the while ignoring the elephant in the room that was the west coast.
We knew within 15 minutes of the polls closing on the east coast that Obama had won, because he had a 103-34 lead that quickly with New York not yet decided (but presumed to be for Obama). California by itself is 55 electoral votes, Oregon is another 7, and Washington is 11. (Pennsylvania, Florida, and Ohio had not been decided at that point, but also couldn't be reliably predicted.) And it would have been a MASSIVE upset of any of those states had gone for McCain, so the election was basically over by 5:15 Pacific time. Yet the talking heads tried desperately to come up with scenarios that could still create tension for their newscasts.
