Latest Montana and South Dakota Primary Polls

Just like the Puerto Rico primary was there really isn’t a whole lot of polls for Montana and South Dakota. According to the stats at Real Clear Politics Barack Obama should win Montana with two different polls having him winning Montana. A poll taken by ARG, American research group has Obama winning by 4% which may be a little low. Another poll done by Mason Dixon has Barack winning Montana by 17%. We’ll go with a guesstimate right in between at 10% for Barack Obama. He has the momentum right now and most likely will wrap thing up tonight. See article below about that!

The most recent polls which were also from ARG have Clinton winning South Dakota by 26% which were taken a couple of days ago. A poll that was taken back in April has Obama winning the state by 12% so this one could be interesting. Not that it matters anymore other than giving the Clintons more reason to try and claim the VP spot on the ticket if they win another state. Again with the momentum of Obama flowing as he gets ready to win the nomination in mind we’ll guess that Clinton wins South Dakota by 15%.

Obama Wins Delegate Votes Clinches Democratic Nomination

The headlines coming out will soon all be that Barack Obama clinches enough delegate votes to be the Democratic candidate for President. Most likely Hillary Clinton as hard as it will be for her will concede sometime tonight or early tomorrow. In other words it’s a wrap and Barack will be the Democratic candidate whether you like it or not.

Nuttv has been pretty unbiased about any of the candidates for President including McCain, Obama or Clinton. No spin here! Yet that is. It will be interesting to see how Hillary concedes and if I were a betting man, which I am by the way I would lay the odds at about 100% that she goes out with class and throws her full support to Barack Obama. Something that needs to be done in our opinion. It’s time to wrap it up for the democratic primarys and the democrats need to move onto the general election.

Will the democratic party be able and willing to unite? I think in the next week if not days we will see what direction that will go in. My guess is that the democratic party for the 2008 presidential elections will be one of the strongest that we have ever seen in the history of the party. Only on one or two conditions though. The condition being that if Hillary Clinton wants the nomination for Vice President Barack must offer it to her. No ifs, buts or whatever. If she doesn’t want to be on the ticket then another way to pull the party together is for Barack Obama to offer Hillary Clinton the Vice President spot on the ticket and to let her turn it down which would pull some of Hillary’s supporters to his side just for making the gesture. Remember she won something like 17 million votes during the primary race.

In my opinion if Barack Obama completely blows off Hillary Clinton for the Vice Presidential slot then the presidential general election will be similar to the last two elections we have had, to close to call. Here is why I’m thinking this. I’ve heard personally from people as most of you probably have that one side or the others supporters won’t vote for the opponent. Meaning I’ve heard a Barack Obama supporter say I will not vote if Hillary Clinton wins the nomination. I’ve also heard people say including my own mother unfortunately that they will not vote this year if Barack Obama wins the presidential nomination for the Democrats. Don’t worry I am working on her and it’s not a racial thing with her. It’s that she is that strong of a Hillary supporter just like hundreds of thousands of others are for Hillary and vise a versa for Barack Obama.

For whatever reason people seem to think no matter what the Democrats will sweep the general election and are pretty much blowing off John McCain. If your one of those people thinking that Barack Obama can do it on his own, without the help of Hillary Clinton you are sooo wrong. The democratic base has to recognize the amount of votes that Hillary won and the supporters she has. She did win swing states that Obama may and most likely will have a harder time winning without Hillary on the ticket.

Can the tow get along after a hard fought campaign for the Democratic nomination which sometimes got a little ugly? Absolutely!!! Do they actually hate each other? No!!! Is there a little bit of bad blood between the two of them? Perhaps but probably a little more so on the Clinton side of the isle. Remember this election was Hillary’s turn in her eyes and her supporters eyes. Three words to those people if you want to have a Democrat in the presidential office come January 2009. Get Over It! Hillary lost and now is the time for the democratic party to unite. Unite meaning a Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton ticket for the democrats. Anything short of that ticket and the Republicans will be smiling. All just an opinion and remember the source, nuttv which is normally clueless but pretty close to being right a lot of the time.

That said Congratulations to Barack Obama for winning the democratic nomination to run for President. Congratulations to all those who voted for the first African American to run in the general election under the Democratic party ticket. Be proud because this is a milestone that will go down in the history books. If the ticket is Obama and Clinton it will also be another one for the history books when and African American and a Women are elected to the white house. Enough said!!!

Latest Puerto Rico Polls Results

There isn’t a whole lot of information to find on the Puerto Rico polls for the primary for today. We did read on a few different sites that Hillary Clinton according to a Research & Research poll and is leading Obama by 13% in the polls.

With the last 3 primaries winding down Hillary Clinton won’t be able to catch Barack Obama with the primary delegates but the super delegates could still put her in reach of Obama. That’s not going to happen though and even with the decision that was made yesterday with the democratic party on what to do with the Florida and Michigan delegates in which Clinton picked up several votes it still isn’t going to happen.

One thing about the Puerto Rico primary today that may help Hillary Clinton out that is if enough people come out to vote, Puerto Rico may be able to give Hillary the lead for the popular vote over Barack Obama. That should be pretty interesting to see if it happens and if enough people come out to vote in Puerto Rico to give Clinton the lead in the popular vote across the country. If she can win the popular vote it’s going to be tough for Obama not to pick her as his running mate for Vise President in our opinion. Of course with Puerto Rico not being able to vote should the popular vote even count for Hillary’s numbers? Check out the election t-shirts below!

Political and Election T-Shirts and Sweatshirts

Our prediction is Hillary Clinton will win Puerto Rico by 26 percent of the vote. We think the polls for Puerto Rico may be a little low because she has done a lot of campaigning there and Barack hasn’t done much there.
