Possible factors today
May 6, 2008 by Mary Clyens
Just a few things to keep in mind for today’s Indiana and North Carolina primary:
1. Indiana has no party registration
2. Bill Clinton has been getting very good local press for visiting small towns, especially in North Carolina
3. Obama generally carries states that are less than 6% African American or greater than 17% African American. North Carolina is 22%; Indiana, 9%.
4. Looks like both NC and IN will have perfect weather — in all parts of both states. (Ah, a May primary…)
5. Polls close at 7pm in Indiana, and 7:30 in North Carolina.
6. Clinton was endorsed by the major IN paper; Obama by the big NC paper.
If Pennsylvania is Pittsburgh & Philly with Alabama in between, Indiana is Pennsylvania without any cities.
Plus far more “Operation Chaos” Republicans (the few groups da Billary can still count on for support).
If the Dems allow da Billary to steal this nomination, they deserve to lose the White House, the Senate, and the House — and they probably will get that trifecta.
