Obama headed for big win in Wisconsin?

THIS GUY says the exit polls show hints of a landslide for Obama. But they’re only hints.
If the networks don’t declare Obama the winner within the first few minutes after 8 p.m., he  won’t likely get a landslide and might not even win.
POSTSCRIPT: Early exit polls on Super Tuesday had Obama winning in Massachusetts and New Jersey, but he ended up losing both states by sizable margins.
UPDATE (7:19 p.m.): The polls are still open for another 40 minutes or so, but it looks like Obama wins handily. THIS exit poll stuff from CBS says Obama took 61 percent of the male vote and 51 percent of the female vote. That about covers it, right?

It all depends on how many Republicans cross over to vote for Hillary.

I can understand why Republicans would prefer that their candidate run against Hillary rather than Obama. She would have fired up the GOP base. McCain faces a tall order in trying to beat Obama.

Yep, you can’t beat Hope (Obama platform)….Hope is much stronger argument to elect a president than let’s say…um…reality.

What reality? Four more years of Bush policies? That kind of reality is exactly what the American people have turned against. It’s funny how today’s Republicans scoff at Obama’s positive, uplifting rhetoric. They sang a different tune when Ronald Reagan, he of the famously sunny disposition, declared: “It’s morning in America.”
