Welcome to reality. Mr. Obama may have won majority of the smaller States with some white votes in places like Wisconsin, Virginia, Wyoming and few others. But when it comes to the general election he will not be able to win as many white votes as he has won in this primary and thus giving the Republican and McCain the Presidency.

In this aspect, the Democrats must be careful in selecting a candidate who can win in this coming election. It appears to be that election in the Magnolia State decided based on simply racial line and if that trend is believed to be the case, it will be fatally mistaken by

I am sure there are many factors that account for the White Racial Bais. Could it be that whites started seeing a Black Racial Bais and said two can play that game!!

My grandmother worked one of the polling stations in Southern Mississippi yesterday where many Republicans cast a strategic vote for Clinton but will vote for McCain in November.

I've seen on other boards that the Republican Party is actually sending out emails to Republicans encouraging them to vote for Clinton, thinking they can beat her, but could not beat Obama. I guess they have their nominee locked in, so this is their way to see if they can dirty politic right into a win.

Republicans are simply scared of Obama. With McCain on the ballot I suspect that republican turnout will be less than previous elections. Obama more than any democratic nominee in decades will have a very good chance of turning southern states blue. That he is getting 90% of the black vote in states where at least 1/3 of the population is black can't be ignored. Issues aside, if we are talking just race, who is more likely to go out and vote on election day- the "racist" whites who half-heartedly will support McCain, or an electrified black voter who sees hope and opportunity in electing a great role model for their children? The fact that ditto-heads, Clinton supporters, and racists, were out there voting against him and he still destroyed her (as he has done so in many "cracker" states too) says a hell of a lot about his electibility. Democrats in recent elections have paid little to no attention to Southern states practically giving them to Republicans year after year. This election could be different. I would bet a years paycheck that Obama will be able to turn at least 2 southern states blue over Clinton's ability to win "big states" like Texas and Ohio from the Republicans. I say let the republicans take these states for granted and watch them slip through their fingers! clinton will not be able to do this but Obama will! GOBAMA!

A lot of Republicans are voting for Hillary because they want to keep the fight going with the hope that Billiary will win the nomination, thus they will easily beat her in the general when a sizeable amount of young voters, blacks and others who voted for OB will boycott the election by staying home, or maybe, like me, vote for McCain if OB loses the nomination due to Billary's do or say anything to get a vote dirty tricks.

I read that 24% of Hillary's voters were Republicans. That is obviously a strategic crossover vote and not simply Republicans who intend for Hillary to be president. But the meaning of all this is not easy to divine. If those crossovers go back to McCain in November then Mississippi may easily go Republican. One thing is clear. Hillary cannot carry that state in November. The more interesting question is whether Obama with the strong black vote and the young post-racism voters and the anti-Bush Katrina/FEMA victim Republicans might snatch Mississpippi from the GOP in November.
