Call it the "Dewey Defeats Truman" headline of the 21st Century. The Associated Press called the state of Missouri for Hillary Clinton around 10:30 PM. Labels: Obama, Presidential_Primaries
NOT SO FAST!
As more precincts came in it became clear this was going down to the wire. By 11:00, Barack Obama was within 5,000 votes. After midnight, results showed Obama winning by about 9,000 votes.
With 3,357 of 3,371 precincts reporting, Obama leads Clinton 403,343 votes to 394,566. That's 49.1% to 48.1% .
Wow.

Just goes to show that every vote counts.. I shocked a Hillary campaigner at the poll I went to by telling her that if Obama didn't win the Nomination I'd vote Republican. Funny part about that is a man walking out of the poll followed up my statement with "Ditto" and walked away. I just don't trust that she will look out for Joe Average. She had her chance to get Universal Health care when Bill was in office. But the Insurance Lobby shut her up by infusing her campaign with cash. that's why I don't trust her.

Hopefully, he'll make up significant ground in Ohio where he's still ominously far behind. Signs look good, but the hard work must now continue. Thank you Missouri.

Hillary Clinton doesn't really love black women or women in general.
Hillary Clinton is still mad at black women and women because her husband was rumored to have cheated with so many black women and women before Monica Lewinsky. Just check out the movie "Primary Colors" that was based on Bill Clinton. Plus, Bill Clinton did decide to move to Harlem, New York close to black women.
Hillary Clinton gets so angry when she thinks about all that she has been through on campaign trails with her husband's rumored infidelity with black women and women in general that she starts crying. Hillary "Kleenex" Clinton.
Hillary will try to fake like she loves black women and women so that she can get the vote from them. However, she really resents that her husband has been rumored to be attracted to so many black women and women in general.
That makes it strange that Congressman Maxine Waters of California supported Hillary Clinton over her opponent. Especially knowing how important the State of California is to Democratic candidates.
Don't worry, Hillary Clinton's anger will explode one day similar to Brittney Spears, but we don't want that to happen while she is President of the United States.
Who knows what she will do after she stops crying because of something Bill Clinton has done?
Say no to Hillary "Kleenex" Clinton!

Anonymous anonymous' post is interesting and that it didn't get censored by the blog manager as did comments about Creg Williams, which didn't reach such scandalous proportions, as does this post.
Is this censorship by color?

Why does everything have to be about race? Can't we all just get along!

Isn't that funny, first anon, because if Obama wins over Hillary I will vote for McCain! If we all think that way, looks like the Republicans are going to pull out an unforeseen victory, whoever wins the Dem nomination.

The SOS site now says the vote total is
Clinton 394,991 (48.0%)
Obama, 405,470 (49.2%)
Looks like provisional ballots are being counted this time.
Will Kucinich ask for a recount?
