So how do you feel tonight?

Let's see how everyone is feeling.

•  elated!

  It's about over.

  by Robinson Eaton on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:34:18 PM PDT

  •  I was going to ask

    Why is everyone elated?

    by xeju on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:35:19 PM PDT

    •  Hillary has lost her last chance to make it close

      NC was a blowout and IN closer than many expected.

      it's a big win for Obama. There are no sizeable states left and this provides plenty of cover for superdelegate endorsement.s

      by LearningCurve on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:38:31 PM PDT

      •  The media cycle is his, that's for sure

        Hillary won't get to make much of any speech tonight because of the late returns.

        And who the hell cares what she has to say right now, anyway? Sorry, but it's Obama's night.

        by droogie6655321 on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:39:43 PM PDT

        •  She's not giving up

          She's claiming victory in IN and saying it's the "tiebreaker."

          by RFK Lives on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:41:01 PM PDT

          •  Yeah...

            And Lieberman was in a three-way tie for third place. Pfft.

            "Tiebreaker." One of these days she's going to run out or artful euphanisms to describe her campaign's lack of progress.

            by droogie6655321 on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:42:20 PM PDT

            •  Joementum!!

              she's got it now.

              by shademar on Tue May 06, 2008 at 08:21:36 PM PDT

            •  What she needs is not

              euphanisms or even euphemisms, but euthanisms.

              by not a kid no mor on Tue May 06, 2008 at 09:36:48 PM PDT

      •  Hillary is making Rev. Wright look Serious now!

        seriously... she pulled out the lame tie breaker crap when Indiana could still goObama's way?

        Gary, Stunt hillary now... Drop 45,000 Votes for Obama just as she hits the crest.

        by Steven R on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:40:10 PM PDT

      •  Not according to her!!

        by empathy on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:41:27 PM PDT

      •  And living in Oregon

        I'll tell you the results will be in the North Carolina realm. Montana will probably go to Obama as well. And as I'm writing this Clinton is claiming Indiana victory and shilling for dollars.

        by Robinson Eaton on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:42:01 PM PDT

    •  Lanny Davis makes the world smile.

      by Windowdog on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:39:19 PM PDT

    •  Hillary's run has been stopped in it's tracks.

      and Obama is closer to the nom.

      Of course, isn't over yet.

      God, I wish it was January already. Is that a bad attitude?

      by rini6 on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:39:33 PM PDT

      •  Hillary speaking now:

        "Full speed on to the White House!"

        by aitchdee on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:40:54 PM PDT

        •  and asking for money

          by empathy on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:41:53 PM PDT

          •  She wants money

            Haha she wants the chunk of change that the American people will be saving from her grand gas tax holiday.

            by kduffie1 on Tue May 06, 2008 at 08:05:23 PM PDT

        •  I can't stand her at this point

          We'll have to drive a stake through her heart.

          by RFK Lives on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:42:09 PM PDT

    •  Cuz Billary is speaking and just pointed

      out she's working hard towards her run for president in 2012,is this some horrible FATAL ATTRACTION nightmare?

      by Dirk Thrust on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:45:40 PM PDT

    •  I checked off "disappointed."

      Oh, not because of the results in North Carolina or in Indiana.  It's because of that no-good catcher for the Minnesota Twins, Joe Mauer, who broke up the no-hit bid of Gavin Floyd of the Chicago White Sox with one out in the ninth inning!

      Hey, they don't call politics America's pasttime.  Senator Clinton will come to her senses in due time, and Barack Obama will be elected President come November.  So don't fret.

      ksh01 still dances....

      by ksh01 on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:39:24 PM PDT

  •  Indeed, the media is finally being sane...

    For whatever reason, the math of this whole thing is finally beginning to sink into the talking heads.  Nothing really changed tonight, but I gather they just felt she needed one more nail in the coffin.  As goes the media, so goes the superdelegates.

    And for the record, when Rahm Emmanuel declares, it's officially over.

    by sterno on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:37:01 PM PDT

    •  They are acting "sane"...

      ...because they see now how their Operation Rev. Wright blew up in their faces so they are trying to sweep their Rev. Wright fiasco under the rug just like they have swept their propaganda generals under the rug.

      by wyvern on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:40:16 PM PDT

    •  so interesting to hear the pundits changing

      their tune. Been a long time since they talked so nice about Obama.

      Guess they don't want to miss the train...

        As well, but I'm both a remarkably good drunk-typer (practice, maybe?) and also a little OCD about my spelling while posting tipsy and thus a judicious user of the backspace key :)

      another while I await the Indiana results.  Can't watch Hillary, sorry.

      by susan in sc on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:43:14 PM PDT

  •  Content.

    I'd be happy with a Obama victory in IN and will reserve my feelings of elation for the day Hillary concedes the nomination to Obama.

    This primary began with hope and optimism - on all sides - but under Hillary's direction degenerated into one of the ugliest Democratic nomination fights in a VERY long time. Hillary brought the Nixon-Atwater-Rove playbook into the Democratic Party, which is sort of like biting off your opponent's ear - it's just not acceptable practice, and she deserves to lose on that basis alone.

    Once she has lost, I will finally feel elated.

    I feel good!

    by Hudson on Tue May 06, 2008 at 07:39:12 PM PDT

  •  It's over--results from suburban Chicago

    Lake County (Illinois) and Will County (Illinois)--working class Chicago suburbs--voted 60-38 and 62-36 for Senator Obama. If Lake County (Indiana) follows that trend, Obama will win the Democratic Primary.

    Just knowing da Billary are history makes the entire election season a winner.  That's how low they've sunk.

    No matter what happens in November.

    Check out, for example, the National Journal Political Stock Exchange.

    He started the night at about 78% chance for the nomination, and at the moment he's trading at about 87% chance.

•  Introducing Hillary

  first guy-- we won despite being outspent with Illinois right next door.

  Now Evan Bayh-- keeps refraining "Its not tied anymore" -- like Indiana put her over the top. Reality just wont sink in.

•  So strange to see 1 vote / 100% of the vote and..

  It's my vote.

  Scary, the awesomeness of the responsibility.

  (BTW, kos is wrong. HRC should have dropped out last month.)

•  Happy

  Elated will be when the democratic nomination is sealed, Clinton has officially conceded, and we can focus our collective energy on McCain.

  Or after I take a shot of JB if Obama wins Indiana tonight - whichever comes first.
