Wait for it....

Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but it seems like voters who make up their mind in the last 3 days always break for Clinton. I can only assume there are a lot of people out there who flirt with trying something new but then ultimately decide to stick with something familiar.

And yet again, we have to correct the record.
She always wins late-day deciders, even in states like VA where Obama won big. So arguably, over three days, it is not overwhelming that it would break 55-45 although arguably understandable considering the bad news cycles he has had

looks like Hillary may tke OH. I hope BO stays close...

Playing the victim proves to be a winning strategy, yet again. Fortunately, that strategy is sure to be a failure in the long run, and only works in these desperate situations.

"How in the heck do you truly not make up your mind until you walk into your polling place, or even just a day or two before?"

Well, you have to consider that she wins among the very old. They might have a little trouble with short term memory.

Texas Early voting returns for the 5 largest counties.

Clinton 33,401 34.36

Net result of about 110,000 votes in favor of Obama. That will be almost impossible for her too overcome.

Texas done turned Blue! In Obama's favor too!

This is good news....

for...

Echoing others, I ask just who these late-breaking voters are. And furthermore, do we know how many of them there are?

I hope someone will remember that the real story isn't that things are in a dead heat now, but that Clinton's double-digit leads in both big states has drizzled away in a few weeks.

Too much "dailiness" being peddled around here, I think.

wow, those early voting results look great for Obama! Awesome news!

He may again be the net winner in delegates today!

I've said it before, there are only two questions left for the Hillary Clinton Campaign:

1. When (not if) will she concede the nomination to Obama?
2. How low will she go in the meantime?

Good news for Hillary??? Just Wondering.

Union members voted for Hillary in Ohio, even after so much endorsements from Unions for Obama. It is possible for Hillary to get double digit win Ohio.

Hillary's doing very well! This whole emphasis on "winning" and "losing" is so phallocentric. If a man was doing as well as she is, he'd already be the nominee. Just imagine if Obama was the husband of a former President--he'd be leading.

I'm sick of this goddamn coverage. LISTEN PEOPLE! HILLARY LOSING HER 20-30 POINT LEAD IN A MATTER OF WEEKS IS NOT A COMEBACK, IT IS NOT MAKING PEOPLE THINK TWICE, IT IS LOSING BIG!!!

Do the exit poll try to account for the early voters?

Hillary won big among those for whom race mattered. Doesn't that mean she got the racist vote?

Hate to break it to you, Gloria, but Obama is the one who is "leading". As in, "being a leader". Hillary has gone negative and will split this party in two before she does the right thing and concedes. she is too far behind! Sorry. Suck it up, compose yourself, and find something else to do for the next 8 years. How about a Cabinet position?

In re: Ohio.

Were we not told that the latest voter returns would come from urban areas that are Obama territory?

Union members voted for Hillary in Ohio, even after so much endorsements from Unions for Obama. It is possible for Hillary to get double digit win Ohio.

Tweety tells us FEAR TRUMPS HOPE. I'm looking forward to the lawn signs.

My understanding is that exit polls are just day-of. The 800K people who voted early in Texas did not participate as far as I've seen reported.

John McCain clinches the Republican Nomination.

THIS IS GREAT NEWS FOR HUCKABEE!

The "late deciders" are the people who in the end just pick the name they have seen before. They consistently have gone to Clinton throughout the entire season.

The idiot pundits trot out this same lame statistic every single time.

Winning the racist vote is EXCELLENT NEWS!! For HILLARY!!!

I'm an Obama supporter, but I think Clinton is going to clean his clock in Ohio. Hard to really believe that Ohioans are so superficial that they would be persuaded simply by a silly TV ad.

I think there's something deeper going on there. The Bradley effect? Yup. I felt this way about New Hampshire, too. And before Obama began his long winning streak, it was more frequently discussed. Here's an interesting analysis from a favorite blog of mine (I'm in marketing): The Secret Voter in Your Brain.

Key findings:

A couple of professors at the University of Washington have devised a test that might give candidates a clearer idea what they are dealing with because it bypasses voters’ mouths and gets into their heads.

The findings they announced Tuesday suggest polls overestimate support for Barack Obama and underestimate support for Hillary Clinton. They asked voters whom they planned to vote for, and 42 percent said Obama, versus 34 percent who chose Clinton. Then the volunteers took a version of the Implicit Association Test, which requires rapid responses to words or images on a computer screen.

The IAT, which was developed by University of Washington psychology Professor Anthony Greenwald, has a proven record for measuring unconscious bias. The idea is that you make selections before your conscious self has time to screen your deeper feelings.

Clinton came out ahead with 48 percent to Obama’s 25 percent.

Probably not the whole story but, again, Obama's winning streak pushed this discussion out of the headlines. I think it's back.

Sorry, I guess it must be the influence of so many "America is doomed if Obama doesn't get the nomination!" posts.
