Record Crowd At Obama Oregon Rally: 75,000 People

 

As the Democratic primary battle looks to be coming to a close, Sen. Barack Obama was greeted by a record-turnout crowd in Portland, Oregon yesterday, estimated at 75,000. According to the NYTimes.com, the rally took place on the banks of the Willamette River, where even more people floated around in their boats, in an attempt to hear the Senator speak.

 

According to RealClearPolitics.com’s count, Obama leads Clinton in Oregon by 10.8-percent, while Clinton has a 29.6-percent lead in Kentucky. Both states hold their primaries tomorrow.

 

That said, Obama holds a 159 pledged delegate lead over Clinton, with his margin increasing to 181, when declared superdelegates are included in the count. After Tuesday’s primaries, Obama is expected to earn the majority of total pledged delegates available from all contests this primary season, making it impossible for Clinton to catch-up in pledged delegates.

 

Sen. Clinton’s only chance at securing the nomination is overwhelming and unprecedented support from the remaining, undeclared superdelegates. But something tells me that’s not going to happen.

    Your language is shrewd and hateful. Cut it out, and speak with some intelligence. Otherwise, don’t bother commenting at all.

    Race has nothing to do with why Obama shouldn’t be president…he hasn’t had to answer any REAL questions about his policies or what he stands for because the media absolutely loves him. When he gets the nomination and actually has to start talking I think a lot of people will change their minds. So why don’t you guys think about that stuff before acting like racist assholes
