I want to tip my hat to the Hoosier state. I honestly didn't have that much faith in Indiana. It's good to see this race being so close. Even though NC gives out the more delegates, the media had to focus on IN because they knew Hillary would win it. Well, if this is the state that "counts," Hillary is in some trouble.

THANK YOU, INDIANA!
YES, WE CAN!!!

Default Victory for Obama in Indiana

Even though it appears like Obama will lose Indiana, it was CLOSER than Hillary wanted. Indiana is the Hoosier state, full of hicks, many rural working-class, uneducated whites. Just the right kind of demographics for Hillary. She was expected to win the state, and win it big. But it appears like she may beat Obama by only 4 points....a victory for Obama.

Hillary needed to win Indiana BIG (>10 points). Hillary needed to make a respectable showing in NC, but she was ANNIHILATED there. So much for her so-called surge by the Hillary-skewed media.

Time for Hillary to CONCEDE. Obama the clear preference now.

But she's on a winning streak (of one)! I stopped paying attention to the MS when they said (and some continue to say) that Clinton won Texas.

Default Watch out for Obama

Doesnt really matter at this point, pretty much common sense that Obama will beat Hillary and most likely fool the American public into the Whitehouse!

Hopefully Obama can helps these poor Hoosiers become elite,educated pinheads like yourself. Little do you know, but these poor,uneducated hicks will have play a role in the general election-still not enough elitists like yourself to turn this into an Obama route. BTW, it didn't take a Bachelors and Masters degree for me to figure you're an arrogant,divisive tool. Before you slam me as uneducated or living in a trailer park like one of your lib buddies did, I do have a Bachelors and a MS, and do quite well.
