Clinton Backer Grasps at Another Straw

from the NY Times (posted 3/24/08):

Senator Evan Bayh of Indiana, who backs Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton for president, proposed another gauge Sunday by which superdelegates might judge whether to support Mrs. Clinton or Senator Barack Obama.

He suggested that they consider the electoral votes of the states that each of them has won.

“So who carried the states with the most Electoral College votes is an important factor to consider because ultimately, that’s how we choose the president of the United States,” Mr. Bayh said on CNN’s “Late Edition.”

 

Hmmm. well that means if Obama is the nominee, both he and McCain will win Illinois in the general election.

But if Clinton is nominated, both she and McCain will win New York.

Yeah, I see how that makes sense Evan!
