So, since Obama's not campaigning in WV and KY, does that mean he gets half the delegates?

Just asking...

Interestingly, though, Obama's saturating WV with teebee ads, although not deigning to actually campaign in the state.

Hey, and funny thing: The OFB are always insisting that SDs need to vote their districts -- when their districts vote Obama. But WV's going for Hillary big time, yet Jello Jay's going for Obama. And from the OFB? *** crickets ***

Oh, well, the "new kind of politics" ain't beanbag in the exact same way that the old kind of politics wasn't, eh?

Why wouldn't he get all the delegates?

The for hold for Puerto Rico as well. Then all Hillary delegates are forbidden from voting. (And then the whole country because he is the one.)

WV is in the Pittsburgh media market so they were inundated with ads from both candidates during the PA campaign.

Is there anyone left in the English speaking world who hasn't seen and heard enough to make up their minds?

WV poll--

By amberglow on Sun, 05/11/2008 - 1:08am

'... less than one-quarter of likely Democratic primary voters are planning to vote for him. (Hillary Clinton leads by 43 points overall.) Less than 20 percent of white voters say they support Obama. Even among young voters, usually a demographic that belongs to Obama, Clinton leads by 35 points. ..." -- http://www.slate.com/id/2175496/
