Open primary? With more GOPers than indies? Huh...
Obama seems to be faring much better in rural Indiana than I had any reason to expect.
Which is very good news, since the key to Indiana for Obama to keep Hillary from landsliding in as many districts as possible.
True...although is rural Indiana that different from Kentucky?
Yes. At least central and northern Indiana. Remember that Indiana is still in the Midwest, not Appalachia.
If Obama can hold Hillary to a split in every district with an even number of delegates and get these numbers statewide, he'll hold Hillary to a +3 delegate win. Not bad, and certainly puts a cork in J. J.'s wet dream scenario. Of course IN-9 is the trickiest one where Hillary stands a chance at doing better than a split even based on these numbers, but it also contains Bloomington, that might be enough.
