Good analysis. But I think NCs CD 3 only has 4 delegates.

D’oh, you’re right, that should be Obama 2 and Clinton 2. I’ll correct that right away. Thanks.

There is a growing trend among African American women to identify more and more with the under-represented MAJORITY of WOMEN. I predict that North Carolina will be the first primary where this trend shows up significantly. I notice that — aside from the ppp polling (please note the huge discrepancy between their polling tand the real results in the Pennsylvania primary)– there is the beginning of a rising trend for Clinton. Unless there is another incident which skews the vote at the last minute, I predict she’ll do what Obama did in PA : “catch up” on her opponent’s initially sizable lead and whittle is down to single figures (because Clinton did win by single figures in PA.

Uh huh… take a look at the exit polls, Clinton won only 12% of African American women (which is about the same as has been happening, they vote slightly more for Clinton than African American men, which is still pathetically low).
Sorry to burst your bubble, but Clinton has made no inroads with any of Obama’s strongest groups, that will become obvious when North Carolina votes.
