Geography as destiny?
The campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are signaling where they believe they have the best chance to win by the sites picked for what they hope will be victory rallies Tuesday night.
Clinton plans her primary-night event in Columbus, the capital of Ohio, where polls show her hanging on to a narrow lead, though Obama is closing.
Obama is holding his in San Antonio in Texas, where polls show him with a narrow lead. Obama is also holding his three election-eve events today in Texas.
Clinton is holding a rally this morning in Toledo, Ohio, before two events in Texas.
Some of her highest-profile supporters have acknowledged that she must win both Ohio and Texas to stay in the race, but her campaign late last week sent the message that she would go on if she just won one.

Great points!
BTW guys I found some brilliant/awesome analysis on Obamafs campaign. I havenft seen anything like this mentioned anywhere in the MSM.
Check out gAl-Qaeda Gets eOffendedf h http://savagepolitics.com/?p=162 and gPredatory Lenders and the eRed Phonef h on http://savagepolitics.com/?p=158
Plus check the news article gThe Internc.h Here is the news bit:
gAn additional cut into the emessianicf mesh of Barack Hussein Obama is looming in the distance. gSuper Tuesday 2 turned out to be not only the biggest test for both Democratic candidates during this electoral season, but also the start of the Tony Rezko case in Illinois (fraud and corruption charges). The case has plenty of new prosecution witnesses and novel evidence that are prone to certainly embarrass the Presidential hopeful. Recently the head magistrate in the case, Judge Amy St Eve, declared that the presentation of evidence regarding the finderfs fee ($375,000) which was allegedly skimmed from investment quotas paid by the Illinois state teachersf pension fund, must include the $10,000 which ended up in the Obama campaign through the donation of a man called Joseph Aramanda. The prosecution has found that many of these gredirectionsh of funds to Obama (and others) were done at Rezkofs direct behest and not on their own accord. Additionally it has been found that Mr. Aramandafs son, John Aramanda, was able to land a ehighly covetedf internship in Barack Obamafs Washington Senate office a year after said funds landed in the Senatorfs campaign bank account. As the Times UK reports, neither Joseph Aramanda nor his son have been accused of any wrong doing, and the Obama campaign denies that the internship was eboughtf for with the donation. Nevertheless, what is quite interesting regarding this new development in the Rezko case is, that there was apparently a lot of money from the fslum lordfsf coffers that did not arrive directly from him into the Obama campaign but that were instead gredirectedh through other individuals.
As we all know, Obama has admitted his faulty judgment in dealing with Tony Rezko (he has called it a gbone headed mistakeh), and has claimed to have given all of this edirty moneyf to charity. What he has NOT done is provide true transparency regarding his other business relations involving Rezko and, he has not provided satisfactory information regarding what has happened to all of that money that he DID receive from eother sourcesf and that may soon be proven by the courts to have also come from illegitimate sources. As the trial commences and participants begin to testify, it would be quite interesting to see how much work the Mainstream Media will have to do to keep this story under wraps.h
