Per latest polls, there could be upsets in KY and WV
In the latest Hayden/Doh! poll conducted between now and 5 minutes ago by asking my invisible friends, Hillary is likely to win West Virginia’s primary by elebenty bazillion points tomorrow. Which will gain her 3/4ths of a delegate but will bolster her argument to superdelegates that Obama can’t connect with eighth grade dropouts who marry their cousins and flirt with sheep unless they find out he’s really half-white and has a crush on Mrs. O’Leary’s cow.
The poll also found that:
52% of West Virginians don’t understand why Mexicans aren’t trying to steal their jobs in the coal mines.
63% say the Hatfields had it coming to them.
98% have heard their university has a monorail and 97% think it’s a vaginal cream.
2% think Obama’s 49-state strategy is to coast past West Virginia and try to reduce the Clinton margin in Kentucky so he can declare victory after winning Oregon by 12%, after which, he’ll expend more effort in Puerto Rico just because Yes He Can.
And 38% think bologna sammiches will do just fine for lunch, after which they’ll kick some tofu-eating college hippie elitist ass.
Local rap musician Cleminem summed up West Virginian attitudes as “fuck man, they don’t even get the jokes, so why bother insulting them? They only use the internets for nekkid pictures of well-sheared lesbian lambs and Shari Lewis’ swinging udders.”
Update: What does it mean when it’s titled ‘Clinton Creaming Obama in Kentucky’ ? I mean, ewwwwwwww! It sure sounds sexyist to me, if Obama’s into that sort of thing.

When I went to college across the Ohio River from WVa, there was often references to the short and little known civil war between the Buckeye State and the Mountaineers.
It started, and quickly ended when the West Virginians threw sticks of dynamite across the river and the Ohioans lit the fuses and threw them back.
They make Arkansas and Mississippi look good. Plus, if you flatten it out it’s probably just as big as Texas. I know because I traveled the WVa Turnpike so many times — the only toll road in the US where you have to pay to get off, or they never let you leave.
Kentucky? Prettier, flatter, just as stupidly inbred. (Come on, grass is supposed to be green and the sky blue, except in Kentucky.)
