Remember Renee from Roots Camp?
Renee Lipson, a Democrat, was looking forward to a “grand sweep” of the major primary states from Clinton. While she didn’t get her sweep, Lipson was pleased by Super Tuesday’s results. The Beachwood resident was particularly “delighted” that Clinton received the majority of delegates in Massachusetts, where Sen. Edward Kennedy had been endorsing Obama for the Democratic presidential nomination.
“That was the high point of the evening for me,” Lipson says.
And our beloved Have Coffee Will Write author:
Going into Super Tuesday, independent Jeff Hess, 52, a Cleveland Heights resident, was hoping for “a big win for Obama and McCain.” If Obama had “locked up the Democratic nomination before the Ohio primary,” Hess would have voted in the Ohio Republican primary for McCain. With no clear Democratic frontrunner, Hess says he’ll be voting in the Democratic primary for Obama.
My state representative Josh Mandel’s (R-17, Lyndhurst) father (unless there’s another Bruce Mandel, in which case, I apologize for the incorrect connection) was quoted too:
Bruce Mandel, 56, of Beachwood is an independent. Prior to Super Tuesday, he noted that he liked McCain, “but if Romney wins the nomination, I will vote for Clinton.”
Mandel is pleased that McCain has now emerged as the Republican frontrunner, but how well Huckabee fared surprises him. “No doubt Huckabee took away votes from Romney.”
If Obama wins the Democratic nomination, Mandel says, “he will pose a stark contrast to McCain, age-wise as well as philosophically. McCain could find him hard to beat.”
And spoken like a true Democrat, who is only 45!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! even she’s getting a shot of cortisone in the back tomorrow:
Jill Miller Zimon, a Democrat, was hoping for “a clear winner on the Democratic side” on Super Tuesday. “Between Clinton and Obama, I am having a terrible time choosing. I would be satisfied with either one,” she says. On the Republican side, the 46-year-old Pepper Pike resident is leaning toward Romney because she’s been hearing “he will be easier for either Obama or Clinton to beat.”
Well! I never. Was 46, thank you.

I personally feel Romney matches (now matched) up better against Obama and McCain matches up better than Clinton.
should be “McCain matches up better against Clinton.”
Yeah that’s what the numbers say but they have been so erratically unreliable this year.
