Even as she faces pressure from some to call her White House bid quits, Hillary Clinton holds a commanding lead in West Virginia, according to a new poll released Friday.

Clinton has a 43-point advantage over Obama, 66 percent to 23 percent, according to a new survey from the American Research Group.

The poll was conducted entirely after Tuesday's primary results, and carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.

The poll suggests Clinton’s white, working class base seems to be holding firm for her — at least in West Virginia, where that demographic makes up a substantial portion of the Democratic electorate.

West Virginia, one of the six contests left in the Democratic presidential race, votes next Tuesday.

Now, Upton, I know what you will say... West Virginia doesn't count because it doesn't have a huge uneducated black population... Am I right?

It might be possible for Hillary to catch Obama with regards to the popular vote... She is favored to win WV by a 40 to 50 point margin, and I wouldn't be surprised if she won with a 60 point margin... Also, she should do the same thing in Kentucky... Oregon will be close, however, WV and Kentucky are Hillary land...

Pne more thing, if Michigan and Florida are somehow added to this equation, Hillary has the lead in pledged delegates and popular vote...

Maybe she can't catch Obama's pledged delegate lead, however, she can still win the popular vote, and this should be enough to allow the "Super's" to stay with the will of the people when selecting Hillary...

Go back and do the Math! even with MI and Fla counted.......Hillary cannot catch up! By the way MI and Fla will not put over take the pledge delegate lead by 110. For Hillary to win she needs to win 75% of the remaining Delegates......IT AIN'T HAPPENING BUDDY.

Hillary is tooooo polarizing! Why do you think she taken $11 million out of her own pocket to just pay off her debt to the vendors!!!!!!

If Hillary can win as you say.......where are all the donors? Hillary had to dip into her own pocket to the tune of $11 million b/c she is not electable!

Point is, why didn't the voters from small town rural America not donated enough money so Hillary need not spend $11 million dollar of her own MONEY!

Why didn't the voters in PA, N.C., and INDIANA all poney up to give Hillary $11 million bucks!!!
