Hillary eeks it out
« on: January 09, 2008, 08:10:58 AM »
The news is going overboard on Hillary.

I think what they are truly missing on is this:  The was the leader, by double digits for months.  For her to win by 3% points is hardly reason to celebrate...she still has problems with national polls showing her lead shrinking in many areas (Obama is up 13% over her in SC, for example).

With 1% of the population represented so far, it's going to get interesting.

...and spells trouble for the GOP. They don't have anyone in the race that can energize the party more than Clinton.

I agree with you there, LePaul. Still too early in the race, IMHO, to shout victory.

I find it disappointing that Clinton is doing so well.

I would vote for the other 2 over anyone from the gop hands down,  But if it is Clinton, I may have to vote for the GOP

I agree LP, the media makes it out as if Hillary just won by 30 rather than 3.0, maybe their printer is old and the decimal point got smudged

Obama had a MUCH bigger victory in Iowa and they make it sound like she beat him just as badly in NH. I think when Edwards drops out and endorses Obama, he will sweep the rest of the states. I think the Edwards supporters will side more with Obama than Hillary.

I would petition the government to change your state motto to "roll over and take it up the arse"

All the Mass-holes have moved into Filth's state and changed it dramatically.  Wouldn't be surprised if the state motto is changed in the near future.
