Clinton Pours Money Into South Carolina

The Hill:

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) has more than tripled her campaign spending in South Carolina, taking aggressive action in a state political experts call a "must-win" for Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) because of its high percentage of black voters.

While most attention has focused on the race between Clinton and Obama in Iowa, and to a lesser extent New Hampshire, competition between the two Democratic front-runners has quietly intensified in the Palmetto State since the end of June.

Clinton just flip flopped on Driver's License to illegals. She flip flopped on the issue because of pressure. That is why she cannot be trusted to deliver on what she says she would deliver, because she does not stand on principle. She would cave in to the special interest groups just as fast.ust flip flopped on Driver's Licenses.

It matters little how much she spends. Billery is too compromised to get the brass ring.
She needs to bow out to better canidates such as Biden, Dodd, and Edwards.

If the Republicans spent this much money, everyone would say, "See, the Republicans just buy their elections from rich people."

Hmmm, no mention of Edwards....oh ya this comes from "The Hill". No wonder, they are afraid of Edwards and down play him every chance they get. Watch them on C-span, you'll see.

Iowa is a three-way race - she'll either win it or she won't...nothing settled.

New Hampshire is hers to lose - she's a favorite neighbor...again nothing settled unless she loses.

Should she make it to South Carolina, it may be her make or break moment...is it any wonder she's pouring money into SC?
