I think it's very telling how marginalizes states in which she loses. Obama is very gracious and thanks his supporters even in states where he lost. I've never seen Hillary do that. Instead, she's on a plane to the next state. How bout thanking all the voters who braved the cold weather and lousy traffic to come vote for you?

No problem Hillary?

Then why am I reading that your top supporters wavering?

New campaign manager needed?

Keep talking, Hillary. You are dispelling the myth of your own intelligence.

The Clintons are supposedly campaign geniuses, but this supposed newbie has got them on the ropes, and in their own party! If you are so smart, Hillary, then why are you losing?

She is playing the short game, hoping for a knock out blow. Before it was New Hampshire, then it was California, now it's Texas. Meanwhile, Obama is running up the score with states that "don't matter". He is outsmarting her by playing the long game, proving that he is more capable of running a nation than she is.

Even if she does win Texas, she is only saving herself for a day. If she abandons the field in February, Texas may be her last stand at the Alamo.

Hillary: "...you know, my husband didn't win any of these caucus states. You know, he didn't win Maine. He didn't win Colorado. He didn't win Washington."

Dear Hillary -

Thank you so much for all your efforts to become our fearless leader, especially when the Obama is TOO young, and McCain is TOO old.

You (on the other hand) are JUST right - just like Little Red Riding Hood's oatmeal.

Even though you're a brilliant professional politician with a crack staff and I'm not, I'd like to humbly offer you one teensy-weensy suggestion.

At this point in the proceedings, it might not be in your own best interest to frame your own statements in terms of what your husband did or did not do.

Just saying.

Sincerely,

Your Friend OTAYPANKY

Bill never won any caucuses.


Bill only won 43% of the vote.


How is Hillary comforting anyone with this bull?

I am an independent voter who caucused in Washington State. As an independent voter I've voted Green, I've voted for Nader, because I haven't been happy with the Democratic Party. I'm not afraid to vote third party, but this year, from taking the time to educate myself, while of course I was drinking my Starbucks latte, quite honestly, I drink Folgers, I went and caucused for Obama. I'm hoping against hope that I won't have to make that great leap of change and vote third party again. That this time the Democrats will get it together and make a change. So put whatever spin you want on caucus's but seeing an 18 year old discussing politics with a 94 year old, is what democracy is all about.

Did anyone see this comment by Mark Penn today?

“She has consistently shown an electoral resiliency in difficult situations that have made her a winner,” Mr. Penn said. “Senator Obama has in fact never had a serious Republican challenger.”

I think the Obama campaign needs to point something out publicly and in the media. Based on Penn's comment, Obama is not strong enough to win the general election because he has never faced a Republican candidate and Hillary has always beat Republicans, therefore, she is tested.
Well, Obama must be pretty darn good to be doing to Clinton what her own campaign admits Republicans have been unable to do. That to me says he is a PRETTY TOUGH, WELL ORGANIZED, and DETERMINED candidate. If he can take her down, the Republicans will be a piece of cake.

Why don't people research before they make baseless comments. What in the heck is this talk about Obama not doing well in primaries? He only does well in caucuses? Looks to me as if he's doing well in both. The FACTS------PLEASE STICK WITH THE FACTS---Are Below!

Please remember that Obama HAS WON these Primaries: Deleware, South Carolina, Alabama, Connecticut, Illinios, Utah, Louisiana, Missouri. PLUS Democrats Abroad (yes, they have a primary and delegates too). Total: 9 Primaries and 9 Caucuses. Plus the Virgin Islands.

Clinton has won: Arizona, Arkansas, California, NJ, NY, OK, Tennessee-Total 7 Primaries and only 2 caucuses.

Obama is WINNING ALL OVER THE PLACE IN ALL DEMOGRAPHICS ACROSS THIS COUNTRY! You CAN NOT SPIN THE FACTS!

One would think the Clinton’s would have learned a lesson in South Carolina, but it appears they didn’t. Talking to reporters today in an attempt to down play Senator Obama’s wins this weekend Hillary said this, I wrote it down word for word... I quote: In the case of Louisiana “you know” there’s a very strong and very proud African American electorate which I respect and understand.

Now I am not suggesting this is a raciest comment, as a black person I’m not overly sensitive, however among African American’s this sounds as if it’s expected they would only vote for the black man and not her. And among African American's it will be interpreted that because it’s a predominately African American electorate it doesn’t count as a “real win”. Hillary didn’t have to bring this up at all and I’m sure she knew that. And people wonder why the Clinton’s have been accused of “bringing the issue of race into the campaign”. I don’t recall Senator Obama bringing up the fact that the majority of white women are Hillary supporters, yes I’ve heard it in the media but never out of his mouth nor from his campaign. It appears that the Clinton’s have given up on the African American vote but I can say that’s a mistake on their part, because I personally know of two African American women that voted for her in California. This is how I see it, obviously the majority of African Americans are supporting Obama so the attempt on their part now is to get the "not so color blind" white people to get behind them. Sad and Shameless I could certainly be way off base but this is how I see it.

Hill says TX is important because it represents a broad section of the electorate- but Obama winning LA, WA state, Nebraska, and Maine in the same weekend is NOT a broad selection of the electorate? ha ha ha ha ha ha

Hillary and her surrogates must forget that there are people listening to their every word 24/7. It's amazing that Hillary does not think before she speaks.

It's YouTube, stupid!

How can she keep saying things like this and simultaneously says she does not want to disenfranchise the voters in Florida?! If people don't wake up and realize she's talking out of both sides of her mouth, we deserve to have her as POTUS.

And for those who think Obama would not carry CA, NY, MA, et.al. during the general election, you are completely off. I doubt Obama would turn off the most liberal of states.

Evita is always dismissive of states she does not win. This is the same attitude she had when she was in charge of health care and told other Dems her way or the highway. You are either with her or against her. When she looses a caucus, they are irrelevant and other states are becuase of large AA populations. And to think I once supported this person.

I don't know which states she's saying that her husband didn't win....

Here is a map of the states Bill won in 1992

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:1992DemPrimariesPresidential.GIF

seems like he won a fair number of caucuses... She is obviously a liar.

Wow. She's gotta be kidding. Anyone who went to the caucuses and didn't vote for HRC is an activist or a latte liberal. And in any case, it doesn't matter what these states do because Bill didn't win them!

The whole argument that caucuses favor Obama is illogical. First off, the caucuses were held on Saturday and Sunday. Many caucuses were open for several hours. Secondly, many of the primaries had people waiting in line for 3 hours or more, including New Mexico. If people can wait in line for 3 hours on a weekday, they can go to a caucus for an hour on the weekend. The entire argument is completely illogical.

Only "activists" vote in caucuses? She is going to regret this. If she wins the nomination, the only activists that will be coming out to vote in November will be the Republican Hillary Hater activists.
