Clinton Leaves Wisconsin

Journal Sentinel:

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton has scaled back her Wisconsin campaign schedule by a full day, and is now planning to leave the state after Monday morning instead of Tuesday morning.

The move suggests the campaign does not think it can overtake rival Barack Obama here. Obama has already campaigned in the state Tuesday night, Wednesday, Friday, and today. He also has single events planned for Sunday (Kaukauna) and Monday (Beloit).

Why she’s failing

Clintons (Politician) - Obama (Statesmen)
Politics of fear (Republican) – Politicks of Change (Democrats)

If she were to lose in Wisconsin while still being there then she would HAVE to make a concession speech, which is something she doesn't want to do, because that would be an admission of having lost a primary.

This way she can get free tv exposure making her pathetic stump speech in another state and continue to pretend a primary never happened that night. This has been her pathetic behavior all along. Personally, I think it works against her big time.

The viewers have just been watching the primary results on tv and they get interrupted by her stump speech and so the viewer waits to see her concede the primary and she never does. It just makes her look really bad over and over again.

She needs to fold the tent now and let Obama concentrate of McCain. Although I could see her voting for the old guy in the general election. Her voting record is almost identical to Lieberman's, and we know who he's supporting.

My cousin in WI said that turn-out at her rally near him was considerably less than capacity until a couple of busloads were brought in by the campaign.

No wonder she's ducking out early.

Besides, she's probably got to get back to HQ and strategize about the next faux outrage that they can cook-up about Obama.

I just saw Hillary on faux news trying out a new slogan that didn't catch on. She was saying "yes we will" over and over again and no one joined. She's so shameless when plagarising from BO

"Yes we will" take money from lobbyists.
"Yes we will" play the race card.

"Yes we will" steal votes from Michigan.

"Yes we will" mismanage our campaign.

"Yes we will" divide this nation.

AND

YES WE WILL NOT COME UP WITH ANYTHING ORIGINAL!!!

So funny! First they ridicule the guy and then they imitate him. Can the HRC campaign come up with anything original??? And she wants to run this country? What a retard.

If by some miracle Hillary became President, I sure wouldn't want to be living in one of those states she lost.

The more we see of Hillary, the less impressed we have become. The Clinton - Bush egos have run America into the ground. No more.

Her shrill rhetoric rings shallow and empty ... She is her own worst enemy yet the only hope for the GOP.

This lady is an empty suit and hung her hopes on the less bright ... the ignorant ... the flock. Folks are waking up ... this she did not expect.

Time for Hildebeast to take a long walk ... and McCain shall be joining her a little later. Both have been Bush supporters when America needed honesty and integrity.

Adios Mrs Ego. Take Bill with ya please.

This is strange, considering the polls say that she's only 5 points behind.

Either their internal polls are showing a bigger gap, or this is some kind of expectaions game.

I think that Team Clinton believes that a loss in Wisconsin after putting maximum effort there would be perceived to be much worse than a loss that could be chalked up to being outspent and out-campaigned by Obama.
