Dunno if anyone else watched the primaries on CNN, but I clearly remember a lady talking about how Clinton won these primaries. She referenced a poll that asked those voting who had decided on who they were voting for when they made up their mind, and the majority of the people who voted for Hillbot decided to do so in the first few days leading up to the primaries. She also mentioned how during this time all the anti-Obama propaganda was dumped on the media...

Well played Hillbot, well played...

I guess the thing that pisses me off most is that Obama has repeatedly said he won't bring up any dirt on Hillary like she did to him because he doesn't want to divide the Democratic party. Whoever said "Nice guys finish last" couldn't have been more right.

Oh, and now everything is playing out just as the Repubs want it to... They knew Obama would be harder to run against, and that there was way more dung they could fling at Hillary... I know it's not over, Obama still has a chance, but I mean... I'm so scared of another Republican running this chariot to Hell, especially McCain.

won't it be great when obama wins the presidency in a landsslide while staying above he fray and no taking the republican dirty-campaign bait tthat aims to paint him into a corner?

I, for one, was impressed at his ability to take on clinton's red phone ad by using her voting record, rather than using a cloudy debatable rationale that said that being a first lady, as a non - elected office, wasn't a real bastion of presidenial expirience.

the financing issue remains to be seen, as far as campaign ethics are concerned, but he seems not to bend to cheap shots, and I haven't seen many able to deal witth campaign trolls like he has.

He is, however, going to have to call her on her supposed "experience". What experience? He needs to call her on her financing and he needs to call her on NAFTA. She is talking out both sides of her mouth and he needs to make more people realize it.

Its dangerous, now... he's got two opponents now, and no one else does. Stayng highbrow, and responding decisively, instead of defensively, is his best option. responding positively toward himself, rather than negatively against the others would be his best option... I bet that's what he phoned hillary about last night.

The best angle now for he dems is to prove why each is better han Mccain, than why yhe other is worse than they are. It seems to be his strong suit.
