4. When you do the math, with his lacking "35 years" of producing
"real change".... he has already won. I find his campaign to be somewhat remarkable considering the tremendous amount of experience he is up against.

10. No, cause obama said he was going to win.....drum roll please
New Hampshire, and we know how that turned out....he said he was going to win nevada since he had the great support of the 60,000 culinary workers, DRUM ROLL PLEASE uh huh and how did that yurn out.....the union vote went to HRC as did the majority of votes cast....


OBAMA'S LAST SHINING MOMENT WILL BE NEXT SATURDAY JANUARY 26TH...SO IF YOU OBAMA FOLKS HAVE A DVD RECORDER, AN OLD VCR RECORD IT AND SAVE IT FOR PROSPERITY CAUSE AFTER THAT OBAMA IS OR BETTER YET....OBAMA WAS A CANDIDATE....LOSES FLORIDA, LOSES 90% OF SUPER TUESDAY STATES.....

12. It's back to the inevitability meme
gotta go with what you know; results be damned

Nice performance by the usual suspects in the HRC campaign.

I especially liked the voter supression and closing the polls early tactic. I guess hanging with the trickster fraternity in DC pays off if you're an insider no matter the party.

Just win baby

13. Good point.
With Senator Reid supporting Clinton and Reid's son being Co-chair of the Clinton campaign in Nevada, I think this was a great comeback effort for Obama.

14. Since when has Obama been 25 pts down?
Early December? Last I knew it was supposed to be a close race.

15. I am still wondering as to when did clinton get 35 years of experience?
That line came out of nowhere.

17. Bill's experience is Hillary's experience
At least that is what we are supposed to believe.



People should ask themselves, if your boss retired would the best person to take over that position be his/her spouse?

16. up until Iowa
He got a bump after Iowa, I think he was still behind in the polls until the Culinary Union endorsement. (could be wrong, didn't watch the polls much after N.H.)


The only problem is that you can't poll this caucus accurately. The 20 point come back does mean something, but not a lot
