Obama ads on TV constantly.

12. I was in VA over the weekend...........
I heard an Obama AD on the radio at least a half dozen times in VA and a couple more times driving through Maryland. Nothing from Clinton.

4. Obvious proof Obama's momentum has stalled.
He went from speaking in 20,000 seat arenas to speaking in 900 seat high school gyms.

The movement is over, folks.

6. Look at that cult leader and his cult followers holding up cult signs
as he shakes cult hands and gives cult speeches across the cult country. If he doesn't cult stop now, he's going to win the cult primary and then the whole dang cult election!

7. He's in Maryland tomorrow, but during working hours. I wish I could go, but can't.
Too much happening at work. I will get to the polls on Tuesday, though. You bet.

8. "Remember the Titans"
Great photos BTW, I used to wrestle against their school in 68.

TC Williams is the home of the Titans, a great school with a great history.

I saw Senator Obama hug her last night at the end of the Alexandria rally on C-Span (http://www.c-span.org) replay on "Road to the White House. Such energy!

28. Me thinks Governor Marty gets "spanked" tomorrow
O'Malley has endorsed Senator Clinton.

All the "Mr. Know-It-Alls" in New Jersey endorsed Sen. Clinton
on April 7th, 2007.

On Super Tuesday in N.J. it was the Boss Tweeds vs. Moms, College Kids, and Old War Horses,like me...
Our N.J. State Party Convention, the weekend after Labor Day (in Atlantic City)was a stacked deck,i.e. only Clinton got to speak; our Governor Corzine has been promised Secy of the Treasury;
=Fast Eddie Rendell in PA. has been promised Secy. of Commerce. (badly kept secrets along the corridors of Power, via State Senator Weinberg)

And so it goes........
The Super Delegate caucus may look like this....

31. Thank you!...
reading DU I've gotten stuck in the past... forgetting what is really going on out there. Every picture tells a story, don't it?

And if they had the words I could tell to you
to help you on the way down the road
I couldn't quote you no Dickens, Shelley or Keats
'cause it's all been said before
Make the best out of the bad just laugh it off
You didn't have to come here anyway
So remember, every picture tells a story don't it
