I noticed Hillary is not giving a concession speech
Something her supporters bashed Edwards for not doing when he was in the similar situations.

1. Maryland isn't in yet, but she should concede VA--that was a "real" primary, and she lost it big.

2. I had to turn off MSNBC
I wasn't paying attention to who she was talking to, but all of the yelling was giving me a headache.

Have they not discussed hiring a voice coach?

3. They should have hired a voice coach years ago when she first knew
she wanted to run for president. I honestly believe that her voice is a substantial obstacle with many voters.

10. Forget the voice coaching -- just implement
volume control. She spent $6mm on Mark Penn -- how about $100k on a sound tech?

5. That's cool ...
I had to do the same with Obama just now. Shit, I've got on "The Nanny" and Fran Dresher's voice is more enjoyable than Obama.

7. Oddly the voice doesn't bother me as much...
...as the constant, slow head nod does. That aggravates me to no end.

4. I think she's in "this isn't happening" mode.
Seriously. Her campaign is in a tailspin. And I'm actually really surprised by that.
