DEAD HEAT AMONG DEMS IN TEXAS - Reaction to Clinton going Negative???
Edited on Mon Feb-18-08 04:29 PM by Gnister
Seems like Obama is closing in on Clinton.

Probably a reaction to the Clintons going negative and siding up with the republican and McCain in the Attacks on Obama. Will be interesting to se the coming polls in Ohio. I really, really hope this will stop the Clintons from betraying our party and instead try a positive campaign. I'm confident this will give them a better results in the coming primaries.

Lets stay positive and unite in order to beat the republicans in November. Not attack each other and side up with the republicans!

Democrat First!!! United we will win in November!!!

6. Disagree
I think the movement is in line with what is going on nationally, where Obama now has a double digit lead overall. No reason for Texas not to move with everyone else. I expect to eventually see movement in Ohio as well.

10. Stay positive!!!
So you really think that her going negative is something that in generall is viewed positive? I'm 100 % sure that whoever goes negative in this election, Clinton or Obama, will lose the most. I believe it has been quite evident troughout the whole primaries. And since the most of us want a positve campaign and I actually think this is quite natural.....

Damocrats First!!! Lets Unite in order o beat the republicans in November!!!

13. the problem with going negative is you always get some of the negative blowback
Hillary already had high negatives, so it does hurt her more

16. She went negative because she knows she's falling and she can't get up.
Her actions are the last gasps of a dying campaign.
