My governor's on board...now
Gov. Jon S. Corzine - a strong supporter of Hillary Rodham Clinton - said Sunday that the New York senator should review her presidential bid if she doesn't win the upcoming Ohio and Texas primaries.

"I do think it is important that we get on to coalescing around a candidate, but I think it ought to be the one that will serve the nation best, the one that actually has the talent and the ability to make sure that we lead the country in the proper direction," Corzine said in an interview with on Fox News.

The governor - who endorsed Clinton in April and campaigned for her in many states - reiterated his support for her. However, he added that if she lost in Ohio and Texas "then I think the time to move on probably is at hand."

1. But I think the bar is being lowered - it used to be she had to win both,
now it's that she can't lose both. With the polls in Texas showing a close race, I think they're trying to move people's expectations and are thinking about staying in even if they lose Texas.

2. I don't disagree with you..but it's interesting to see some of her hard core supporters saying..
she should step down, "if" she doesn't win Ohio or Texas, including Kathleen Kennedy Townsend..even the Big Dog said, "If you vote for her, I think she will win the nomination, if you don't, I don't think she will!"

Funny thing though, none are willing to admit or go all out and say that barring a miracle, she can't catch up..
