Newspaper refreshes results every five minutes - reports Hillary doing well in Manchester, won Hooksett, Dover, and Rochester; Obama wins in Concord, Bow.

One interesting feature. . .there are more WRITE-INS on the Republican side (2% of the vote) than votes for Alan Keyes, Duncan Hunter, and Fred Thompson. . .hahaha.

Why can't they shut that off?

Posted by Hamlette on Tue Jan-08-08 09:19 PM

I don't know about you, but I am thoroughly pissed off at the lame, unprofessional conduct of the various networks--MSNBC in particular. They knew that the polls had at least 17% undecided. Rather than simply report that there were a significant number of undecided voters and any projections were not reliable, they danced around like crack addicts celebrating the demise of the Clintons. Hillary is too wimpy. Hillary is too stern. Hillary is too manipulative. Hillary is not manipulative enough.

Special offenders include Chris Matthews, Andrea Mitchell, and Howard Fineman. They were so busy dancing on the Clinton grave that they did not have the decency to do some objective analysis. Hell, they tried to deceive the American people. So much for the death of Hillary's campaign.

82. I was referring to Edwards. More than any other candidate, I think, there's a

consistency to his speeches, with little variance. Even in these concession speeches it seems like he just adds a few sentences at the beginning and end to an abridged version of the stump.
