    I wonder how much of this "Clinton's aides were worried about a double-digit loss" stuff was a lowering of expectations by HRC's people.

    Predict a 10-point loss, then if you do better than that you can claim a win. If you actually win, it's a huge momentum boost.

    Guiliani people I have a question. He's basically saying he is running a 29-state primary race to prove he's the candidate that can run a 50-state national race?

    Seems a bit odd doesn't it.

    Not that anyone actually runs a 50-state race in the main event, either.

    In his autobiography, Bill says this was a strategy of his team in '92. Considering HRC was favored until a few days ago to win NH, seems like she adopted the same strategy as damage control.

    Good move by the Edwards campaign to have Elizabeth give a speech. If they're smart they'll leave it at that. But...........

    So then are you suggesting that the media was duped?

    Difference in 1992 was that Clinton never was the favorite.
