Running Primaries Thread

I agree with this part of the memo:

Apparently Obama is sticking with the assertion his foreign policy adviser Susan Rice has already made, that "they're both not ready."

 

I'm not only pleased that we will see the Clinton era in the rear-view mirror in a short time, but we will also see the end of the Mondale era Dems who tend to suck the life out of the party. Adios.

 

I'm just wondering, but wouldn't it be wise for a male Democratic presidential candidate to stay clear of any woman named Rice?

 

When did pillow talk become a way to help intervene with U.S. Troops?

 

Not for nothing, but nobody knew who Barack Obama was in 1993.

 

That's called a throwdown. I'm surprised the Clinton-hating media didn't write that. That reads a lot like the NYT story on McCain's claims of being a straight-shooter had some holes in it. Extra points for including redeeming qualities, such as the good speech in China and President Clinton apologizing for Rwanda. It wasn't written like a slam job, but a very pointed argument.
Too bad all the cable news shows will be talking about Spitzer and (maybe) Fallon stepping down in the run-up to war in Iran.

 

Good point.

 

It has already started -- CNN was just discussing the moral victory that Hillary will be able to claim given that early exit polls in Mississippi have her ONLY losing by about 10 points.......these people have no shame.

 

Considering the demographics of that state, I expect Obama to win the popular vote by a 70-30 margin. A 55-45 Obama win to me would be a big honking storm cloud on the horizon.

Especially considering Hillary essentially punted the Magnolia state.

 

60-40 is about right.

70-30 is unheard of just about anywhere.

 

Except Reagan-Mondale

 

You mean impossible to win it outright? Because she can always win it on superdelegates, who are even more likely to go for her at the convention if she appears to be surging.
