Not surprised by MSNBC, they're not about to do Clinton any favours, but looks like the possibilty of late returns from counties that heavily favour Obama could still cause an upset.
-
It is just unusual to be having a primary contest continue this late in the year.
And most Dems don't mind. Gallup has 60% of Dems wanting the contest to continue. Given that the polls don't have either of the candidates above 50% that's quite a strong mandate to keep going.

The Obama team are now talking of doing a deal over seating Michigan and Florida.
A clear sign that they now think this is sewn up and that's probably an accurate assessment of what's happen today. They wouldn't be offering to have those votes counted if they thought that would jeopardise his chances. Now they feel it safe to do so. Politics.

Clinton clearly had never slugged back a couple of shots
she might have done after she found out about Lewsinky.
-
And it's always different when it's Hillary.
She's not perfect. And in past threads I've criticised her. The thing is, I prefer her by about 10%. 5% on certain quite narrow policy issues such as helath and education. The other 5% is just the usual slightly irrational tribal loyalty.
So I don't have any need to bitch about Obama or get outraged when his campaign is less than sqeeky clean.

Clark has choosen, justifiably in my opinion, political expidency with the surtax.
This is politics. Obama and Clinton have to take different positions on a lot of issues. It's Kabuki. I fail to see the need for all the outrage.
-
You're accusing Obama of "using Republican tactics"?
yes.
But it's not the same thing.
it's aways different when it's Obama.
but they're delaying the introduction of a surtax
the objective is the same - to keep gas prices down for political reasons.
-
Have a go then ...
using insurance industry and Republican tactics to attack her health reform policies.
And yes the tax holiday is not a great idea - but this is poltics, it's what Clark is doing wiht fuel prices here.
-
I'm not sure they're the same thing at all.
It is the same thing. For anyting stupid you can bring up about the Clinton campaign I can match it with something from Obama's.
-
if you want intelligent comment rather than the usual bitching about Hillary try
TalkLeft.It was only pointed out to me a few days ago that one of the main commmentators there is pro-Obama.
"Hillary" (first name)?
I think to avoid confusion with Bill.
