Is Kerry running?

Has teh 08 Democratic candidate won any electoral college votes yet?

Looks like the media's sexism, combined with the Obama campaign's failure to manage expectations, ****ed him. Clinton is the front runner again, although that could change in NV and SC.

About 200...

I think if Obama wants to retake the lead, he'll need to start talking about campaign promises instead of the dreamy idea of change.

Why does anyone care. They're just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.

I did say wait until NH before declaring Clinton dead, right?

Now, earlier today, I thought Obama would wipe the floor with Clinton, seeing the poll numbers, but Clinton storms back and the Obama momentum train is stopped for the moment.

After splitting one state each I can't really say their is any front-runner and one can not emerge until someone wins consecutive primaries and leads decisively in the polls.

Theirs some thought that the use of Bill as an Attack dog is very un-becoming of Him and may lower his stature in peoples eyes which costs Hillary. Theirs some speculation that some of the things shes said about MLK will burn bridges with Blacks. Its certainly seems that their was a last-minute movement for Hillary among the undecided voters, it will be interesting to see how the pollsters explain a 15% inversion from the preceding day.

What kind of tone will Hillary's campaign adopt, will they back off the aggressiveness to finish the job or feeling safer will they be more conciliatory.

How can you rationally support caring about this? They're essentially the same candidate, except that one of them has a penis.*




* Hillary has the penis.

That LBJ had a role in the civil rights revolution is insulting to blacks?

Theyve said that about the USA since before the Titanic sailed

Wait, what? Bill as an attack dog is unbecoming of him? He wasn't exactly charitable when running in '92.

Um, how about:
* Crappy sampling
* Small sample size
* Sampling bias
* Dumb obsession with constantly polling everything every five seconds instead of just ... waiting and finding out what the result was from a 100% population poll.

I think the idea is that former Presidents are supposed to be "elder statesmen" and retire from politics, instead heading out to negotiate hostage crises and build houses for homeless people or some such. This is a rather unique situation, after all... I don't recall GHWBush campaigning aggressively for GWBush, but then again I didn't necessarily pay that much attention to any of the meaningful campaign **** since I live in Chicago, which he had no chance of winning anyway.
