Fineman saying the Kennedy endorsements didn't help.

Fuck you MSNBC for your nonstop coverage of that endorsement.

1. Latinos did it for her. May she get them amnesty in return for their families.

[havocmom]

2. How can he draw that conclusion

before Calif and the Southwest are in?

edited to add: the world does not revolve around Mass or the East Coast, but it's hard to get that point made.

[godai]

8. He really didn't say that

The discussion was, did the Kennedys perhaps help raise the Obama vote from 20% to 40%, but there was not enough time. Fineman said...there's never enough time.

17. Thanks for clarifying. Havocdad has the remote

and thinks watching the news channels will raise my blood pressure too much.

heh heh He can't horde the clicker AND the mouse!

[MonkeyFunk]

3. She's winning Massachusetts...

so maybe it didn't.

[yourout]

4. Kennedys endorsement helped just not enough.

[ithinkmyliverhurts]

5. How in the hell can Fineman say that????

Oh, yeah, wait. He's a genius--such astute deductions.

[godai]

10. He didn't - see post #8 n/t

[sandnsea]

6. There would have been NOTHING without that endorsement

These people are idiots.

[KittyWampus]

7. Oh, they helped. Obama should bring this in with 40% and he's in strong position for later states

[Kittycat]

9. Obama was only polling 22% before the Kennedy endoresment in Mass.

Anything better than that, and he made headway.

11. K's reach to Richardson for O was rebuffed, he hung with Clinton instead

It was spun here on DU this week that Clinton was watching the Super Bowl with N.M. Gov. Bill Richardson to get his endorsement of Hillary, and he failed. No endorsement.

Howard Fineman said Kennedy wanted Richardson to endorse Obama, and he instead stayed neutral and went off to watch the Super Bowl with Bill Clinton.

Maybe we'll have to think of DU as PU -- Propaganda Underground -- until we have a candidate.

[KennedyGuy]

12. Tweety slapped him down...

he doesn't like anyone talking bad about Obama or his supporters...

[milkyway]

13. Fineman's a dope. Take a look at the Mass polls--that sharp diagonal line going up

is from the Teddy endorsement. Hillary was up 25+ points in a state with 93 pledged delegates, and 28 unpledged. What should have been a large delegate advantage is now next to nothing. Teddy cost her at least a dozen delegates in Mass alone. Keith tried to make this point, but Fineman was too dull-witted to understand it.

[blm]

14. Fineman CAN'T COUNT? Hillary was up by 40% in Mass at one point. Obama's surge here is AMAZING.

Someone give Howie the mediawhore a CALCULATOR - quick. Does he not see that ONE team is GROWING in strength while the other is SHRINKING and losing its iron grip? That iron grip of TeamClinton's is showing stress fractures. Serious stress fractures.

[LiberalFighter]

15. Was MSNBC the only one doing nonstop on endorsesment?

[MoonRiver]

16. No shit, Sherlock.

Time to put old Ted out to pasture.

[MethuenProgressive]

18. Clinton voters rejecting the politics of the Teddy Kennedy past.

Who wants to go thru all THAT again?
