2. It's starting to look like it's the truth.
She's going to use it but it might be too late to stop the slide.

Obama supporters had better not become complacent though. It's not over yet.

3. She still has much of the party apparatus in her pocket.
With that in mind, I would never consider her to be an underdog, although Obama is looking harder to beat.

This is a 180 degree turn for her, in a way. Before, her spin was that she was an unstoppable, inevitable force, and now it is that she is the underdog. I don't know if people will buy it -- We'll see.

5. She'll lose Wisconsen next - and if she only splits Ohio/Texas - she's lost the nomination

6. That underdog won't hunt.
She needs to win both TX and OH by big margins (like 20%) or she's toast. Better hope this thing doesn't go into late April waiting on PA. We need to get a nominee and start kicking McCain's ass from here to Timbuktu!

8. It was spin after Super Tuesday. It's the truth after last night.

9. Did the Patriots SUDDENLY become the underdog when the Giants took the lead in the 4th?
Edited on Wed Feb-13-08 11:27 AM by jmg257
Was Appollo Creed SUDDENLY the underdog 'cause Rocky started kicking his ass in the middle of the fight?


Nope, they were just 2 heavily-favored losers who got spanked by THE underdog.

10. Thats right, you have to be the underdog from the start
Her staff is still mimicking the momentum of the other side, instead of leading.
