Insane campaign, what’s she doing now?
In an attempt to keep campaign spirits up the HRC campaign ignores much. The HRC campaign continues to insist that Obama needs strong wins in the March 4 primaries.


Snip/
"Should Senator Obama fail to score decisive victories with all of the resources and effort he is bringing to bear,", "the message will be clear: Democrats, the majority of whom have favored Hillary in the primary contests held to date, have their doubts about Senator Obama and are having second thoughts about him as a prospective standard-bearer."


It amazes me how her campaign continues to claim strength considering that just two months ago she was ahead 20 points in Texas, and 15 points in Ohio and now are nearly even in both states.

This coupled to the fact that she has lost 11 primaries in a row shows it is Hillary that needs the decisive wins on March 4 not Obama.

4. The fact is
he can't secure the nomination with pledged delegates unless he has very large wins. That's just the truth.

5. It will be interesting to see what they say should Obama get those strong wins

I guess then it will be that PA is the wisest of them all, and PA will be where the voters display their "buyers remorse."

7. Gotta link? Curious who said that.
It certainly seems like their S.O.P. to claim victory while losing miserably.

16. It was a Clinton campaign press call
Howard Wolfson,

here is some more

"He has all the advantages," Wolfson continued. "He's got great press. He's got a huge spending disparity. He's telling people that he's the nominee. He acting like he's the nominee. So, if he doesn't win all four of the contests, I think it demonstrates that there is a concern on the part of Democrats with giving him the nomination. And we're banking that that concern is real."

19. This "Alice Through the Looking Glass" feeling I get from her campaign..
makes me sick to my stomach. We've had 8 years of "Up is Down - Black is White" reasoning in politics and I am so tired of it. No more games, no more spin.
