I think when all is said and done if Obama somehow wins the primary he will be so damaged, he will probably be unelectable in the general election.

1. Ditto for Clinton.

Obama's got the cash, and he's not going down without a fight either.

12. I assume she spent a lot of dough in october and november

then again, it isn't about who has the most money for me.

It's the issues, stupid.

4. So how will she damage Obama?

Showing she has a better health plan?

A better farm plan?

A plan to improve education?

A plan to cut the cost of a college education?

How would these damage Obama?

Now, if she wants to use that money spreading half truths or worse....

5. Are you suggesting everyone just hand this over to Hillary

because if they don't she will make sure EVERYONE loses and the Republicans hold onto the Whitehouse?

Wow! Thats one hell of a childish attitude. :wtf:

7. That's CRAP.

The Democrat, whoever it is, is going to win if the votes are counted. If the votes are not counted, no behavior, record, or personal history will matter a damn anyway.

72 million Dems.

55 million Reps.

42 million independents.

We need 13 million independents and not one Republican. The Republicans need 30 million independents.

It isn't even close.

9. I'll take that as a veiled threat that you hope Hillary f*cks up her primary opponents.

10. So that's what she would spend her money on...lying about a fellow candidate?

It's pretty obvious that she is like a boxer that is flailing at air and trying to not fall on the mat.

If she wants to spend her money attacking Obama, she has met her match. All we have to do is watch her embarrass herself and offer pity when she finally drops out of the race in mid-February.

She may have a couple snowballs to throw at Obama, but the avalanche is about to fall squarely on her campaign.

13. That is more than ANY party committee.

That is twice as much as the DSCC and DCCC have in the bank at the end of October. And they have a lot more than the Republicans.

This is just too much money.

14. Hillary won't go down

That's why Monica happened after all.

But seriously, she and anyone with 1/2 a brain always knew the race would tighten and it has. Now the media has been instructed by their repug owners to try and make Obama the nominee so she is coming out swinging for all of us. Be thankful.

19. Me thinks she better save some money for her...

NY senate re-election coming up in a few years. After next month the "Clinton machine" will be finished.
She will be unable to raise the kind of money she once used to and NY is not a cheap market to run a campaign.
