Ya know, I'm disappointed with my candidate, but a Dem is going to win in Nov!

With the massive DEM turnout seen in Iowa and NH compared to the disengaged rethugs, I'm feelin pretty good about our chances in Nov, and even though my candidate is doing worse than I'd hoped and expected, I would so, so, so much rather have Hillary over ANY repub. Man, she would be great. (Just not as great as my candidate).

Cheers.

2. Obama

He may pull out a narrow win, but unless it's more than 5 points, HRC will declare a 'comeback'. I'm not saying it's over. It's just made me realize this thing is much closer than I'd hoped, and in the end, I'd be very happy just to have any Dem back in power.

4. They already told you: Hillary LOL

I know, they talked about their candidate, but they didn't name their candidate. They did say "I would so, so, so much rather have Hillary over ANY repub." which is an endorsement of Hillary, since they never named their own candidate.

It's all good. I think it's interesting that Obama is doing the democrat's work for them in getting new people to hear the democrat's message, though. Why should Hillary be the beneficiary of that, particularly given how much her and her husband seem to despise Obama and his grassroots efforts and coordinating?

Oh well. On to South Carolina.... and the issues that are going down there.

3. I have no doubt that we will win in November.....

But it is so disturbing to see how the MSM is handling this primary...The polls were totally wrong..Congrats Hillary......
But what really pisses me off is the fact that we should not be going through this primary (with 3 candidates) We should be in the process of re-electing John Kerry....

9. I just can't vote for Hillary -- she does not represent the critical change this

country needs. She's part of the problem. The lesser of two evils, is still evil. Maybe I just won't vote -- after all it just encourages them!

The nail in the coffin for me re: Hillary -- a pandering, warmongering speech she recently gave to the AIPAC crowd.
