Is Barack gonna roll out..............

.....a 'Big One' again, today? Last week, after WV, he slapped John Edwards in his column. Is he gonna do a repeat of that today, after Hillary bagged KY and has a 'coincidental Rally' at the same time in FL? Anyone have any insight?

2. It would be nice for him to do that since Hillary's trying to one up him in Florida today.

5. are you drunk?

Edwards brought in 30 delegates in the next five days and completely took out the conversation of Hillary's WV win...

Hillary was the only one who fizzled on that one my friend.

10. Those delegates were certainly staged as well

Now the dirtiness of working to obscure the voters voice in WV? That's to Team Obama's/Edwards credit.

Still, no one cares a thing about it now - and hence, fizzled.

15. Hello, but Clinton is allowed have a race with Obama and do the same

And it's not like anything was done out of a little bad timing for Hillary that's all. :shrug:

8. how did JE's endorsement fizzle? I'll write this slowly for the hard

of understanding and the reading comprehension challenged: Edwards' endorsement eclipsed Hill's WV blowout and triggered many more SD endorsements. The KY loss is unrelated to JE's endorsement.

13. It was a brilliant move to change the media's focus.

I'm sure you disagree, but they stopped talking about West Virginia almost completely when Edwards announced.

It was a tactically brilliant move. Obama was not going to win West Virginia, so saving the money and defusing the media focus was the best way to win.

14. Certainly helped with some union endorsements

I don't think it came anywhere close to fizzling.

16. LOL! Someone wasn't watching the News that day... Hillary was NO WHERE in sight

it was 24/7 Edwards/Obama that day...for a little history off the top of my head you can even chronologically order the videos on MSN's video section on that date and count the videos on Hillary in MSM vs. Edwards/Obama....its about 10:1

12. Both are Pelosi Club SDs

So it's a matter of when, not if, they endorse him.

9. Hillary is holding SMALL gatherings in Florida

Edited on Wed May-21-08 08:59 AM by gaiilonfong

mostly targeting the Jewish community which I find curious??????????
I wonder what she is up to
Obama rally in Tampa and Broward are in HUGE arenas and will target a diverse crowd.......and his town hall is for Hispanic voters in the ReTHUG I4 corridor.....
I don't trust HIllary and her motives here especially after she and her megalomaniac husband sent LIEberman here in 2004 to get the jewish vote to go against Kerry......I am sure the Obama camp knows what a liar and deceitful pol she is....
