New Hampshire Primary: Closing Thoughts

What's Hillary Clinton to do if she loses to Barack Obama tonight? Depends on … who you ask. Scouring the cable networks' incessant coverage today, we found two (of many) worthwhile conversations on what Hillary's course of action should be.

The first segment in this clip appeared on MSNBC this evening, with Joe Scarborough and his panel discussing how many points Hillary's camp would be comfortable losing by, and what states' primaries she might consider focusing on and even skipping. The second (and third) segment is actually from a Scarborough conversation on MSNBC, which aired this morning, with Salon.com editor-in-chief Joan Walsh, where the argument is made to skip South Carolina even though it's nearly certain she'll lose the state.

Yep. I'm very proud of my girl. The Come Back Kid will hopefully get a bounce. Exit polls say union members voted for her in high numbers which bodes really well for Super Tuesday when the bus comes to CA…we're a big union state. As is Nevada and Ohio. My Blackberry has been blowing up. I have a meeting with my precinct captain and volunteer coord. tomorrow at 7:30 a.m. to talk about putting boots on the ground in Nevada for the primary there. They ain't playing. LMAO. Game on!

Hillary Clinton is ridiculous. All of her policy proposals are less substantive than her rivals. She blatantly rips off themes from other candidates and incorporates them as her own. She has no principles and is completely stage managed. Tonight in her acceptance speech she emphasized "you," which to that point had been a trademark of Obama's speeches. It's "personal" to her like Edwards said earlier at the debate. She talks about the economy suddenly because exit polls told her it was important. Whatever, Obama still has South Carolina and Nevada.

So satisfying watching the crestfallen faces of pundits/haters, who have openly spewed undisguised venom on her for the last few days eat CROW.

All thoese polls proved was that white people lied their asses off about supporting Obama until they got in that voting booth. He may do win South Carolina, but that in no way is a done deal. As far as Nevada goes, I hope he's not counting on the latino vote to hard.

Atalanta, like ALL the other candidates, she uses terms that poll well. "Change" polled the best with all democrats and some republicans in essentially every state. Other buzz words that poll well: God, faith, terrorist, 9/11, integrity, responsibility, etc. Every candidate uses them.

YOU obviously have not done your research on her positions or stances because the first statement is flat out wrong.
