Re: Obama surging in NH..

I still think Obama has the edge, especially going into South Carolina, which should be a lay-up for him.

I think he certainly does in the next two states. He just got a big union endorsement in NV last night, and is expected to get another today. He ought to do well in NV and SC.

I was hoping that last night would be a de facto knock out blow (even though it's not like she would drop out before Feb 5), but it's clear we've got a real race now.

^ kinkster, as much as i hate you that was fuckin awesome! she should iron all of our shirts!

for everyone else: help me understand something: romney is leading in the number of delegates because of WY (http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/) but everyone considers him a loser? iowa and nh had less delegates, but yet they are more important? how come?

I actually think this played a pretty large role in what happened. Obama's internal polling showed him at 37, Hillary at 30, which is more or less consistent with what other polls showed. Point is, Obama got his 37%, and the difference-maker was undecided women who overwhelmingly showed up for Clinton.

Imagine you're an undecided woman trying to figure out who to support and a couple of douchebags show up chanting "Iron My Shirt." Think that might persuade you to side with the woman in a show of solidarity? I think it might. In fact, in light of the amount of media coverage that got in NH, I think it did. My totally unscientific opinion, FWIW.

Here's the interesting thing about this, though. Before delivering her line about the remnants of sexism, she asked that the lights be brought up. Sure makes it easier to film something like that when the lights are up. I suppose it's possible that she recognized what they were doing, decided to take advantage of the moment with a zinger and determined that it would get the best media coverage with the lights up on the fly. If she did, kudos to her, because it worked. I'm not saying anything, I'm just sayin'...

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a grassy knoll I need to survey.

One word: momentum.

her crying was an attempt to make people believe she has a heart... all a deceptive ploy, imo. she played the pity card. she knows exactly what she's doing and people bought into those fake tears. god help us all.

between bill and hillary, i give them 5 stars on their acting jobs so far and suckering in voters. they are so full of shit.

Im sure everyone is well aware by now, especially after Bill's two campaigns, and his presidency, and now Hillary's campaign:

The Clinton Political Machine is nothing to take lightly. That thing is no joke. lol.

Re: Obama surging in NH..

Looks like those 2 "IRON MY SHIRT" guys were radio personalities doing a stunt, not plants. They might have unintentionally helped her win on Tuesday, though...

God forbid Obama get the nomination. NH has credibilitiy at the polls but not much weight in determining who is the best candidate. Hillary Clinton is by far the best candidate.
