The poll
[Read the article: Clinton camp goes on offense against Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Remember folks. This poll was taken before and during the seminal speech. Let's wait for the next iteration. The numbers will change. Also, study the poll. Hillary's negative numbers have increased dramatically.

Wait till Al Gore comes out supporting Obama
[Read the article: Clinton camp goes on offense against Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The writing is on the wall for Hillary to now exit with some modicum of grace after running a truly dirty and nasty campaign. Chris Dodd, Richardson, Kennedy, Kerry, Lewis, erstwhile Clinton allies have abandoned them for a reason. Not to mention former Clinton staffers and friends who are also supporting Obama. What does that say about the Clintons? They are manipulative, untrustworthy and disloyal. Their lust for power is a Faustian bargain they made, and people who have crossed their paths have been chastened to opt for a better and more decent candidate who appeals to the best in most of us.
Al Gore will soon be coming out with his endorsement for Obama. He will not allow the Clintons to destroy the Democratic Party.
And to those Hillary supporters who will not vote for Obama - that is your choice. I think Obama will win in spite of that.

The desparation of the Clintons
[Read the article: Clinton camp goes on offense against Obama]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]On the campaign trail today in Charlotte, North Carolina, the former president said a general election matchup between his wife, Sen. Clinton, and Sen. John McCain would be between "two people who love this country" without "all this other stuff that always seems to intrude itself on our politics."

14 Things Hillary needs to heeeeeeeeed: Halperin
[Read the article: Politico: "Clinton has virtually no chance of winning"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]1. She can’t win the nomination without overturning the will of the elected delegates, which will alienate many Democrats.
2. She can’t win the nomination without a bloody convention battle — after which, even if she won, history and many Democrats would cast her as a villain.
3. Catching up in the popular vote is not out of the question — but without re-votes in Florida and Michigan it will be almost as impossible as catching up in elected delegates.
4. Nancy Pelosi and other leading members of Congress don’t think she can win and want her to give up. Same with superdelegate-to-the-stars Donna Brazile.
5. Obama’s skilled, close-knit staff can do things like silently kill re-votes in Florida and Michigan and not pay a political price.
6. Many of her supporters — and even some of her staffers — would be relieved (and even delighted) if she quit the race; none of his supporters or staff feel that way. Some think she just might throw in the towel in June if it appears efforts to fight on would hurt Obama’s general election chances.
7. The Rev. Wright story notwithstanding, the media still wants Obama to be the nominee — and that has an impact every day.
8. Obama might not be able to talk that well about the new global economy, but she (and McCain) can’t either.
9. Many of the remaining prominent superdelegates want to be for Obama and she (and Harold Ickes) are just barely keeping them from making public commitments to him.
10. She can’t publicly say more than 2% of all the things she would like to say about race, electability, beating McCain and experience.
11. If she somehow found a way to win the nomination, she would have to offer Obama the veep slot, and she doesn’t want to do that.
12. This is a change election, and Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton can never truly be change.
13. Obama is having fun most days, and she isn’t.
14. Even though her campaign staff is having more fun than it has for a long time, there’s hardly anyone there who, given half a chance, wouldn’t slit Mark Penn’s throat — and such internal dissension won’t help her in the home stretch.

Time's up for Hillary
[Read the article: Politico: "Clinton has virtually no chance of winning"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]That Bill Richardson guy who always ran to her rescue in the debates, and Bill's football watching buddy, yes, even good friends of this power couple are endorsing Obama, the man Hillary wants to see nothing short of getting bloodied and disemboweled. Time for Hillary shills to change gear, take a deep breath and start shilling for McCain.
For all you know, Hillary might accept being his running mate, destroy the Democratic Party, become proxy president since McCain cannot really remember much these days, get in bed with him (after all she knows how to sleep her way to the top), he will die within the first 100 days from sheer ecstacy, and voila, Hillary WILL be president. Why should she care how she got there?

7 in 10 Americans polled that Wright is no longer an issue
[Read the article: Politico: "Clinton has virtually no chance of winning"]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]CBS poll claims that 7 in 10 believe that Obama did a good job in his speech and 7 in 10 do not care about the Wright flap.
My my. How the media got mileage out of that no brainer.
