    It has had no effect on Obama..........He's still losing Pennsylvania (like he lost the other big states) despite outpsending Hillary 4-1.

  • He's not Polling Better Against McCain

    [Read the article: Did the "bitter" flap affect the race?]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    He's lost 10 points to McCain in the last week plus..........See, this is the problem with using polling of democrats to say Obama has not been hurt.

    Dummies.

    I already told you..........If Obama wins the nomination but loses the general, Hillary is a given to be the nominee in 2012. If Obama wins the general, he's promised a whole lot of hope and change. It doesn't happen and Hillary will come after him as the sitting President in the 2012 primaries. Hillary ain't going anywhere.

    Right. Obama has gone from doing better against McCain than Hillary to the same or even worse in some polls and in some states.

    On the headline page of CNN there is an article on Hillary gaining on Obama, leaving the McCain angle out of it.

    Hillary's best shot in 2012 is if Obama wins the general this time. Mr. Change and Hope could flop big time.

    If it turns out to be hot air, NO ONE will be ready for another round of touchy feely speeches in 2012 to try and get it back in his favor.

    A primary victory for the ages in any event. I can see The Obama convention speech now-----Yes we can. Yes we did. Well, with no big state wins but Illinois, and a bunch of caucuses that McCain is going to win anyhow, and of course minus Florida and Michigan.

    I agree. McCain is pretty damn lame. That may be the saving grace if Obama is the nominee.

    With the results from the other big states, it's understandable that the Obama campaign wants no part of Florida or Michigan.

    Is huge. Hillary needs to gently, and occasionally roughly, tap that knee with the little hammer on a daily basis until the convention. In this debate Obama started showing a crude, angered side about it, and he didn't look good doing it.
