Hillary's time of troubles
As Clinton and Obama spoke to Virginia Democrats on Saturday, the crowd's response -- and returns from Nebraska, Washington and Louisiana -- showed how the tide is turning.
By Walter Shapiro [2008-02-10]

  • James Levy, you're welcome

    I'm glad to hear that you found some of the information helpful. I understand your concerns about what the Republicans do to "good men." I guess I would counter that Obama seems to have weathered a lot of the accusations that Hillary's campaign has thrown at him ("cocaine, madrassas, slum-lords, jesse jackson, inexperience, all talk and no substance") and still come out ahead. I trust that having seen the disasters that were the Gore 2000 campaign and the Kerry 2004 campaign, Obama's strategists and advisors are preparing for the worst. I also take it as a good sign that Obama has new faces and new strategists working with him, while Hillary is relying on people who helped get her husband elected. Finally, Obama promised to run a clean campaign until he gets the nomination. I think the gloves will be off when it's just him and McCain.

    But again, no one has a crystal ball. We all have to go with our own best choices.

    Happy voting!
