Hillary at twilight

Was her campaign stop in an Ohio town called Hanging Rock a metaphor -- or a symbol of dogged defiance?

    Hillary has 0 % chance getting elected

    I repeat, 0 %.

    Even if she does get nominated, she energize the right like no other. I can't believe how many people on Salon can't see something so basic. Her lying and manipulative ways, in order to win the nomination, will piss off many Democrats, who may not turn out for her in large numbers, many Obamaniacs especially.

    I saw the Slate.com articles stating that Democrats prefer Hillary. I'm not so sure...what is the definition of a Democrat, someone who has voted as a Democrat for years? I would believe that older voters prefer Hillary, but not lefties, or younger voters. I think that this is where the numbers come from. Also, as the article pointed out, caucus data is very hard to interpret.

    Hillary would need many more voters that just Democrats to win and she would convince absolutely nobody from now to November. Everyone has made up his/her mind about her; there's little to learn that is new about her.

    Her real problems are 1) trying to seat MI and FL delegates (the lying and cheating Hillary); 2) Her Iraq war vote (please, she didn't think that Bush would actually INVADE); 3) NAFTA 4) her increasing bitchiness on the campaign.

    Let's face it, Hillary has beaucoup baggage. She's tired, last century, stale, and offers nothing new. The Clinton years sucked: they sucked for working people, period, and in this regard, were little better than the Republicans, whose collective ass they kissed too much.
