Viva Hillary Clinton!

Although she won Puerto Rico easily, Clinton seemed to be campaigning in an alternate reality, as hopes for the nomination slipped away.

    Who really cares?

    Why worry about these nutballs are saying? We are MONTHS away from the general election, we have NO idea who Obama's VP candidate is going to be (it very well could be the lady in the pantsuit), and the Republican's candidate has an uncontrollable propensity to say the most ridiculous and inopportune things at times, not to mention all the baggage that comes with being a Republican after this disaster of an administration. No one knows for certain what's going to happen between now and the general election, but whoever their candidate, the Democrats have a very good chance of winning the White House as well as increasing their majorities in congress.

    Whatever the polls say now (and if the nutballs would take a few moments away from their incredibly important work here at the Salon message boards to check them out they might be surprised to see where they are moving), this primary season has taught us that the polls are MOVABLE and that Obama, more than any other candidate, has the ability to move the polls once he puts his mind and campaign to it.

    Let's please ignore the ad hominems and wingnut style insults that are flying out of of the latest Salon message board trolls and up the level of discussion here a bit.
