Looks like Hillary found the gear shift lever on her campaign's
transmission in Nashua tonight, bludgeoning Obama over his votes for
"Dick Cheney's energy bill" and other untoward votes he cast in his
short Senate tenure. From the reports, this got the crowd going
pretty good. Meanwhile, Obama's still stuck on the "turn the page"
message with no policy specifics at all in Manchester...which has
worked well for him up until now, but may run him aground soon, if he
cannot both defend his own voting record and bash Hillary's at the
same time. Dems are also rumoring that Clinton has a batch of new
Obama negative ads to unleash on Manchester and Nashua TV stations
Monday.

Well, she's going to need all the help she can get, according to
Gallup's latest statewide numbers. Obama has pulled ahead to 41% of
likely primary voters (no specificity as to whether Dems or
"unaffiliateds"), with Clinton down to 28% from 33% prior to her Iowa
thrashing. Edwards is slipping again, down to 19% now, predictable in
a state where there are virtually no "blue collar" workers left, and
70% of the state's economy consists of what scraps the small
businesses can throw together. With only hours left until the
balloting, the question isn't whether Clinton can or cannot campaign
hard enough to beat Obama (she can't...not enough time, not enough
"Hillaries" to go around to all the events needed to make up 14% in a
couple of days) but, rather, how many votes will McCain siphon away
from Obama (or vice versa!) among the "unaffiliateds."

That would be a bigger mover in percentage of total votes than would
anything Hillary could do now, and McCain's obviously on a roll in the
state. The formerly "unsinkable S.S. Romney" is now taking on water,
much to the horror of party regulars like the seeming closet gay Ken
Mehlman, who ran Bush's dirty tricks campaign in 2004 at the behest of
Karl Rove.

Mehlman reminds me of another gay blade of politics, this one of the
1950s...the disgustingly vile Ray Cohn, who was Joe McCarthy's (R-WI)
hatchet man/lawyer. Cohn was a real piece of mentally scrambled work
who died of complications of hepatitis (which one, we don't know now)
contracted most likely from his weird habit of eating left-behind food
off of other peoples' plates at any dinner function he attended.

Meanwhile, the GOPher operatives have started to really get worried
that this thing about Bush destroying their party is the real deal.
Read for yourself, from no less credible a writer than Ron Fornier of
AP:

Dan Rather's right...it's still VERY early in the game, and "Tsunami
Tuesday" has changed the game from a state-by-state contest to a
semi-national "pre-election" event. Remember, Iowa has only a 75%
correct record of picking the eventual nominee for either party, and
this is the first "wide open" election since 1952. The "rules" are
out the window, and the GOP's standard bearer now in the White House
is in the worst shape in approval of ANY sitting U.S. President since
scientific polling started in the 1940s.

Those who remember their history will recall that Iowa and New
Hampshire both thought that it would be Estes Kefauver for the
Democrats in '52, but the big states picked Adlai Stevenson. No
matter, Kefauver would've lost probably even worse to Ike, whose
election, in retrospect, was a "prize" awarded by the American people
for his job as supreme commander of the European theater in WWII. As
it turned out, he was nothing more than a caretaker in office...which
is probably what people wanted at the time. Corporate clowns used
Ike's laissez-faire presidency to at least partially restore their
control over the government they lost under FDR and HST. It's that
"corporate control" that's fueling a great deal of Obama's rise to
prominence now, believe it or not.

and out comes the far-left RACISM of DeserTBob, just like the rest of
the left wing fringers....exactly like Rush Limbaugh stated- the
lefties are all for equality, until someone of color surpasses them-
then they attack them- even if they belong to their own party

If I was a Democrat strategist, I'd run Obama as president, and
Richardson as VP- at least they look more presidential and
professional than Hillary and the Bret-girl

what is more important is, how presidential all the Republican
candidates looked, compared to the Democrats- I would take any
Republican candidate at this point, over the Dems

obvious outcome- another Republican in the White House in 2009

As though you made any sense. Your willing to defend Rush "ManMeet"
Limbaugh, a homo, drug abuser and known coward. Your willing to
attack the dem candidates even though their morality is far, far
better than the repug candidates. How many marriages has Rudi had?
McCain?

Geez, run any repug you want and you will get beat. Some, like Rep.
Paul will get you beat like a brass gong, others, like McCain, will
result in an honorable defeat but since your last years in power were
typified by the worst administration in the nations history getting
beat is in your presidential future.
