Hillary doesn't add enough to the ticket to be Veep. She's not even carrying her home state of Arkansas.

Senate Majority Leader, now that, I could enthusiastically support for her. At a minimum, she'd do a much better job than Reid, and she'd have more power than as Veep, too. We wuldn't have to worry about getting President Obama's agenda through the Senate with her at the helm, that's for sure.

Hillary for Majority Leader!

Probably a really good day or two for Clinton rolled off the average, and she's back to her usual 42%.

The numbers were Obama 49, Hillary 45, if you do the math to reverse the averages. I was saying yesterday that the Gallup polls were just an outlier, because for that kind of jump Obama had to drop to 39% (!) and Hillary rise to 52%, which seems pretty ridiculous for daily numbers to be that far off for no real reason. Now, if tomorrow those numbers turn into 48 Obama, 44 Hillary, the daily will be Obama 52%, Hillary 41%, which will line up with the polls before the weekend, and will probably be more accurate than this weekend speedbump.

This actually gives me more faith that OBAMA will fare better in the General Election because

1) These results will not be exactly the same in November.
2) However what these result show is that the majority of HRC delegates come from "Barely Dem" which means they could flip by November.  Moreover, McCain's majority of delegates come from Strong GOP which is unlikely to waver.
Conversely, Obama's largest group of delegates is Weak Dem, while his smallest group is barely Dem.  While McCain still has a large number of Solid GOP delegates his barely GOP delegates increase from 13 against Clinton to 76 against Obama.

The polling shows that Clinton can only lose delegates and has no delegates to gain, whereas, Obama cannot lose delegates and can only gain delegates.

This polling was also apparently done when Obama has had non-stop negative media running against him from HRC and McCain and McCain has no negative media running against himself.

You're awesome AlexScott.  

You wish

I'll give you credit on Florida, but stop with the ridiculous "Michigan should count" crap.  It was patently unfair because Hillary ignored the Democratic leadership's call for all candidates to remove themselves.  

Ha, interesting way to say "second to last."  I think most people would take "penultimate" in this context to actually mean second place since it almost always refers to a series.  Sort of like the "sub-par" thing that people do.

I think Hillary should run on that Bush Sr policy of Obama's - because Dick Cheney was the Secretary of Defense under Bush I

which should give people pause when they think of that.

The Gulf War started after Iraq invaded Kuwait, ace.  And America did just enough to get them out of Kuwait.  They knew they couldn't take over the country without a civil war ensuing.  Dick Cheney said this in an interview in '92.  So they got the hell out of the country.  That's the foreign policy Obama is referring to, one without preemption and without "massive retaliation" as your gal Hillary likes to say.  Has she started singing "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran" yet?  Just curious.

Who are you kidding? He would lose in a landslide.

Obama's coattails will be long enough that we won't need to care what the Republicans think.

And if fishes were wishes, we'd all be Democrats.

By working a 50 state strategy, down ticket Democrats will be helped by Barrack.

I think you mean a 48-state strategy.

Since Hillary thinks that only the big states matter, she'll have less success outside of them.

And let's just see how Obama fares in big states like Florida and Ohio. Btw, Hillary never said that small states don't matter. The doofus she fired did.

But I think is trying to point out how meaningless yesterday's poll was, which I could be wrong because I can't access it now, but wasn't that the diary that was deleted from the rec list?

Yes, we're so powerful.  I actually happen to know the pollster of this particular poll, and I offered him a top cabinet position if he changed the results in Obama's favor.

Because I'm THAT POWERFUL.

Yes, "Obamabots" have the ability to create reality.  That's why we're dragging the primaries out, just to play with you.

Shoot the messanger

It happened in 2006, you can bet it's going to be more powerful in 2012.
