Hillery is going to win IN by 10 points, at least. And in NC she will win, just by the skin of her teeth. She said so herself. She's gonna win big tomorrow. Gotalife said so, too. And he has been right over and over and over again.

And you know why? Gas tax holiday. Lots of people drive, especially in NC and IN. They don't need elitists telling them about "supply and demand" and "what the market will bear". They know they want to save $45 over three months. And they will throw their lot in with Hillery. And people like holidays, especially ones that last all summer. Awesome.

Hillery is the only candidate that stands up for the little guy. She's not some multi-million $ elitist from an Ivy league law school, unlike Obama. She's just a downhome country gal who like herself some whiskey and drives around in an old pick-up truck. And she hates OJ. And has bowled a 300 four times, once at Tuzla Lanes. She has the credentials to answer phones at 3:00 AM like no one else.

Greg,

I may not be all "in" with the lingo thing here, but the title of the post made me think that by "drops" you meant they had decided not to send the mailer out.

Well, maybe with the news of 4 marines being killed yesterday in Anbar Province (and the Iraqi first lady almost getting blown up) this will come back into play. It can't hurt to remind people about this ... surely the American people can handle two or three issues at a time, no? ;)

I've been wondering if HRC was going to drop some bomb of an ad (a la Osama bin Laden) the day before the IN election, but she hasn't. Guess she has to settle for that horrible gun ad.

Do people really still see Obama as "the only Democrat who opposed Iraq from the beginning" - based on that one speech before an anti-war crowd before he was even in the Senate - where he voted exactly the same as Hillary on every single vote pertaining to the war?? I thought Obama moved on from the "I opposed the war" issue once people started seeing how weak it really was.

There were no debates in Indiana because Obama refused to debate.

Except that foreign policy seems to affect economic issues like gas prices. I think we can thank George Bush for about half the increase since 2002.

Indiana borders Kentucky... KY voters overwhelmingly do *not* want a black man for president. I wonder how much of that will trickle over into Indiana? At this point, it seems realistic to expect that Clinton will win IN and Obama will take NC.

Which resolves nothing, except to keep everything static until the next batch of primaries. Arg.

"Tough"? Only in the "truth hurts" type of way.

But this third-party mailer is incredibly soft and positive compared, say, to the Clinton CAMPAIGN's recent gun mailer in IN. The SEIU's doesn't get into "Hillary didn't read the NIE," or her irresponsible nuclear war prattle, or Tuzla, or many of the other points that could have been thrown into a truly tough one.

Otto F:

Obama's opposition to the AUMF in Iraq was a key issue of his campaign for the Senate in 2003-04.

Are you suggesting that wasn't a politically risky position for him to take?

As for debates, the only debate engagements Obama should accept from now on are those against John McCain.

Hillary will be lucky if she's not primaried in NY at this point.

HILLARY THE OBLITERATOR

IS A WAR MONGER.

I guess Oilbama has to busy voting for Dick Cheney's Big Oil Energy Bill to do anything about trying to stop funding for the Iraq war. Whats that you say? He has voted for funding the Iraq war every time? What has he done since he has been in the senate to try and stop the Iraq war? Whats that you say? Nothing? How many hearings has he held as Chairman of his subcommittee? Whats that you say? Zero? Why did he accept the chairmanship if he was not committed to do the job? Why did he become friends with Rezco and Ayers? Whats that you say because they gave him money? Why is he blocking the windfall profit tax on Oil companies? Because they give him money.
Scumbag empty suit Oilbama.

The only Democrat who opposed the war from the beginning? Are they kidding me?

Obama is by no means the only Democrat who opposed the war, and Hillary is by no means the only Democrat who voted for continued weapons inspections before the use of military force.

This mailer is misleading and should be pointed out as such. Also, it doesn't point out that Obama blurred his own position when he said that he doesn't know how he would have voted if he were in the Senate and that his position was basically the same as G.W. Bush. How anti-war does that sound?

Another Hudson Valley resident who will work to see any other Dem in HRC's senate seat here in NY. She has morphed into McCain, strapped on testicles, is the opposite of any candidate a feminist should support, and advocated nuclear attacks - which any humanist should abhor.

afferent input is just bullshitting you there is no way hillary will win in NC and she knows it, Obama will gain delegates tommorow because north carolina is much bigger, also there is a reason why no economy experts like the gas tax holiday so don't listen to any of that crap

people are won over to Obama's side by attraction, rather than promotion. What makes your opinionated snark attractive, is what I want to know.
