I don't believe Terry McAuliffe.

Actually, it proves that Obama was prepared and Hillary wasn't. It also proves he has a 50-state plan, while Hillary only has a blue-states-plus-one plan. It's a plan that has failed us the last two elections. Why should it work this year? Especially if Hillary gets the nomination, which she doesn't have the organization to do. The most important campaign in her life, and she doesn't have a Plan B after Super Tuesday? Geez, it's hardly any wonder that most states, delegates and voters have backed Obama. When that phone call comes at 3am, I doubt Hillary has a clue how to handle it. I base this on her poorly managed campaign. She's been fierce lately, but you can't "negative campaign" your way out of a national security crisis. Or a campaign that's already lost.

Agreed. I'm glad she said it. Samantha Power is a smart cookie, and she will be a huge asset as an adviser to President Obama.

Obama hasn't had a chance to campaign in Florida, so those wacky Floridians haven't been able to take a measure of the man. He'll do better there with more up-close exposure. Look at Ohio and Texas, which he lost by much closer numbers than how they were polling two weeks ago.

Unfortunately, dirty tricks work. And the media is eating up what the Clinton camp is selling, particularly this canard about how Hillary just has to get close in Wisconsin to beat expectations—even though the demographics of the state favor her. If she wins in Wisconsin, there will be a bruising battle from here on out. Nothing else has been working for Hillary so far. And as soon as Obama responds with anything remotely negative, she's going to say, See, he's as polarizing as I am, so you might as well vote for the more experienced polarizing figure (though her claim of experience—another thing the MSM is eating up—is dubious). If dirty tricks change the direction of this race and Hillary manages to eke out a victory (still a longshot, according to Intrade), she'll lose my vote. Bottom line: As long as we continue to reward negative campaigning, it will never die.
