More Exclamation Points, Please!
Ezra, in a post titled Punditry:
Meanwhile, Andrea Mitchell suggests that Clinton “came back from the dead in Ohio.” She was leading the whole time! WTF!?
Watching Clinton’s speech last night, in which she portrayed her wins as having given her The Momentum, and something of a Political Resurrection, I was pretty sure that Amazing Clinton Comeback! would dominate the news coverage today. And if it’s not as bad as I expected, it’s still happening. Just to take a couple of examples, Slate’s John Dickerson calls her win “extraordinary.” CNN says this was a “back on track” night for Clinton, which is better but still strikes me as a little strong. But I don’t see how merely performing to expectations (perhaps slightly better in Texas, though she was still expected to win until just a few days ago) counts as all that stupendous a victory. Important, sure, even crucial, in that it keeps the Hillary train chugging along where it might have fallen off the rails entirely. But not worthy of cooing and gushing from any pundit.
No you won’t see any on going coverage on anything that deals with Hillary winning in the media, because they are wanting Obama for the dem. nom. surely you have notice that from day one.I’m glad some of Obama’s past is comming out ,Lord knows they won’t let the Clinton’s past alone.He needs to answer some of the problems that are comming out.The more America knows about him the more they will want HIllary.

Ok, ok so Hilary won three states. Big deal? They both still have a long way to go before they get the nomination. What we should be talking about is whether or not the superdelegates will determine the nominee of the Democratic party. If that is the case, then I WILL NOT vote for whoever is the nominee (i.e. Hilary) especially if the popular vote contradicts the superdelegate nominee, which is currently the case. The democractic party better wake up and smell the coffee because if superdelegates determine the Democratic nominee then MANY once democratic supporters will start changing parties fast!

Personally I will think twice in November before voting for Hilary. I’m just sick and tired of the Bush/Clinton, enough is enough what kind of democracy is that. I definitely don’t want her to pick up the phone at 3 am, to do what??? Transfer the call to bill ?. Like she so close from the middle class, why she hiding a tax return
