this is exactly what we don't need.
The NAFTA lady can't even win the nomination. Put down the pipe.
Either of them can beat McCain....
It's weird... I know we are used to underestimating our candidates... especially if they are not our first choice, but geez oh man... Some of you are VASTLY overestimating McCain....
Everyone thought Kerry could beat Bush in 2004, too.
Dems have taken for granted the quality of our national candidates in the last couple of elections. That's why we've been losing.
We've been losing because we have allowed the Republicans to control the narrative and define our candidates...
Change those two things, change the outcome.
Well then thank god we're going to nominate the candidate that won two thirds of the states, locked up the popular vote as early as February, has a HUGE pledged delegate lead, will have the SD lead shortly, expands the map (even to states that don't matter), brings reagan dems back to the party, adds a humongous youth vote, and has the honor to be good for his word after coming to an agreement with all of the other candidates with regard to Florida and Michigan.
Sheer spin, no substance.
He doesn't have those things? What part was spin?
crickets
Pretty stupid analysis - let';s decide what the battleground states are and decide that clinton can win them and ignore: the popular vote the pledged delegates
Clinton is history - that argument just doesn't fly. Clinton has simply had a poorly run campaign that started with every advantage and has managed to lose. Obama has weathered the ridiculous Wright flap and the math doesn't lie - clinton has no chance. In the general election Obama will do better - he doesn't have to defend a vote for the Iraq war (like Kerry), he doesn't have to defend being for Nafta before being against it, he doesn't have to defend a pandering gas tax rebate for the oil companies.
Time to unite around the democratic nominee and go after a vulnerable McCain. His age, his mistatements, his anger problems and his lack of integrity make him very vulnerable. Plus - he will say something stupid to damage his campaign or credibility.
Well, to state the obvious, she can't win the GE until she wins the nomination and as of last night Slate is giving her a 4.2 percent chance of doing that. So you can argue all you want about who would be the better candidate in the general election but if she doesn't get the delegates, she's never going to get there.
since she's losing the nomination. If she can't even get the majority of her own party to vote for her (with Limbaugh's help), how in the hell does it follow that she can win nationally.
I agree with an earlier comment; either could beat McCain. But it's the height of silly season to say that her chance is better when she's losing the nomination.
