Official Anxiety Thread
For those of who are going to hurl ( mostly Edwards and Clark supporters ) I invite you to come sit, share a glass of wine, and hurl until this thing is put to bed.

Last update has Clark ahead of Edwards by 2... yes 2 votes.

MSNBC and they were tied at 13%. Of course they showed Edwards in the 3rd place slot and Clark in the 4th place slot. :grr:

Edwards needs 15% + to really damage Clark. It doesn't look like that will happen.

Edit: Relative to this Sunday and This morning when Clark was pronounced dead.

65. Carville making the point that a 1% is not a substantial win
He's referring to Dean/Kerry, but I apply it to Clark/other guy.
They're in co-third place coming out of NH.

They are both expected to be stronger down south.
Next stop: AZ, MO, SC, OK,...

Think how far Clark has come in four months.
Farther than Lieberman, Kucinich, Sharpton, Braun...

70. And accounting for Edwards' time and prior org advantage, plus IA,
Clark has covered a lot, fast, to be neck-and-neck on 'neutral' ground.
