1. I can't stop arguing on DU

even though it appears the race is pretty much settled. Somebody help me.

[durrrty libby]

10. lol......Don't sweat the small stuff

[jefferson_dem]

18. Hillary as establishment "front-runner". You bet your bottom dollar.

Settled. Nah...

[D23MIURG23]

31. Settled nothing.

The media fixates on Hillary, and treats her like the only candidate or the "inevitable one" and then the polls go her way. So far as I know Hillary is still neck and neck with the other two in Iowa, and Iowa not CBS polls made Carter and Kerry nominees. This isn't settled until the early states are in her column.

[BootinUp]

34. true

but she has the momentum in Iowa too. It seems to me the door is closing very rapidly for the other candidates.

[LadyAziz]

2. Is this even a scientific poll?

Wow, am guessing we should all vote for Hillary since she is the front-runner.

:sarcasm:

[MonkeyFunk]

13. Yes

it is a scientific poll.

[Botany]

3. This too just in from Iowa

Not a single vote has been cast.

Breaking .....

The early returns from New Hampshire show zero votes for Hillary Clinton.

They are not even subtle .... Queen Hillary it will be.

[JMDEM]

4. CBS as in

Totally fuck up the Plame interview on purpose? That network?

Blind blind blind. See no evil, hear no evil, hide all evil.

[Botany]

7. Kinda like the powers that be know any repug will get slaughtered ....

.... even with vote manipulation so "they" need to get behind the person who will help
keep the status quo. Hell, even support most of Hillary's positions but her vote on Iran
is her scarlet letter as far as I am concerned.

I have followed politics for years and have been active and in touch with many in the
democratic and progressive groups in central OH and know of not one person who
says, "Hillary, she is my first choice."

[Capn Sunshine]

16. you know, that MEDIA ARM OF THAT GIANT CORPORATION

whose president endorsed George Bush in the last election?

Don't worry, Hillary will not threaten status quo. Nothing to see here. MoveOn.

War without end, Amen, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAmen

[earthlover]

5. Zero votes so far for Hillary. That is four times the zero votes for Obama!

4 x 0 = 0

[youthere]

26. The OP isn't even subtle anymore..is he?

[D23MIURG23]

29. You forgot the Media vote.

Their primary is first you know.

[tabasco]

6. Where did they get this, WorldNetDaily, WSJ, or Drudge?

[rinsd]

15. It really is a nice picture of her.

:hi:

[emilyg]

11. I have a Hillary sticker on my car - and take full credit for the gain.

:applause:

[JI7]

[SaveElmer]

21. What a game.Okie and Papelbon were the icing on the cake

[desi]

24. Yep, and Big Papi..

came this >II< close to icing it early on. Speaking of ice, gotta check the forecast for tomorrow's game.

[NobleCynic]

25. From the same poll: Gore only 5% behind Clinton

when his name is included. 37% - 32%. The wording is kind of weighted toward Gore in the poll question, but still very interesting.

[jonnyblitz]

27. no wonder Obama is desperately whoring for votes.

poor thing.

[D23MIURG23]

28. "You are going by polling in a police state?"

Kasparov to Bill Maher on Putin's high approval in Russia.

[durrrty libby]

30. Could you make any less sense? Probably not

[D23MIURG23]

32. Follow the implications if you are capable.
