I predict the Ohio debate is going to be a disaster for Hillary...
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 07:16 PM by Flabbergasted
Clinton: "Meet you in Ohio. Lets have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign."

She has given the strong impression that she's pulling off the gloves and is going to let us know exactly what she thinks about Barack Obama and his silly little campaign for the presidency during the Ohio debate. All he needs to do is provide the same answers and demeanor he always does.

She might throw off some good jabs but it's going to show the viewers someone who is undeniably desperate and unable to handle stressful, or seemingly hopeless situations.

Obama has been calm under stress thus far.

I think the decision will be clear.

Ohio goes to Obama along with Texas.

She was cool as a cucumber w/Tavis Smiley tonight. I couldn't
imagine Obama taking those direct questions so graciously ... never deviating from the party line. It was a great performance.

3. Obama needs to stay calm....direct his criticism at McCain....
He did masterfully in last week's debate. If he does half as well, that will be enough.

If Hillary goes nuclear, she will have to land a knockout punch or she will look like she is just flailing away....

I sense that Obama is not the type to get flustered by this

5. It'll be interesting to watch, that's for sure.
I was surprised at the reprised love fest in Texas what with the slings going back and forth between the previous love fest debate and Texas.

She almost has to come out swinging after her statement in Ohio.

But I continue to be surprised....
