This Obama Supporter Is NOT Counting Hillary Clinton Out. She May Stage Her Comeback
and anyone who thinks that is not possible is a fool.

Over confidence is how you drop the ball.

3. We aren't playing the prevent defense
There are already ads going on in Ohio and Texas. Obama and his crew are going full bore so he can get the nomination.

4. And the Clintons are old pro's. They play hardball. There may be ugly stuff. From SOMEBODY
Edited on Mon Feb-11-08 11:43 PM by cryingshame
not the Clinton campaign directly. But we can count on it.

And that is not an indictment. It's freaking politics today.

7. Yes, she could surprise in VA or WI and she'll be very tough in TX, OH, and PA. We've got a ways
to go before champagne can be uncorked

She's ahead in the polls.

8. It's like stepping on what appears to be a dead snake
Really. Better cut the head off first. With a long-handled hoe. Then wait a couple of days. Then step on it.

Don't you love Texas illustrations?

10. For sure no one is out yet..it's still neck and
neck and I'm also sure Obama and his campaign crew are not letting any moss grow under their laurels..they're busy going forward until they do win this thing.

11. This thing is long from over
The knives are just being sharpened at this point.

The Clintons don't know how to lose and if they do, I think it is going to be a spectacular flameout.

13. It still feels like Obama is the underdog to me.
I know that he has the MO, but Hillary & Bill are never say die types.

14. The Obama team seems well versed in Clinton comebacks.
As they are in all Clinton tactics. They keep their head down and just stay on track.
As Michelle said on LK tonight, until Obama is in the Whitehouse they consider him
the underdog.

And so do I. And so should we all.

15. Highly unlikely. She needs to sweep TX, OH, and PA. It won't happen.
It cannot concievably happen.

19. A Virginia win could set her right again
But she's got to win something this month and I don't see her taking Wisconsin necessarily. I don't think Ohio and Texas will be the cakewalk she thinks, either.

However, I don't count her out - that would be silly.

21. Agreed
Obama supporters are getting way too cocky. I still refuse to even get my hopes up about him becoming the nominee...I'd still give her the edge.
