Clinton:"Feb good for Obama, March good for HRC" ****Obama wins March***
The uncanny ability of the Clinton campaign to be 100% wrong on every aspect of this campaign has now been confirmed with the latest

results showing that Senator Obama has won more delegates in the months of January, February and March.

Senator Clinton's campaign spin at the end of February was that they were turning the corner. "We always knew February was gonna be

a good month for him,. . .March is gonna be a better month for us."

It turns out that, not surprisingly, the forecast of Clinton winning big in March was wrong - Obama won more delegates.

. . . . . . Obama . . . . Clinton

January . . . .63. . . . . . .48

February
Super Tues. 847. . . . . . 825
Rest of Feb 288. . . . . . 163.5

March . . . .209. . . . . . 206

Total. . . . 1407. . . . . .1242.5

and NBC's projected best case scenario for Hillary for Mississippi.


With only a single primary in April - Pennsylvania - Hillary will atlast have an opportunity to out perform Obama in a single month.

SuperDelegates

There is a clear deterioration of Clinton's SuperDelegate lead




Clinton's Super Delegate Lead

January 13 Clinton +96

February 17 Clinton +77.5

March 10 Clinton +39


The Clinton campaign's 'light at the end of the tunnel' prophecy has an eerie echo back to Vietnam where the 'light of the end

of the tunnel' turned out to be a mirage. This brings us to what can be the forecast for the future and another Vietnam saying

comes to mind, "Destroy the village in order to Save it"

Leaving us with the following questions:

a)Will Hillary Clinton having lost all hope in reducing Obama's growing delegate lead resort in a desperate campaign to sabotage

the general election campaign so that she can run in 2012?

b)Will Hillary Clinton build up a huge primary warchest to add to her $ 30 million GE funds (already in hand but cannot spend) for

future political warfare?
