The MSM may be unknowingly helping Clinton - she is going to...
garner quite a large number of 'lets kill hill' backlash votes from the medias continual pounding. The public as stupid in general as they are, do have limits as to how many times you can kick the dog. Also I have noticed over the years that people who react that way to a candidate in majority become fervent backers. I do not believe that is the effect the other candidates and their supporters are hoping for.

A long process yet, and lots of turns in the road. We'll have to see if Hillary is a true Democrat and can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory as the old saw goes.

5. Nope. Showing weakness never works for votes.
But it is an indication of how intense the exhaustion is.

6. Even I am feeling kind of sorry for her now.
I get a bit defensive because she is a woman and I think she has been treated differently because of that. I still sway toward Edwards at this point, but you may be onto something.

7. I thought the same about Dean in '04.
That there would be a backlash driven drive to the polls for him in the final days of the NH Primary.

Sadly, it didn't happen. :(
