I will say Hillary had some good news that she finished a clear 2nd tonight
Edited on Sat Jan-26-08 11:38 PM by Herman Munster
Edwards is now marginalized and many of his working class supporters will be up for grabs as they switch to someone more viable. I disagree with people here who say Edwards voters are Obama voters and costing him votes.

Where Edwards has done well is with white working class dems without a college education. Hillary has also done well with these voters. Obama has not. He mainly gets white upscale dems with college degrees.

10. Riiiiiiight
Like calling someone an "x-inista" isn't the essence of a Reaganite smear.

Good work. Mega-dildoes. :thumbsup:

24. The Obama Hit Machine
has done an excellent job of marginalizing a candidate that
scares the right wing shitless. Poor Bill scratches his nose, they
scream rascist and the Corporate Media pounds it for days.

32. Is that what President Clinton was doing? Scratching his nose?
It seemed like another body part altogether...

33. Ah...I see
Edited on Sun Jan-27-08 12:47 AM by alcibiades_mystery
As long as you're providing substantive evidence....

:eyes:

Just to be clear, the charge was that Obama's support comes from a category called by AX10 "limousine liberals." I asked AX10 to support that contention. Your post, in that context, makes no sense at all. Just to be clear.

34. At this point the right wing is supporting Sen Clinton. They have plants right here in
River City (DU). They want Sen Clinton to win so they can attack her. In all the polls it shows that Clinton is the weakest against repukes.

Mr. Neutron, what's your stand on repeal of the Patriot Act?

18. AX10 I remember this from back in the day....Do not get caught in
Edited on Sat Jan-26-08 11:56 PM by BenDavid
the back of a limo when the revolution starts......

The mediawhores blew this state up so big for obama that obama had to win big and get all the support from the black community. It was good to see this suport but sad in the way Obama received it.....I will say it again and again it was obama that played the race card first and he was called on it by the clintons, but the mediawhores who dislikes both clintons took it from there and even accused the clintons of being bigots and racists......No one in the black community saw anything in response to let them know the clintons did not say or do anything to disrespect anyone, but the mediawhores would not have any of that shit....they wanted to pound and pound on the clintons until they the mediawhores knew there was no way hrc could win in south carolina......

then on top of that to help justify obama's win in south carolina they ran with a poll that had the white support for obama down to 10%....even someone that does not follow politics like I and many others in here knew this was a damn bogus number the mediawhores all threw out there because if obama on election night exceeded that number then the headlines out of south carolina would not be obama wins with large support of the black community but rather obama receives larger support from whites then expected....This would place the first page about black support on the second page and the mediawhores would be running this to help out obama across the nation as folks would see he was not just the black candidate....

But what will be will be and HRC will maintain her lead in all the states on 2/5 and she will win a great majority of them especially the big ones like new york and new jersey and california and many many more but I cede obama illinois and maybe alabama and georgia..... so enjoy 1/26 cause on 1/29 you obama folks will get a lil taste of what you will be tasting more of on 2/5....

22. Obama is on the ballot in Florida.
Hillary will win there. There is no "uncommitted" nonsense for the Obamites to cry about.

As you said: "so enjoy 1/26 cause on 1/29 you obama folks will get a lil taste of what you will be tating more of on 2/5..."

23. I completely agree with that quote. We'll get the taste of
Hillary winning no more delegates than Barack Obama. Oh, wait, that's the same taste we've had in every single state so far.

2. So your "good news" is now that Edwards is marginalized. Have any of the positive-spin threads
for Hillary actually been, er, positive spin for her? I've seen plenty of "Obama didn't win 70-year-old white men without a degree, so he's sunk" threads. I've seen plenty of "Obama is a black man and SC is a black state so nobody else will vote for him" threads. Now we have "Well, Edwards sucked worse, so maybe they'll all abandon him and vote Hillary now."

8. Herman hasn't posted a positive thread in weeks
It's all "This guy's a liar," "That guy's corrupt," "This guy's a loser," "These people are whiners."

HM has nothing good to say. It's attack attack attack all the time.

31. Indeed it does
The sun will come out tomorrow. It's less than a day away. It's quite telling, however, that in your one embrace of positivity you do not opt to say something positive about your candidate. But it's the other guy who traffics in generalities, eh?

9. Really a good second after all the mud and smear and lies thrown her way.
She did better than I expected. I thought that Edwards would win 2nd and that would have hurt Hillary really bad. Overall, this SC vote says a lot more about the people of SC than about either Obama or Hillary.

15. You expected Obama to beat her 2:1? Really?
You expected her to lose by 27%?

Now, when the advanced search feature becomes available again, will we find anything that says different?

What does it say about the people of SC? Please explain.
