Hillary's campaign has been in the repair shop and is it back on the track?
It's although the wheels came off the racing car and it has had a long pit stop through the recent state primaries allowing Obama to eat up her base in the Potomacs.
Today we see a vicious onslaught at the media by her campaign to promote her. Now they are trying to say Obama is too intelligent for her base? Polls are showing leads in Ohio, TX and PA.

I guess Obama is going to have to step up the volume. Do you see her racing to the finishing line?

4. She's got a lame game in Texas
Lucky for her she has long-time support -- but we're testing it.

2. I hear the engine racing
but I think the wheels lost traction and are just burning rubber.

5. She pitted with blown tires with 2 laps to go, restarting dead last
Not going to help her win now.

6. I think the math is going to get her. She can't win enough big enough. Before she loses.

7. No. It's going to take until 3-4 for it to sink in, but the point of no return
is past now, which will become a littler clearer this coming Tuesday, but not enough for HRC to concede.

It's kind of sad to watch at this point. The pundits are going to have a field day writing the eulogies, though.

It's just too late for her to re-tool. All the Hillary supporters are now soooo counting on those superdelegates and it just ain't gonna happen. The SDs are not stupid. Obama is ahead in the popular vote by a little, but if you weight the caucus state voters it's easy to argue that he's waayyy ahead in the popular vote. Also, Hillary's strong in states that are going to vote for a Dem in the GE anyway, whereas Obama's shown some great strength in the so-called purple/swing states. If the SDs are not thinking "coattails" then they really are stupid.

Who knows, maybe they'll discover that Michelle Obama has an illegitimate white child fathered by McCain! Then all bets are off.
