ETBlogs Soapbox: How to spin it

    It looks like Obama won Texas after all Hillary said about winning Texas. She should have waited until she knew if she had won the caucuses or not. Atleast she got a lot of good press out of the deal.

    What really needs to get spun is just how desperate the Clinton camp was prior to March, 4. The "It's 3 AM And A Phone Is Ringing In The White House" ad was despicable fear mongering at its worst.
    If Hillary doesn't win every coming primary and caucus, she can't possibly close the delagate gap with Obama . She is obviously still hoping, perhaps planning for a backroom "superdelegate" deal that will give her the nomination despite the primary results.
    If that happens, this is one lifelong Democrat who will sit out this election. It would be the first time I'v done so in the 32 years I've been able to cast a ballot.
    My Clinton fatigue has reached its limit.

    If your Clinton fatigue has reached its limit, then clearly you're ready for a change. No specifics ever mentioned, just a change.

    Yes karen, I'm ready.
    And I do believe, with all the obvious uncertainties involved, Barack Obama represents that change.
    Hillary Clinton and John McCain, despite their superficial differences, are both part of the same bipartisan political class that got us into this mess in the first place.
