It looks like she went from a Beta Cup to a Zeta Cup in eight years.

Tom Hanks in “League of their own” said, “There’s no crying in Baseball!?!” I’m here to tell her, “There’s no crying in Presidential Politics!!!” She wants to be “Crier in Chief!!!”

“Paper ballots to anyone claiming they live in NH? This was a Clinton Rope-A-Dope.”

My thoughts as well. I also thought that it would be great to have another dim accuse her of voter fraud. Wouldn’t that be sweet?

The pollsters cannot explain why there were so wrong--other than saying that the 'single women' turnout and vote for Hillary exceeded their expectations.

I agree that with the enthusiastic support of single women nationally,,,

HILLARY CAN CRY HER WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!

MoDo has been railing against Hillary the last few weeks. Should we not wonder, then, who the Clintons will dispatch to change her view? Predictions?

Future threads will then contain CZJ pics as well as those of the babe the new guy ends up with, post-MoDo.

So...The democrats are concerned about the nations image abroad huh.

This otta play well with the countries that hate our guts. We could go from a mighty nation to a nation with a sniveling, teary eyed leader. Even though this was probably a calculated act by the Clinton machine, it leaves that impression that will be hard to shake of on the world scene.

I was immediately alarmed when I heard that they had “run out of ballots” and more were coming...FRAUD is the first word that came to my mind.

Crying didn't win the primary for her. Hillary won because she took the Dem base. In NH, self-identified Democrats made up 54% of the electorate. She won them, 45% to 34%. This is why Hillary will win the nomination. Obama is dead. He may win SC, but Hillary will clean his clock on Super Tuesday.

The real story is why is this race so close and why is Obama doing so well?

Obama was supposed to be the usual Dem token black candidate. His thin resume didn't appear to make him much of a threat. I credit his surprising showing so far as having more to do with Hillary's weakness as a candidate and her high negatives than Obama's great political skills. In the end, Hillary will take the nomination fairly easily.

Obama will meet the same fate as Chisolm, Jackson, and Sharpton. What will be interesting is if black Dems call in some chips and demand that Obama be placed on the ticket as VP given his showing in the primaries.

Obama has said he doesn't want to run for VP and who can blame him since Bill will be the co-president making the VP job even more worthless. However, the party may make him an offer he can't refuse. Obama has raised black expectations to a very high degree, so the party must do something to offset his defeat and not piss off their most loyal constituency. The Dem party is between a rock and hard place.

It is amazing that they were RIGHT ON THE MARK on the Republican side...but so wrong on the Democratic side.

I fear this because I am afraid that the passion for Hillary and democratic partywill GREATLY exceed the passion on the Republican side (especially is a liberal like Giuliani) is nominated. The turnout on the democratic side is scary.

>>and women come out of the woodwork to vote for her.<<

It is my guess that the tears influenced more more men to "come out of the woodwork" than women. I only hope it will be one of these foolish men who is working close to Hillary when things fall apart and the blaming starts.

Sorry--fixed the typos--I'll proofread next time.

I feel that Obama is a virtual lock for VP now.

The Clinton's will not want to take ANY chance of alienating ANY PART of the black vote--which is absolutely critical to them.

After all, they have never, ever let their passions and feelings get in the way of their ambition!!
