Hillary losing the support of Hollywood to Obama has the potential to be an 8.0 Richter Scale political earthquake. She already had major electability/likability issues going in, which IMO were the major things fueling Obama's rise. If she can't even keep the Hollywood Left in her camp, how the heck can she hope to win enough votes in places like Missouri and Ohio and Florida to carry them?

Hillary's biggest problem now is that Obama just showed the world she puts that crusty old pantsuit on one leg at a time like the rest of us. A huge part of her campaign was the aura of invincibility and inevitability she had built up, with her name and her connections and her war chest and her taste for gutter-level politics and character assassination.

Obama just blew that to shreds by scooping up one of the crown jewels of democrat campaigning, and he did it without even breaking a sweat. Hillary's got to get back on top fast, and stop the bleeding like yesterday. Otherwise, the rumbling that's already going on in the media about her not being able to win will just get louder, and they'll start to bail on her. And if she loses the media, she's beyond dead.
