TALK OF HILLARY EXIT ENGULFS CAMPAIGNS Mon Jan 07 2008 09:46:28 ET

Facing a double-digit defeat in New Hampshire, a sudden collapse in national polls and an expected fund-raising drought, Senator Hillary Clinton is preparing for a tough decision: Does she get out of the race? And when?!

"She can't take multiple double-digit losses in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada," laments one top campaign insider. "If she gets too badly embarrassed, it will really harm her. She doesn't want the Clinton brand to be damaged with back-to-back-to-back defeats."

Meanwhile, Democrat hopeful John Edwards has confided to senior staff that he is staying in the race because Hillary "could soon be out."

Key players in Clinton's inner circle are said to be split. James Carville is urging her to fight it out through at least February and Super Tuesday, where she has a shot at thwarting Barack Obama in a big state. But others close to the former first lady now see no possible road to victory, sources claim.

Either way Hillary is finished after tommorow.

Her polling is collapsing around her.

Her campaign has been ruined by media hype about Obama.

You need to fear Obama, because like it or not he’s going to be a difficult opponent.

Obama is the greatest political fraud since Slick Willy himself.

For goodness sake America, please don’t let idealistic socialist students put Obama into the white house. Get out and vote this year!

I agree. Hillary started a fast fade back in Philadelphia and it was never the same after that.

Sounds like the Clinton machine’s strategy to create a second coming of the “Comeback Kid

I agree, that is their last ditch chance to reverse an electoral embarrassment. I don't doubt there are states she will win, and it will be a matter of parlaying the right victory into the "turning of the tide."

I’m still not sure what she said. It was weird.....like she lost her place in a junior high speech contest and just started making stuff up

These debates have been a godsend. They expose her at long last for what she is--a not very creative, mediocre intellect who has little ability to think on her feet. She is hardly alone in this, but the reality is such contrast to the carefully manufactured persona they have sold the public all these years.

Why do people believe this stuff?

Does anyone think that Joe Biden and Chris Dodd just dropped out not knowing that such a thing was in the works, were it true?

Come February 6th a lot of people here are going to wonder what happened ...

Miss Didi,

Thanks for your posts! I missed Rush today, and as soon as I heard about a tear coming from that cyborg Hidabeast I knew that EL-Rushbo would be all over that ACT!

Here's a pic of how the beast thinks of herself:

I do for one. Dems talk a good game, but alone in the booth, many of them won’t vote for a black candidate. On the other hand, almost to a man (or woman) they WILL vote for a woman, at least the majority. And then, there’s the matter of his middle name. don’t kid yourself, most dems still want to pull out the kneepads again for Bill. The only reason she’s running is it’s an end run around the constitution (always was 2 for the price of one). I see the sudden rise of the Magic Negro as a rejecting (finally!) of the ‘baby boomers’ by the younger generation.

Hillary doesn’t like the prospect of spending millions....all for nothing. She may give up based on the unpopularity polls....save her some cash!
