"Drop dead, Bill."

lol!

I don't mean to be a wet blanket, but these people are survivors, a la Don Corleone.

I wouldn't count Themselves out.

I wouldn't count Themselves out.

I wouldn't either. But what this does is to force her heinous away from her script and it applies negative pressure to her machinations. And she has ably demonstrated in the past that she does well in neither situation. We are seeing a set-up for a scream moment.

Maybe not, but it sure is nice to see Mrs. Clinton bloodied.
Hopefully she gets a serious beat down next in N.H.

“i wouldn’t count themselves out.”

you said it. they’re too cunning to be put out by some primary in “flyover country”. look closely at their campaign and you’ll see the devil in the details.
They are truly inevitable.

All it takes is a 4 year old with bug spray when the time is right.

I agree with you. I wouldn't read too much into the Iowa results.

For one thing, the format isn't exactly representative of how the country will vote in a general election. Secondly, recent history indicates that candidates who WIN Iowa hardly ever WIN their parties' nominations anyway.

One thing worth noting, though, is that turnout was very high -- which to me indicates: (1) enthusiasm about one or more candidates, or (2) a sense of serious discontent among voters. The first point can't possibly be the case, since both the Republican and Democratic fields are littered with abject mediocrities -- some of whom have such miserable political qualities about them that they couldn't even lead someone out of a burning house.

The odds at this juncture, even though it's early on, the 'beast won't win her parties nomination.
She's toast ... and I suspect they know it already.

“these people are survivors, a la Don Corleone.”

Yeah, for sure they are survivors. Unfortunately, those who get in their way, tend to not be so. Anyone remember Vince Foster? I hope Obama’s Secret Service team has it’s “A” game going. They should keep on special alert for any ex Arkansas State Troopers sniffing around for sure...

[fella]

a la Don Corleone.

Husain and Edwards had better spend a lot of extra money wacthing out for themselves, their families and their pets. Accidents and suicides just seem to happen when people appear to threaten the Clintonistas.

[rod1]

Exactly right...

NEVER count out the Clintons until the last rug has been rolled.
