She has 'earned' her votes and even if it's been a bit 'under-handed' and a bit derogatory...hey, that's politics and you have to be tough to survive. So, Obama probably doesn't have the mettle or fortitude to win, if he can't take a beating from Hillary and respond appropriately. This basically comes from the Democratic Party not effectively jumping down from the fence to back a candidate.<BR/><BR/>So realistically,she might not have a chance, but pundits have been wrong before (read Dewey beats Truman), and why not fight for it if you still have a numerical chance...<BR/><BR/>To sum up.. as George Gershwin so aptly stated, "They all laughed at Christopher Columbus when he said the world was round.<BR/>They all laughed when Edison recorded sound.<BR/>They all laughed at Wilbur and his brother when they said that man could fly.<BR/>They told Marconi wireless was a phony, it's the same old cry..."<BR/><BR/>I'm not so ready to laugh at Hillary yet. It may be all but over, but it's still not over.<BR/><BR/>Bobby M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
