She got 9.2. Now she will attack Obama more and spend millions to tear him down. McCain doesn't need to raise millions in fund raising. He's has Hillary for that. The best part for McCain is that Hillary is spending money that her campaign doesn't have. Since McCain is dirt poor he needs the democrats to bleed themselves dry. Despite the mistakes that McCain has made in the past couple weeks, he has gained alot from the mudslinging of the democrats. Clinton's lying and Obama's associates haven't helped the democrats at all. She needed a 20 point win. She got 9.2. Now she will attack Obama more and spend millions to tear him down.

So far he has been clever enough to use his oratorical skill to talk himself out of a number of jams. But the more he relies on words the less substance we see. Kind of like a "three card monty" shyster or a pool hustler. He's mostly smoke and mirrors. The more we know about Obama, the less we will like him.

For a foregone conclusion that tells me that McCain has work to do in his party, too. I just read that Ron Paul got over 15% and Huckabee over 11%, though McCain got more than 72%.

Right now, people on both sides are fighting for their candidate to win. I don't think you can compare the desire to win with a continuing and crazy inability to admit you lost years after the election. Hillary has a better chance for the nomination now, and if she succeeds in the next few primaries, it will really test the DNC rules (which I still think they'll change after this one!).

She picked a gain of a whopping big 9 delegates. She's still roughly 150 delegates behind Obama, and the future contests don't favor her like Pennsylvania did. Unless there's a bolting of Super Delegates in her direction at the Convention or there's some mulligan in Michigan and/or Florida, she's still in trouble. Oh dear, what's that card Sawgunner. Queen of Hearts? Mom, you're only three years older than I. She’s still in trouble. She picked a gain of a whopping big 9 delegates.
