I will be FIRED from my job Hillary! |

if I lost 20-25% market share to my competitor in just over two months.
Hillary Clinton has dropped over 20% points in polls in a very short amount of time. She should have her speech prepared for Tuesday night to throw in the towel. If anything it is so EMBARRASSING to have lost so much steam in a short period of time. I have no confidence in her to beat McCain while she is already behind in the GE polls.
Can you image if your favorite baseball team gave up a 20 game lead in the division for a tie or narrow loss? The Manager (and General Manager) would most likely be fired. If your mutual fund dropped 25% in one month while the market was flat you would fire your mutual fund company and take your money somewhere else.

6. You're right - there's even less chance for a saving turn-around. |

Momentum is gained quickly and is hard to change in politics.

This is much more important than a job. Therefore these staggering drops are even more important than if I lost 20% in market share for my job.
The electorate is losing confidence in Hillary and that does not bode well if she wins the primary. We'll have the old fart Washington long-timer running against the not so old fart Washington long-timer. People want change, not Hillary.

4. It's ok to have a sucky operation if you are running for president. |

Her accountant approach to things, like Enron, can justify anything.

her supporters keep throwing money at her campaign. If it were a business, the investors would have inevitably bailed at some point during the last 11 straight losses leaving her with no choice to make. But then again, a lot of investors in Enron held on to their stock and watched it sink all the way to the bottom so I guess this shouldn't surprise me. Elections have more of an emotional component than investments, still....
