Clinton and Giuliani Maintain Double Digit Leads!
Meanwhile, among Democrats, Hillary Rodham Clinton's formidable standing is unshaken despite escalating criticism by her rivals and disappointing reviews of her performance at last week's debate. The New York senator is backed by 50% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, compared with 22% for Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and 15% for former New Carolina senator John Edwards.

The Democratic race "is a locomotive with Hillary Clinton's face on it," political analyst Charlie Cook says. "On the Republican side, it looks like the TV show Survivor."

5. Suppose the choice for the Democratic presidential nomination narrows down to Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Which one would you prefer the Democratic Party nominate for president?

15. McCain
ran a good campaign and got the big lead.

Clinton can't do that now no matter what she does.

So barring the "live boy/dead girl" event, Clinton is all but written off.

3. Look at how one can lock up Southern wins by playing the race card to "consolidate" 90+% AA vote

7. yeah, that southern strategy that hilly so blatantly used didn't
work at so well for her. And Obama didn't just win the AA voters. He won a lot more than that.

4. It is very good to remember this now. Who would have thunk it?
Hillary had it all set in her mind about moving back into the White House. Damn, reality must suck and be a bitter pill to swallow.
