It probably won't happen, but I would just laugh my ass off if Hillary pulls out a win tonight |
|
The collective punditry will look like the biggest fools in the world. I wonder if she eeks out a win by 1 or 2 points that they'll say it was still embarassing......she should have won by 20 points.

...inexplicably in the position of actually pulling for her. I detest Clintonism. But not as much as I detest the dishonest abuse that's been directed at her in the last couple of days.

the pundits would say that she lost because it showed she only appeals to them stubborn New Hampshire folk.

Quite hilarious in the short term.
Bad for the country in the long term.
Don't trust politicians who will do ANYTHING to stay in power.

6. I'm already having a chuckle because the collective punditry |
|
had crowned her months ago, and now they are scrambling too.

7. No even if she loses by a close margin the pundits will say she is "coming back" |

8. Let's face it--Hillary's damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. |
|
But I have to admit, I agree it would be kinda cool to watch her win tonight and deliver a huge smack-down to the MSM and all the other anti-Hillary types who are circling around her, fangs bared.
That being said, I would be more than ecstatic if Edwards made a good showing.
Almost time, folks!

11. Quite honestly Herman, I'd be stunned |
|
It would be a HUGE divergence from how we thought we'd turned people out.
Almost like we gave a bunch of Hillary supporters rides to the polls.
I'll say it again: this ain't over by a longshot no matter who wins tonight.

12. It would be even funnier if Kucinich won. The humor is derived from its improbability. |

I just want her to have a strong showing, regardless.

14. It would be rather funny |
|
But the problem is that her strategy going in was for NH to be the knockout punch for both Obama and Edwards. They had figured on such strong showings in the first two primaries that everyone would just drop out.
