OK political junkies, here's what to look out for on Friday.
Even though we beat each other up, I love you guys. Here's some things to keep an eye on tomorrow (Friday before Nevada).

There's a couple things going on.

  • Two big newspaper endorsements have come out. 1 for Hillary and 1 for Obama. Keep an eye out on what kind of play they get.
  • Keep an eye out for any backlash for the UNITE Here ad. It's got to be the most negative ad so far in this race. It came from a third party, but it should still attract lots of attention.
  • The big one.... Keep an eye on the Clintons. The louder they are, the more trouble they're in. Expect them to be all over the press, but if they get whiny, that means they're in trouble.

1. Oh, and John Edwards is running too.
But by all means, don't let me interrupt.

5. I don't see what he can do that's an attention getter.
Though when I said something about the Unite Here ad, I was thinking about him.

11. As long as your thoughts were not behind the
Obama/Clinton/Obama/Clinton meme, then its all good.

After all, this country is TOTALLY over the Bush/Clinton/Bush/Clinton thing and are ready for a change rather than the M$M determined talking points.

:P

3. You can make that 2 newspaper endorsements for Barack...
He received the Reno endorsement today as well (I'm sorry, I'm blanking on the full name)...that's the offices he was at yesterday, right?

4. Clintons spreading disinfo on caucus sites
It's posted somewhere. They're intentionally telling people that if their company doesn't have more than 4,000 workers, they can't caucus on the strip. That isn't true, but that's what they're doing.

Does that qualify as loud? Or just routine political skullduggery.

12. Here's the caucus web site

I think the rules about the 4,000+ site is in the .pdf.
