does hillary only get emotional when someone has expressed how great she is? "you like me -- you really like me!"

elmo argonaut, Monday, 4 February 2008 18:41 (sixteen years ago) link

that's nice

does hillary only get emotional when someone has expressed how great she is the day before a major primary?

gabbneb, Monday, 4 February 2008 18:44 (sixteen years ago) link

I wonder if, and to what extent, Obama's nat'l "surge" is based on Democratic voters believing that he'll match-up better against McCain. He certainly is making that a big part of his closing argument.(n.1)

a run-down of state-by-state super tuesday expectations from the obama campaign:

elmo argonaut, Monday, 4 February 2008 18:47 (sixteen years ago) link

softening expectations is probably a good move, continuing to cast their candidate as underdog

elmo argonaut, Monday, 4 February 2008 18:49 (sixteen years ago) link

not really, xp

o damn

I think the super delegates will mostly go in a herd toward the clear front runner as soon as they know. I have no idea what's going to happen tomorrow, from my POV the tea leaves don't look good, but then again the polls have been all over the place.

chris rock robocalls for obama! audio here: http://media.putfile.com/Chris-Rocks-Robo-Call

elmo argonaut, Monday, 4 February 2008 19:30 (sixteen years ago) link

honestly, obama seems to be really banking on star-power to GOTV tomorrow but it seems like a really risky play

elmo argonaut, Monday, 4 February 2008 19:33 (sixteen years ago) link

You know, Chris Rock is free to make whatever jokes he wants about women but I wouldn't have him out there representing my campaign.

daria-g, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:17 (sixteen years ago) link

i was just posting it as 'lol celebrity robocall' but i guess you can characterize him as a misogynist if it makes you feel better

Bill Richardson can grow as many beards as he wants, he still looks like Horatio Sanz.

Nicole, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

can he?!

roxymuzak, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:35 (sixteen years ago) link

He pastes them on his chin if he needs to.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:37 (sixteen years ago) link

Curt1s and hurting, it's not too late to register to vote in November. You can expiate your sins (it is February, after all) by getting registered now.

Michael White, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:55 (sixteen years ago) link

The former president and Richardson planned to watch the game together at a private residence in Red River, a community of about 500 people in the mountains of northern New Mexico with a small ski area that attracts winter visitors because of the wang.

HI DERE, Monday, 4 February 2008 20:56 (sixteen years ago) link

an insanely optimistic view for obama on tuesday:

http://www.thenation.com/blogs/thebeat?pid=279743

it kind of reads like "if obama gets california, and massachusetts, and alabama, and alaska, and colorado, and the northeast, etc etc etc, he'll lock the nomination up"

there's no way i'm investing anything in this article.

Send it to the patent office. That outcome is as guaranteed as a Patriots' undefeated season.

i'm just going to assume everyone has seen that will.i.am "yes we can" music video so we can just note its existence and move past it

Obama doing better against McCain across the board

gabbneb, Monday, 4 February 2008 21:12 (sixteen years ago) link

To be honest I'm feeling about as optimistic about tomorrow as I was about the Pats undefeated season. (Not very.) I guess I better start watching NASCAR, it's only a little over 2 weeks before the Daytona 500 and I don't have a favorite ever since Dale Sr RIP.

daria-g, Monday, 4 February 2008 21:13 (sixteen years ago) link

Super Tuesday is coming just in time, bcz if it was Friday I'd likely think Obama isn't worth it, and stay home.

Dr Morbius, Monday, 4 February 2008 21:16 (sixteen years ago) link

“We’re only going to score 17 points?” Brady said before chuckling about it. “OK. Is Plax playing defense? I wish he had said 45-42 and gave us a little credit for scoring more points.”

Plaxico Burress: Plz to give the Patriots -- AND HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON -- a little more credit.

maybe it's best if Limbaugh and Hannity end up being the agents that really destroy the GOP.
