Calvin Coolidge’s wife, Grace Goodhue Coolidge, recounted that a young woman sitting next to Coolidge at a dinner party confided to him she had bet she could get at least three words of conversation from him. Without looking at her he quietly retorted, “You lose.”

......Its an emotional election not an educated election.....

But many are educated enough to know they don't want another clintoon in the WH it seems.
Eight years of the clintoons was an education. A bad education to be sure. But enough so that many do not want a "replay",
Just sayin'.....

And I believe McCain might could defeat Hillary.

What a smooth talker.

Get Hillary while she's in your sights. Remember, a dead bird in your hand is worth two in the bushes.

But she still gets delegates. What a screwed up system.

I disagree. While I believe in the Electoral College I have no problem with states like Maine that award via Congressional district.

Now of course this is a primary season but if the Republicans didn't have a winner-take-all format for so many contests then we would have seen a continued battle that McCain never would have survived. The winner-take-all format, when split among multiple candidates, allows for manipulations/deals such as we saw in WV. Nominations should be hard to achieve - not easier. The threshhold for number of delegates one would need to win the nomination would have to be lowered but I like to see a better representation of the party's support spread out. It allows the eventual winner to tailor their message to those concerns raised and at the same time seems to allow a more representative view of the depth of conservative opinion. Fred and Duncan could have very well still been in the mix until Super Tuesday and beyond. Candidates would still be cutting out but their totals would better reflect their success and failure.

But again the Electoral College is a little different because then essentially only two candidates are in the hunt and the whole idea of winner-take-all has a better application. Still imagine if , say, California, was not always a surefire win for Dems but was split up (and yes visa-versa)?

Hill has lessons in abusing power at Bill’s feet,,she would be more dangerous in that respect but she is not the unknown that obama is. Either he will be so bad, he would be a one termer or worse.

I don’t know but I know it is deeply satisfying to see that mean white woman defeated.

Oh my God, GET HER OFF THE STAGE. Typical Clinton gabs on and on and on and on but she has NONE of Billy’s speaking skills. Democrats are against torture? They should be for a Ban on Hillary ever speaking in public again.

This is just gastly

Is this the first time the people in Wisconsin have been proud of their state?

20K at Obama's rally in Houston. He slipped it in thanking the little girl for reciting The Pledge.

I think that Hillary had a high school gym half-full of sleepy seniors.

The one thing I can’t and won’t miss... Hillary’s ultimate and final concession speech.
