want to see what the Obama campaign just put out:
Kenneth --

Today, the people of Wisconsin voted overwhelmingly in favor of a new kind of politics.

They rejected an onslaught of negative attacks and attempts to distract them from the common concerns we all have about the direction of our country.

No doubt we'll hear much more of these attacks and distractions in the days to come.

But the noise of these tired, old political games will not drown out the voices of millions calling for change.

Now is the time to join us -- add your voice to our movement by making your first donation right now. By giving through our matching program, your donation will be doubled by a previous donor who has promised to match your gift.

We are very close to reaching our goal of 500,000 people giving to this campaign in 2008. Help push us over the top by making a matched donation right now: . .  (donation link removed)

We won't know until late tonight the results of today's Hawaii caucus, but we'll let you know how that turns out tomorrow.

If we win in Hawaii, it will be ten straight victories -- a streak no one thought possible, and the best position we can be in when Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont vote on March 4th.

Thank you for making this possible,

Barack

this will be his narrowest win in 2 weeks, and it will be over 15 points, quite conceivable the 17 it is with 91% counted.  If the idiots like Mark Penn think this proves that their negative attack worked . . .

I note that the largest predicted margn was 13%.  But that pollster manipulated the data to account for expected turnout model.

I also note that early exits only had a 10% margin.

Obama outperforms the last round of polls.

What will she do in the debate on Thursday?  What can she do?

Would it have been different (sndeak - 2/20/2008 2:31:29 AM)
if Clinton had run off a streak of 10 straight wins? Would there be people calling for Obama to step aside?


YES! (The Grey Havens - 2/20/2008 2:40:04 AM)
They'd be calling for him to step aside!

Taking the White House is far to important.

This isn't about any one person, it's about the Supreme Court, the war, global warming, universal health care...

It's about winning this friggin election.

Anyway, I'm glad for this race as long as it goes on... it gives America that much more time to get to know Barack Obama.

It's all good.



There would be some (Rutchy - 2/20/2008 9:14:47 AM)
but many Obama groupies would hang in there.  Me?  I'm still waiting for John Edwards to break through.


In case you missed it (phillip123 - 2/20/2008 4:16:30 AM)
Barack Obama got a higher percentage 58% of votes in the Democratic primary than McCain got in the Republican primary 55%.  It is time for Hillary to drop out.


Now is the time (RuralD - 2/20/2008 9:21:13 AM)
So, I am wondering since Obama is going to be taking incoming fire from both Clinton and McCain (which certainly has seemed coordinated to me so far)

Is it time to look at the fact that McCain's chief strategist, Charley Black actually works for Mark Penn at Burson-Marsteller Worldwide . . .

So I think there is a distinct possibility they are at least sharing notes if not coordinating to take out a common threat.



Thanks,I just sent in $10 (proudvadem - 2/20/2008 11:21:00 AM)
I know it's not much, but I want victory in OH & TX.
I wish I could max out my donation but small donations DO add up! Can anyone match me?
