It ain't over till it's over.
Unlike war, in politics you can get killed many times.
Posting this doesn't mean I support Hillary but I'm sure her victory in N.H. is sending some guys here into apoplectic fits.

Defying Predictions and Some Dire Polls, Clinton Escapes to Fight Another Day
By ADAM NAGOURNEY
Published: January 9, 2008
MANCHESTER, N.H. — New Hampshire kept Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton alive.

Her victory in the Democratic primary on Tuesday night was portrayed by her campaign as a stunning turnabout. Given how dire her situation had appeared just hours earlier, the spin was not unjustified.

In the end, she survived because registered Democrats preferred her to Senator Barack Obama, though independents went for him, according to exit polls. And she benefited from strong support among women, a constituency that she worked hard to appeal to in the campaign’s final days here.

Mrs. Clinton is now likely to be able to appeal to donors for more money for what is shaping up as a protracted battle against Mr. Obama. The internal squabbling about her campaign’s management and strategy is likely to be quieted. And she will no doubt go forth making the obvious comparison: that just like her husband 16 years ago, she is now well positioned to battle her way to the nomination.

But Mrs. Clinton faces an opponent who has lately seemed to embody a movement rather than to be a mere political candidate. He has at times been an elusive target, lifted on the wind of nationwide anti-Washington climate change. She has often seemed to be frustrated in seeking to challenge his level of experience, his consistency, his positions or his electability against a Republican Party candidate.

Are you kidding? This is great news for the Republicans. We want so badly to have another crack at a Clinton in an election.

I was more worried Obama was going to win and then we'd be nauseated with the Obama O wave.

It's still too early to tell...maybe next time Obama will try the "Crocodile Tears"?
