Picture of the Day - 3



That ticking clock I wrote about earlier just got a whole lot louder.

First paragraphs Wed. morning: (AP) "Barack Obama cruised past a fading Hillary Rodham Clinton...."

(Reuters) "Barack Obama has surged past Hillary Clinton to open a big national lead...."

(AFP) "Barack Obama pummeled...."

(NYTimes) "Senator Barack Obama decisively beat... accelerating his momentum.... cutting into Mrs. Clinton’s support...."

(WaPo) "dealing another significant blow to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose imperiled presidential candidacy now hangs on the outcome of showdowns in Ohio and Texas in two weeks."

  • Yeah, just brutal.

    This is the headwind they're fighting.

  • But, two weeks till 4 March.... that's a lot of column inches and air time to fill. The punditocracy is sure to be churning out a lot of negative, non-news crap in that time. Gotta sell ads, ya know.

  • Yeah, you have to figure that the language will soften from today's, but at the same time, after all the spin, I don't see the press buying into the Clinton campaign's story without some real proof.

    We are a long way from Mar. 4.
