    But Obama can say that Hillary can't get elected if she never criticizes John McCain.

    She will look like a dishonest hack if she suddenly starts attacking Mccain on the general election after praising him for months in the primary.

    He's wipe tehe floor with her.

      She pulled the same thing with Michigan. Act to block revotes for six weeks, then abruptly about-face and charge in on her white worse charging that Obama was blocking revotes and disenfranchising the people of Michigan.

      And at least parts of the media bought it, though it never got her the traction she needed.

      But no one in the MSM is portraying it as the hypocritical, dishonest two-faced behavior that it really is.

      Another typical white guy for Obama

        Trust me on that. I live here and am pretty plugged in. The consensus is that she totally bungled things and probably screwed herself.

        But, in my opinion, that was actually a good thing for her in the long run because Obama would have beaten her in a Micchigan revote.

        The reasos for that are complicated, but that's what would have happened.

        Also, you just saw the whole Mayor of Detroit mess blow up. Imagine if we had a primary taking place in Michigan -- and that diasco wa still playing out.

        Obama could dis Kwame Kilpatrick with no problem. Hillary would have to court him via back channel negotiations and it would eventually leak out.

        [Kwame runs a powerful machine in Detroit. Only Obama could afford to dis Kwame and still gin up black turnout in the city]
