Not Exactly a Cakewalk is it now, Hillary?
Clinton looks to Texas, Ohio stop surging Obama - CNN.com
Sen. Hillary Clinton on Wednesday cast herself as a candidate who “relies not just on words but on work” as she eyed the upcoming Ohio and Texas primaries in hopes of stopping Sen. Barack Obama.
Clinton’s supporters said she must win those two states March 4 if she is to close the gap with Obama in the delegate race and stop the momentum he has built up with 10 straight wins.
Rhode Island and Vermont also will hold primaries March 4.
Clinton and Obama will be in Texas on Thursday to debate each other live on CNN at 8 p.m. ET. Early voting already began there Tuesday.
Obama scored overwhelming victories Tuesday in Wisconsin and Hawaii, his ninth and 10th wins in a row.
In the Wisconsin primary, Obama beat Clinton 58 percent to 41 percent, with 99 percent of the precincts reporting.
The senator from Illinois also won the caucuses in Hawaii, his native state, over Clinton 76 percent to 24 percent, with all precincts reporting.
On the GOP side, Sen. John McCain topped former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee 55 percent to 37 percent in the Wisconsin primary, with 99 percent of the precincts reporting. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas received 5 percent of the vote.
Also in Tuesday’s Washington state primary, McCain beat Huckabee 49 percent to 22 percent, with 57 percent of the precincts reporting. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney was third with 20 percent despite dropping out of the race.
For the Democrats, Obama has emerged as the front-runner following a split decision with Clinton in the Super Tuesday contests two weeks ago.
Haaaa..this s**t’s getting fun as hell to watch, isn’t it folks?
Hillary came into this little race thinking she had it all wrapped up and awaiting for her coronation.
Looks like we’re in some some ‘rasslin...
But what’s this?
‘Desperate’ Hillary asks Democrats to rewrite ballot rules - Daily Mail U.K.
(sorry couldn’t help myself. the title alone was worth the post. the picture on the article was just the icing on the cake)
Hillary Clinton revealed clear signs of desperation yesterday as she attempted to rewrite the Democratic Party’s election rules to boost her battle against Barack Obama.
Mrs Clinton wants the party to overturn its decision to strip Florida and Michigan of their delegates, after the states moved their primaries to January - without consulting national party rule makers.
Furious party chiefs ruled that the states’ votes would not count, with both Mrs Clinton and Mr Obama signing a pledge to endorse the decision.
However, the former first lady now wants all 303 delegates’ votes to be counted - which would put her in pole position to be the Democrat’s presidential candidate.
So far Mr Obama, who hopes to be the first black occupant of the White House, is ahead with 1,276 votes to Mrs Clinton’s 1,220.
A nominee needs 2025 delegates to become the party’s official candidate for November’s general election.
David Plouffe, Senator Obama’s election manager, attacked the plan, saying Mrs Clinton was “trying to rewrite the rules”.
Pass the beer and popcorn ‘round and settle in for a good one, my friends…

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
