Is this unusal or not..(politics)

One would of thunk that Edwards would of easily one SC (He should of stolen the Favorite Son stance of Colbert Colbare) but instead... no where close...

Then in Neveda - the whole lawsuit with voting in casinos (suported by Clintons) - a gamble ironically orchestrated by Obama - backfired and Hillary wins...

This election season is full of more twists and turns than the writers (if they were not on strike) could of written for Desperate Housewives...


Let the writers stay on strike - this is getting interesting...

Interestingly enough I grew up in SC - and from my involvement in politics there (I actually hold the first ever documented success of a politician being elected with online campaigning)... loyalty with brethren is the norm. Look at the Riley family in SC - not in 20 years has not one been a mayor, governor or something important...

So, in ref to the last cycle - it was the fact Kerry was the big ticket and he was the puppet - nah never would fly... but you'd think...running on his own he'd have pull in his own state - he didn't even register... Beginning to wonder if folks in SC actually do have PCs now (joke at my inbreeding)....

None the less it was more interesting that Obama got c***holded by Hilliary in NEV...

hailripley is on a distinguished road
IMO, the Media wants - wants, wants, wants!!! - Hillary to be the Nominee because it's juicier Election coverage. I think Edwards is being short-covered because his message is a little too anti-corporate. Obama's a little iffy, Hillary is friendly and good material.

But yes - it's a hell of a campaign season, so far. The GOP is no less confusing. It's probably the best Election Season the Media has had in decades.
