His campaign is GROWING, hers is DECLINING!!!
Unless the fix is in, she should be conceding Tuesday night -- except for the fact that she is Ms. Hitlery the parasite who will cling to power with all her fingernails, therefore destroying Obama for November, right?
"In smallest N.E. states, big battles"

BRATTLEBORO, Vt. - .... In Vermont, where polls show Obama is 15 or 20 percentage points ahead, voters are better educated and mostly white; they strongly favor grassroots campaigns and have shown a great fondness for political iconoclasts. In Rhode Island, where Clinton is clinging to a lead, the electorate is largely working class, Hispanics are becoming more influential, and an old-school Democratic machine remains largely intact....
Over the last week, the race has grown especially heated in Rhode Island, where a recent Brown University poll shows Obama within 8 percentage points of Clinton.
Both candidates have dispatched their spouses and surrogates to campaign here, and last Sunday, Clinton addressed several thousand people at Rhode Island College, where she spoke sarcastically about Obama's themes of hope and bipartisanship, saying she knew better than to think that "the sky will open, the light will come down, celestial choirs will be singing, and everyone will know we should do the right thing, and the world will be perfect."
I'm personally offended by her sarcasm. Not a nice feature, Hitl!!!
The world sure isn't going to get any better under your globalist watch!
Yesterday at the same recreation center, addressing a crowd of more than 5,000 - not including about 5,000 more who were turned away for lack of space, Obama responded in kind.... The boisterous crowd cheered after virtually every line uttered by Obama....
Vermonters' excitement about Obama - and his inspirational message - seems positively feverish. Hundreds of canvassers are going door-to-door this weekend. When the campaign recently asked Deb Shumlin, a jewelry maker and the wife of state Senate President Peter Shumlin, to organize a small audience in Putney to listen to Anthony Lake, a former national security adviser to President Clinton and now an Obama foreign policy adviser, the aim was to get 25 people. Shumlin was astounded when 325 people showed up.
"People were just so grateful," she said. "They didn't care that Barack wasn't showing up. . . . They just want to hear more."
Explains the Ron Paul "phenomenon," too!!!
WE WANT THE TRUTH, dammit!!!!
P.S. I live in Massachusetts.
And the excitement is not merely confined to liberals. Shumlin said her father, an auto mechanic, has placed an Obama sticker next to his NRA sticker on the back of his rusty
ALL RIGHT!!!!!!!!
And Clinton tries to say Obama can't beat McCain!!!
Talk about crossing party lines!!!!
Obama's popularity in Vermont also has partly to do with his early opposition to the war in Iraq, which is extremely unpopular here. (Brattleboro not only voted to impeach President Bush last year, but at its town meeting on Tuesday, residents will vote on whether the president and Vice President Dick Cheney should be arrested for war crimes, should they ever set foot in Vermont.)
Yeah, I like it just up the road!!!
"As a Vermonter, it feels like we're trying to wake the rest of the country up," said Ezra Distler, a 26-year-old photographer and Obama supporter.
All citizens of conscience are, sir!
Garrison Nelson, a political scientist at the University of Vermont, also noted that the state has a rebellious streak - it was the first to abolish slavery and the first to allow civil unions for gay couples.
"The Clintons are the establishment," he said....
ABSOLUTELY!!!
She's the continuation of George W. Bush and the Globalist Plan.
To Clinton supporters like Scot Borofsky, a 50-year-old artist and construction worker from Brattleboro, Vermonters' fascination with Obama is bewildering.
Ha-ha, idiot!
"I've been joking that I'm the last feminist in Brattleboro," said Borofsky, who says Clinton is by far the most experienced and the best-equipped to take on likely Republican nominee John McCain. "The last time women voted for a man because he was good-looking and had charisma, we got Bush. I'm shocked that they have been seduced away from this opportunity."
What a BOZO!
What else would you expect from a Clintonite?
.... In Rhode Island, Clinton's prospects appear much better. She has backing from a huge portion of the state's political establishment, including US Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, Providence Mayor David Cicilline, and the state treasurer, secretary of state, and lieutenant governor.
The institutional support reflects the Clintons' long history with Rhode Island, political observers say, and both Clintons have visited the state many times over the years to raise money for local politicians or visit friends. State Democratic Party chairman Bill Lynch said this has given Rhode Islanders, who are used to intimate campaigns, the sense that they know Hillary Clinton.
"Rhode Islanders expect to actually meet or see the candidate in person because they're so used to it," he said.
But Lynch also said that outsiders underestimate the inroads that Obama has made here, noting that thousands of new voters have registered in the past several months. Darrell West, a political scientist at Brown University, said Obama had outspent Clinton on television advertising in the state, and his 11 straight victories have generated new interest here.
"Rhode Island should be Clinton country, because we have a lot of women and senior citizens and working class voters, and they are exactly the types of people who have supported her in other states," he said. "The only thing she has to worry about is that in Maryland, Virginia, and Wisconsin, she started to lose those constituencies. That's really the $64,000 question of this campaign - whether she can hold her base."
If she CAN'T HOLD HER BASE how is she going to win a GENERAL ELECTION?
Good Lord, readers!!!!
If Bay Bender has anything to do with it, she will. Bender, a 90-year-old volunteer from Cranston who helped on both of Bill Clinton's presidential campaigns, spent Friday afternoon making calls for Clinton at the Providence headquarters.
"I think she's smart, she's strong, she's progressive," she said. "Words are very cheap. It's action we need. I've been on this earth a long time, and I know that."
And as four young Clinton canvassers made their way through a neighborhood on the city's north side on Friday, most of the people who answered their doors said they were for Clinton, too.
But as she waited for Obama to arrive at Rhode Island College yesterday, Joan Marasco, 61-year-old therapist from North Providence, said she felt torn over whom to support. She said she was proud of Clinton and wanted to see her, as a woman, succeed, but she said she was also impressed at how Obama had inspired young people.
I'm past the sexism; I vote for people based upon their positions and policies, as well as their judgments.
Hitlery fails on all levels.
"We need a superhero," she said."
No, we need a PRESIDENT WHO PUTS AMERICA FIRST, SECOND and THIRD -- not ISRAEL!!!!!!!!
