HILLARY CLINTON

Republicans For Hillary, For One Day At Least

I myself am not one to cross over into the other guy's primary, but early anecdotal evidence suggests that Campaign Spot readers in Ohio and Texas are voting for Hillary.

Rush is urging his listeners to vote Hillary, too. This letter contends it is because he wants the weakest candidate, but the bottom line is that the longer the Democratic primary goes on, the more Hillary and Obama spend their resources hitting each other instead of McCain.

Today is being called "Super Tuesday Two," but I think the proper analogy is Groundhog Day; unless Hillary sees the shadow of a landslide defeat, we're in for at least six more weeks of campaigning. If she survives today - and I think she would have to be blown out in both states to really build pressure on her to get out - the next major contest is Pennsylvania, on April 22. On Saturday, Democrats in Wyoming vote, and Mississippi heads to the polls March 11.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Hillary eke out victories in both states today.
