Hillarys been done, and people are starting to feel it. Its ok people...just let it go, it ok. She onluy went for the latino vote anyway in Texas instead of the entire STATE of Texas. She didnt want to win if thats how she was thinking.

Big Dog,

Hillary will be the nominee.

I really hope the Obama campaign is working hard and not getting complacent. Cockiness is one reason they lost NH.

I don't think they lost NH for cockiness, cause that man rallys non-stop in states you woul dnever think of him to. I think NH is a state that would definitely lean to Hillary no matter what....as they did I guess.

Dev, I can completely understand backing a candidate and hoping they get the nomination. Let me ask you - if Obama gets the nomination, will you support him?

Cockiness can kill. I see it everywhere, it is very disturbing.

The only way you win is by believing you are about to lose every single minute until you actually win!

Wrong. Cockys don't kill; people do.

There's a difference between confidence and cockiness. Without confidence, one can come across as desperate and that can kill too. Obama has faced adversity every step of the way and has shown great confidence - it's one of the reasons why I think he'll make a good leader.

Agreed. He's confident. A lot of his 'people' in the blogosphere sound cocky though.
