What I really, really enjoy about the current mainstream press is that somehow its over for hillary. Not to make a big mention of it, but our favorite website drudge is even asking, is this the end?
Is this the end for hil? she's maybe 1pt behind in NH (thats a tie, if you're into statistics). she's been leading or a close second in iowa. (I'm not going to link to these polls because you all know the NH & Iowa polls, if you want I can repost the links)
she's totally destroying the field in nevada....(http://www.pollster.com/08-NV-Dem-Pres-Primary.php)
She's up 8pts in the current CNN poll on South Carolina. (check out politicalwire.com to see that one)
And then things just start getting good. She's winning in NJ (http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x1299.xml?ReleaseID=1128)
Florida,(http://www.pollster.com/08-FL-Dem-Pres-Primary.php)
Wisconsin (http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/wi/wisconsin_democratic_primary-270.html)
California.. (http://www.pollster.com/08-CA-Dem-Pres-Primary.php)
And then there's the national polls.

Taking a look at the washingtonpost numbers, (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/polls/postpoll_121107.html) its not just that hillary is leading by almost 30 pts. its that she is the most trusted democratic on nearly every issue, including leading by 40 pts on the economy.

None of these mean anything. And all of these mean something.
Hil's candidacy is dead. Long live the candidacy.
