Beyond codependency yet?
You know... I understand the psychological value of $14.99 prices over $15 and the important difference between single digits and double digits...
But really, if we are arguing about this is because we have already bought into Hillary's spin and fake reality.
Her PA win, no matter how big, has done nothing to help her. She is still behind and she still can't close the deal.
She spins because pulling the wool over our eyes is the only thing she has left AND because she has an audience. But we don't need to support her bad habits. Or do we?
What do you'll think? Is it time yet to stop listening to Hillary and remember, when she attempts to paint reality for us, how every Primary contest confirms that she can't close the deal?
I rather concentrate in the big prize: The Presidency. I liked how Obama contrasted himself to McCain in his speech last night, instead of giving his attention to Hillary.
Rather than arguing about decimals or anything else Hillary would have as spinning around, I'd just keep reminding everyone and myself that Obama is the unreachable front runner...

Hillary's spin is irrelevant. The fact of the matter is that Hillary was supposed to blow barack out of the water in order to close the deal. She did not do it.
It has to be understood that Barack is ahead in this race and hence he has no need to do anything major to Hillary. She is the one who needs an earthquake to shatter Obama's chances. It never happened. She lost her last chance to seal the deal.
Actually it was of more benefit to Obama more than it was to her. He got the chance to move his percentage points from 20 in the deficit to a mere 10. He got to establish a huge base for November and he met the people. The evidence is on the ground now. Hillary achieved no significant momentum from PA. Obama maintained his front runner status and built bunkers.

The danger is that she is looking to way the supers. She must know by now that she cant catch Barack in the primaries. She HAS to get the supers to GIVE her the nomination.
I think that all of her public spin is just an attempt to give cover to the supers. She is presenting the really ugly case to them behind closed doors.
