Still A Long Way To Go

The Green Room is proud and happy with Senator Hillary Clinton's performance in the Super Tuesday primaries. A thank you to all those who went out and voted...for anyone.

Both Hillary and Senator Barack Obama had amazing nights yesterday. Obama carried a total of 14 states with a key win in Missouri. However, Clinton took home the night's top prizes, which were California, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts. Take that Senators Kerry, Kennedy, and Governor Deval Patrick.

On the GOP side, Mike Huckabee performed quite well but it looks like the GOP nominee will be Senator John McCain. Mitt Romney had a bad night but has vowed to stay in the race.

Thank you to all who voted.

Things are looking good for McCain. I'd rather have Mitt Romney win the Republican nomination because I think he is a weak candidate and a Democrat will have an easier time fighting him for the presidency.

As for the Democrats, the time is critical for Hillary Clinton. She is leading comfortably in some states but I'm still worried. I know she can do this and win over Obama. She is the best candidate. I especially want her to win in my home state of Connecticut where it is essentially tied at the moment. She can do this. We can do this. Go HILLARY!

The media is very much against Hillary. We cannot let this stand.

Pollspot: Republican National

Sen. John McCain leads a national Rasmussen tracking poll for the Republican presidential nomination. However, his lead of 17% is not statistically significant since his rivals are all within the poll's margin of error. Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee are a point behind at 16% and Rudy Giuliani is two points back at 15%. Slightly off the pace, but still within five points of McCain, is Fred Thompson at 12%. This would make it a 5-way tie.

Among Democrats, Sen. Hillary Clinton leads with 31% followed by Sen. Barack Obama at 27% and John Edwards at 21%. The poll has a margin of error of 4 points.

Key finding: Clinton has dropped 7 points in two weeks while Edwards has gained 6 points and Obama has gained 3 points.
