Clinton To Blame Press For Obama Win

clinton is preparing the scene. obama wins and it's the media's fault. they, too, have sucked down the kool-aid.

after all, she's been arguing, if it wasn't for the fact that obama was getting so much exposure (she says of the good kind) then she would be doing better.

just another tactic for clinton. it's an expansion of the idea: obama lacks so much substance why is the media paying so much attention to him when i'm the one with the meat. the media doesn't set the agenda, much as they sometimes like to think. tv follows newspapers and newspapers follow the news. i would imagine the media also has probably crunched the numbers and realize that it's mathematically impossible for clinton to gain the lead unless she pulls off big wins in texas and ohio.

i would argue obama has gotten the worst of the negative press, all that underhanded yucky stuff, then there's all that negativity about his supposed "lack of substance" and the best of the positive press because he draws large crowds to his inspiring rallies.

clinton says the media should be digging up dirt on obama. maybe the press has dug and can't find any dirt? she says we know everything about her. do we?

as for obama, he said remember new hampshire and isn't taking anything for granted. the obama camp has moved on to mississippi, which has a primary on march 11.
