But then, like Markos, I turned just in time to see Terry Mac grinning with Andrea Mitchell on my TV and images of Mark Penn and the other people that are so counter to what I beieve in as a Democrat began popping into my head dissapting any residual euphoria I had in the MSM taking it up the wazoo.

So I'm sitting here this morning after reading Markos' post pointing out that little noticed and reported on snide remark that Obama made in Saturday night's debate about Hillary saying her feelings hurt and replying, "I like you well enough Hillary" and wondering if Markos isn't indeed right.  My candidate, John Edwards, remarked in an interview latter with an equally disparaging tone and remark about her "emotional" moment before the press.  I'm wondering if that didn't torpedo any momentum he was carrying into New Hampshire after his 2nd place Iowa finish as well.

Now reality has set in and I'm torn.  On one hand I like the fact that my guy [Edwards] isn't completely out and the road to the Democratic nomination is a little muddier than before the polls opened at the expense of the two front runners and the MSM looking like the classless dolts they are.  But on the other hand there is the reality the brilliant Chris Bowers over at Open Left laid out depicting how the road to the Democratic nomination is heavily tilted and set up for Clinton through the superdelegates and the scheduling of the primaries.

Who knows, maybe this thing will go all the way to the convention deadlocked and everyone throws up their hands and nominates Gore.  I mean after all, anything is possible, right?  Like Hillary beating Obama?  [sigh]
