yet here he is doing pretty well in SC, and even among white men he is neck and neck with Hillary. Now, when is Hillary going to prove she can win:
men (huge gender gap overall)
African-Americans
Younger voters (49% for Obama tonight and strongly for him elsewhere)
independents (we will need them to win).

A vote is a vote is a vote no matter the colour of the vote caster.

2. The Clintons have twice won nationally. Won the second biggest state twice.

The only actual Republican Obama has beat is Alan Keyes and won tonite playing the race for all it's worth while giving Ronald Reagan a deepthroat blow job.

3. Nice try - but "the Clintons" are not on the ballot. Hillary Clinton has not won anymore national

elections than Obama has.

In fact, Obama has won more elections against more Republicans than Hillary Clinton has.

4. Obama has only won 1 statewide election? True or False?

Tell the truth about Obama so people will know how unqualified he really is. George W Bush beat Dem superstar Anne Richards and was re-elected. Obama beat Alan Keyes. Hillary has been fighting the bad guys since Watergate.

5. Hillary Clinton has won NO national elections, true or false.

You claimed "The Clintons" had won two national elections.

Trying to change the subject won't fly. You lied. And you got caught.
