I know how Obama can upstage Clinton Tuesday night
He's going to get drubbed Tuesday night. Fine, we get the message. But he can take control of the news cycle, if he can pull something out of a hat, and time it to coincide with the polls closing in West Virginia.

For example: The Obama campaign could arrange for Al Gore to endorse the candidate and time the announcement to be made two minutes before the West Virginia poll closing. Something along that line.

2. I appreciate the sentiment and the spirit
But I say let HRC have her night. To do otherwise seems petty and ... well, petty is enough.

Wednesday morning, however ...

FWIW, do you think Gore will really endorse in the primary?

4. I think he's too much of a gentleman to do something like that.
All signs point to him letting her have her night.

It's not going to make a difference anyway.

5. That would seem kind of petty, don't you think?

6. Um.... let's call in a new scriptwriter before this gets too weird, OK?
Sincerely,
