Wall to Wall Ugly
Your Daily Politics Video Blog: If you were spared watching it in real time, relive the awfulness of last night's ABC debate in today's episode of TPMtv.
From the Politico:
A new Rasmussen poll shows that most Dems want the race to go on and are split on which candidate should withdraw, despite Obama’s nearly insurmountable lead in the popular vote and pledged delegates:
Twenty-two percent (22 percent) of Democratic voters nationwide say that Hillary Clinton should drop out of the race for the Democratic presidential nomination. However, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that an identical number —22 percent — say that...
The Obama/Clinton campaign back and forth is getting heated, as the Obama camp released a memo calling into question Hillary Clinton’s experience.
The memo reads:
"When your entire campaign is based upon a claim of experience, it is important that you have evidence to support that claim. Hillary Clinton’s argument that she has passed 'the Commander- in-Chief test' is simply not supported by her record."

Clinton held her base of core Democratic voters, which is sure to raise questions on Obama's electability with rank and file Democrats. The final voting totals are still being tallied up, and the margin can still shift slightly.
It’s down to the wire for Hillary Clinton. Or is it? Many, including her husband, said she has to win both Texas and Ohio, but it now seems that she’ll probably go on if she only carries Ohio. This morning, on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Clinton advisor Terry Mcauliffe
said his candidate will win Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island, and so far, according to today’s polls, it looks pretty good for her. The tides may be turning. But let’s back up for a minute. Journalists like Jonathan Alter are arguing that it’s...
When Russerts Attack
Your Daily Politics Video Blog: The standout performance of last night was Tim Russert's repeated tirades at the candidates for not answering his clownish questions. So we thought we'd string all of Tim's gonzo moments into one tight reel. Let's all repeat together, "I'm rough enough, I'm tough enough, and doggone it, people like me!"
