this question has been going over and over in my head since super tuesday.

what was the campaign expecting on super tuesday that they didnt get?  i can only think of two states-missouri and possibly connecticut.  but even if she would have won those states, it wouldnt have been a 'knockout blow'

see kiddies, this is a good reason not to ever hire mark penn.

The idea that Obama was so "prepared" is not necessarily true. THe states that followed Super Tuesday were all his, except maybe Wisconsin and that was sort of a bonus from the others. Despite his big winning streak he obviously didn't have that good a plan for Ohio or Pennsylvania.

But, yeah, Clinton should have handled February better. Much better. That's when she lost the race, imo.

they werent all his.  she gave them away.  there is no way that va should have been a nearly 30 point win for obama.  she could have done better in washington and maine.

she surrendered.  and built a march 4 'firewall'
