If Hillary or heck even Edwards won the Iowa Caucus , Obama most likely would have been done. Iowa was a spring board for Obama as keep in mind before that win, most African American voters were supporting Hillary not Obama and a loss in Iowa would not have changed that.

EJ24,
Hillary should have used the Historic Nature being the first Woman President more.

Barack Obama used His Historic Nature being the first African-American President very effectivly. One of the many reasons I think he won the Nomination.

Renounce her Iraq War vote and hire people who know how delegates work.

Finding the Jeremiah Wright video earlier would have been the obvious one.

There was one gaffe she made at the debates that got a lot of negative attention -- they asked her about whether illegal aliens should get drivers' licenses, and she couldn't give a straight yes or no. Obama said in the debate, "I couldn't tell if she was for or against it"

She also needed a better response to her support for the Iraq War
