Washington Speech Turnout
Quote:
Top White House contenders target WA caucuses

SEATTLE -- Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama competed for the loyalties of Washington state's Democrats Friday, with Clinton packing a small college gym in Tacoma and Obama following up his surprising endorsement from Gov. Chris Gregoire with a Seattle appearance before 18,000 people.

Inside Seattle's KeyArena, Obama spoke of health care, the environment and hope. The arena, home of the Seattle SuperSonics, was filled to capacity and Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels estimated 3,000 people were turned away at the door.
She was also complaining about not winning tomorrow because it was a caucus and people can't vote all day long and that she's broke and had to lend her campaign 5 million dollars (yes still). In her defense thought, there have been no reports that she's cried yet.

She did ask three nurses if they would be caucusing for her and they said that they couldn't because they would be working. This caucus system is so unfair to Hillary. MSNBC is so unfair to Hillary. People who have voted and will vote for Obama are so unfair to Hillary.

I bet they get off to vote off Obama! It's so terrible that everyone is so unfair to her. Maybe she should have to live in poverty on medicaid for a few months, then we will really see her cry! She has no clue what unfair is. By the way, great post!

Morgan Spurlock lived on minimum wage with his fiancee for 30 days and it was eye opening. Maybe she should.

How do you know she has no clue what "unfair" is? And if you're just refering to poverty, other than Edwards, can any of the candidates really relate to what it's like to be poor and on Medicaid?

I did not realize that Edwards' family were medicaid recipients. I also did not realize that Obama's family was well to do.

I would be interested to see your source for these biographical tidbits.

No they can't what makes it worse is they won't.
