Liveblog: The West Virginia Irrelevancy
9:52 - Chris Matthews just called Mayor Willie Brown "Harold Ford Jr." Geez. I wonder what those two have in common that could have confused him...
9:46 - The night's over and it belongs to Hillary. We leave you with this final West Virginia fun fact:
FACT: Readers of the blog may be excited to learn that West Virginia was rated to have the second worst oral health in the country!
With this in mind, the Indecision 2008 team feels that the teeth of Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton are simply too elitist for the Mountain State (although Hillary does win points for yellowness.) That's why we're calling tonight's race for a write-in candidate whose oral hygiene is more respectful of working people! By the way, the state with the #1 worst oral health in the country? It's none other than next week's primary host, Kentucky-- surely McCain country!
9:29 - Ok, so Terry McAuliffe prepped us for Hillary's speech by telling us it would be the greatest speech EVER! So how did it rank?
9:28 - Best. Speech. Ever.
9:27 - Wait, a little boy sold his bicycle in order to send Hillary a campaign contribution? That sounds bad.
9:23 - Conciliatory words from Hillary: "I will work my heart out for the nominee to make sure we have a Democrat in the White House in November." She also says that the long nominating race as been a healthy process for whoever the nominee is.
9:21 - Hillary Clinton is clearly very serious about this race. It says a tremendous amount about her that she is delivering this speech as though everything is A-OK, even though every pundit and talking head has declared her dead on arrival. Is there anyone else in the country with that kind of resolve? Joe Biden and Chris Dodd battled on the evening of Iowa caucuses to each attempt to withdraw FIRST!
9:17 - Hillary: "I never give up. I keep coming back." There's really no denying that.
9:11 - Standard background behind Hillary for her big speech. Old person. Black guy. Adorable child. Bored looking teenager.
9:08 - John Denver reference! Didn't see that coming.
9:07 - Clinton's "victory" speech is starting. Ahh!! My eyes! That pantsuit! So salmon!!
9:02 - Current background music at Clinton HQ: "Free Ride" by the Edgar Winter Group. The song lyrics claim that the singer comes from Kentucky ... coincidence??

LAST COMMENT:
I wanted to scroll back to the first time I ever posted anything to take a trip down memory lane. But, because that takes like a year, I couldn't. It was fun to see everyone's viewpoints and memorable once from i guess the past month or so (seemed like a year getting here), from The "Fuck it I'll do it live" to a blogger worried she was getting censored, to the "Vagina/Scrotum debacle" the predictions and clips, it was cool. After getting tired, I found one of the irrational polls the irrational thinkers decided to place up here which was accurate by the voters: Hillary would have a Ned Beatty Style rear-ending like Deliverance. However, now she needs deliverance for Barack to win. I came on board somewhere in late March I believe, and it took too long to get back there. Maybe y'all can archive b/c I wanted to look at the old comments and articles. It's funny to see everything through the looking glass onions. Also, thanks for fucking up my sleep cycle for months. Work in a few. Thanks for a really incredible open forum. The best, objectively, I've ever seen on the web. Indecision is a kind word.
