Every joke that's ever been told about how the right needs the Clintons to survive is true. Hillary Hatred is the gas, the ethanol, and the rocket fuel of the staggering GOP. Logistically, it might mean the end of GOP crossover voting if the Democrats get their game together and pass new primary/caucus reforms when this Ragnarok draws to a close. (In the short term I can't decide if it's better for Hillary or Obama, but it's a probably a relief to both campaigns that Pennsylvania will be Democrats-only.)

What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Could'nt agree more,in Texas the right wing talk radio for days urged Republicans to vote for Hillary not because they like her but because they saw her as the one McCain could beat in Nov. which of course is the one these cross-over Republicans will vote for in Nov..In my mind her win in Texas really ment nothing as it was these groups who gave her the primary and I'm sure both her and the super delegates relize this...

The Republicans have had their plans for a showdown for with the Clintons for years, Obama really throws a monkey wrench in their plans especially since he attracts many indpendents and moderate republicans, Hillary gives the republicans the batte they're prepared for... Obama forces them into to go back to the drawing board,
at the same time the republicans just have to sit back and let the democrats fracture themselves in this drawn out primary process, we've got glimpses of what Hillary may resort to if she gets desperate against Obama
