Yes We Can!
Calling Obama's second place finish in New Hampshire one of the biggest upsets in modern history is a bit of an overstatement. If the main stream media, pundits and pontificators over hype a character and then are proven completely wrong is the candidate, who 5 days earlier didn't stand a chance to win in Iowa, now all of a sudden "upset" in New Hampshire. I would rather say that Barack is such a compelling story that even the Republican and Democratic media couldn't help but fall in love with him, leading them to over hype the candidate. The love affair, and compressed news cycles, temporarily blinded them from the truth that the Clinton Machine is alive and well, proving it will take more than a bucket of water to kill this wicked witch. Once the dust settled, and the questions of what went wrong had been asked, Barack continued on his improbable journey to 1500 Pennsylvania Ave. The money and endorsements continue to pour into his campaign. The endorsement from two influential Nevada Unions and two former Presidential contenders in the two days after New Hampshire is not a faltering campaign but rather one that is picking up steam heading into states with a little bit more diversity than the first two contests. Obama is Fired Up and Ready To Go!
