Hillary Clinton defied the pundits, mainstream media, and pollsters last night and won the New Hampshire primary. Just one day prior, the media was talking about disarray on her team, money troubles, and various other negatives that were almost definitely going to lead to an inevitable Obama nomination.
Word to the wise - never, EVER, count out the Clintons. EVER.
I was switching back and forth last night between MSNBC, CNN, and the Internet, and I have some observations:
- Chris Matthews from MSNBC is the MOST ANNOYING HUMAN BEING in the fucking galaxy. I like MSNBC election coverage because of Keith Olbermann, but the presence of Chris Matthews is enough to make me hit the "mute" button.
- Another "mute" button moment - John Edwards and his standard "Debbie Downer" concession speech. OMG - is it REALLY that bad out there? Edwards DID, however, have the hot plumber guy from Desperate Housewives standing behind him during his speech.
- What's the deal with Ron Paul? Why do all his supporters look like they just came from a Grateful Dead revival show? Who is giving him all that money?
- John McCain is about 187 years old.
I LOVE election season - this is really going to get interesting...
