Furthermore, WV has also voted for Democratic candidates who don't get the nomination (Humphrey, Byrd). Even if she was talking about the general election, she was wrong: Ford carried WV in '76 and lost, Carter carried WV in '80 and lost, and so did Dukakis in '88. It's clear she's just trying to make WV sound more like a bellweather than it truly is. But the truth obviously doesn't matter anymore. Not after Bush. Wait, she's sounding more presidential every minute!

Has anyone bothered to take a look at the clothes Hillary wears? Some are mix matched with tacky jewlery, and she wears alot of the same outfits over and over again. Now, on the other hand...look at Ms. Obama and Ms. McCain how professionally, well dressed they ALWAYS are. If Hillary, by accident, becomes the president, I sure hope they have a fashion designer on hand to give her some much needed advise if she is to represent our country looking the way a leader should look. Look at women leaders in other countries... their attire is much more appropriate and professional that Hillary's. FASHION STATEMENT?????
