In Iowa, if I recall correctly, there was alot of rhetoric about Maytag plant shutdowns. But, according to the Illinois IAMAW alot of that talk was just rhetoric
Despite the perceived (by some) outrage over the Walmart tapes the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers of Illinois endorsed Hillary Clinton yesterday, citing inaction from Barack Obama on the Galesburg Maytag plant closing as one reason.

Fascinating balanced article from the New Yorker that looks at the dichotomous choice that Democrats must make between Clinton and Obama.

As we all know the Florida was stripped of delegates by the DNC and all Democratic candidates pledged not to campaign there. But apparently Obama's campaign has a spot airing on cable in Florida according to Ben Smith.

A Florida reader writes that Obama's new spot is airing on cable down there, giving Florida Democrats a small window into a primary process that they can otherwise only learn about from, you know, the media.

Obama spokesman Bill Burton says the campaign asked the cable channels whether they could prevent the ad from airing in Florida, but were told that was impossible.

Predictably, Obama supporters and Hillary Haters are spinning last nights results as a result of manipulation on the part of Clinton or racism on the part of New Hampshire voters.

But the exit poll numbers totally prove this spin to be false. Instead they indicate that Clinton had a number of supporters who were behind her rationally but could not connect to her emotionally. She opened up in the last few days and gave those voters that were for her a reason to come to the polls.
