Travis Childers' win more important than Clinton's

Clinton put her best argument forward in her speech tonight following her win in W. Virginia. No doubt.

At the same time, unfortunately for her, she's a month or so late and a few million dollars short.

And her argument was severely undercut by Childers' win in a Republican stronghold where the democrat was hammered with ads tying him to Obama.

You know the message. Scroll down. She just did it with the best tone and rationale yet...

It's also her at her "populist" best. You know, it's familiar too. Bill went populist in rhetoric at the end to win his first primary, then darted to the right.

I really ought to get cable.

I'll start putting up video.

A side note:

Today Obama gets endorsements from NARAL and Edwards.

Big day. Changes W. Virginia story. Cuts into Clinton's so-called, self-proclaimed "winning coalition."

Every down ticket progressive initiative or proposition, piece of legislation, etc. will benefit from the new voters that are going to be at the polls in November. Those voters should be target voters for all November ballots.
