if Hillary won in Mass, is that a slap in the face to the Kennedy's
THIS IS A BIG ONE!  I DON'T CARE HOW THE OBAMA CAMP TRIES TO SPIN IT. AFTER THE ALL THE KENNEDY SUPPORT AND THE POLLS COMING TO FAVOR OBAMA, THEY WERE SMACKED BACK. PEOPLE IN MASS WANT A HANDS-ON, HARD WORKER, NOT A TALKER.  A PRACTICAL LOT, THEY ARE, AND THEY KNOW ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS.
Hillary is doing well in Massachusetts!   Glad to see that voters are making up their own minds and not being swayed by the ghosts of politicians past.  I am from Illinois and I cannot honestly say that Obama has done anything constructive during his tenure as a senator from our state.  He is a great talker, but talk does not equate change at least not in Illinois!!  Go Hillary, I am tired of  grandeous talk that has been all smoke and mirrors in Illinois..
I want to see how Chris Matthews, Joe, and Tucker wil spin this...
Teddy and Kerry are just over inflated egos. Neither Teddy nor Kerry won the Presidential election. They tried but failed.
I am not against Obama. But I hate the spin by Chris Joe and Tucker.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Ted Kennedy!
it must be really painful for all the news organizations to post the results because i am getting the news of states being called faster on tv, than on the net.its pretty funny they put idaho up with only 9% of the vote in, but then Idaho is only 10% democracts.  go hilary
Today, nearly half the nation will have the chance to join you in saying that we are tired of business-as-usual in Washington, we are hungry for change, and we are ready to believe again.

This is from an email that Obama's camp has sent out this evening.

I guess someone had better tell Uncle Teddy Kennedy that he had better get packing.  Because if Obama gets to Washington, in order for him to keep just a couple of the many promises he keeps making to his supporters, Uncle Teddy will have to go.  Because with 45 years in the US Senate and Washington D.C., Uncle Teddy doesn't really stand for change but rather stands for business-as-usual in Washington.
