Is this Iowa? No, it's South Carolina. You can excuse the confusion because when one of us touched down here late last night, what were we greeted by? SNOW! And it's the real kind too.

Compare that to Hillary who has 7 years of US senate experience and 25 years riding Bill Clinton's coattails.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Even still, &amp;quot;experience&amp;quot; hasn't shown itself to be quite what is needed. What about Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Douglas Feith, Paul Wolfowitz, Paul Bremer, et al? Decades of experience in the political, public, and private sectors, and not a damn one competent enough to do the job.</description></item><item><title>The battle for South Carolina</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/17/583985.aspx#584360</link><pubDate>Thu, 17 Jan 2008 16:53:46 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:584360</guid><dc:creator>another voter against negative campaigns</dc:creator><description>Mitt Romney holds no loyalty to any state, nor to the workers of the United States. Romney is making his own Millions through the Forced Buy-Outs of his Buy-Out Firm. Analysts who keep up with Buy-Out Firms' compensation, estimate Romney to be over $500Million (NYTimes 03/11/07). &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A pretty penny for buying negative campaigning against opponents of any party. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Media just recently boasted Romney's campaign just paid them Another $8Million and that he, himself, is able and ready to pay them many more of his $Millions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Romney has 'retooled' his message too many times since first campaigning against Ted Kennedy as more Liberal than Kennedy, then as Liberal candidate for governor of Massachusetts, and now, as he panders for Conservative votes. Romney's has already proven his political message is whatever Romney wants to say on any given day, to any given group or state. &lt;br&gt;Voters Beware.</description></item><item><title>The battle for South Carolina</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/01/17/583985.aspx#584459</link><pubDate>Thu, 17 Jan 2008 17:23:40 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:584459</guid><dc:creator>Fran Chesler</dc:creator><description> I also hear South Carolina is being flooded with the Obama smear e-mails.
