Contest for the Democrat nomination hotting up - HibeesBounce.com

This seems to be getting quite interesting now. Didn't really give Obama much of a chance at the outset but he seems to be looking like the candidate who's got the momentum behind him. He's even got former Clintonites like Teddy Kennedy on board and Billy Boy himself seems to be doing his utmost to play the race card and screw it up for his wife. Quite looking forward to the Super Tuesday shenanigans.

To be honest I don't know if having Senator 'Safe Driver' Kennedy helps or hurts Senator Obama. It can't hurt in light of the recent endorsment of former Senator Kerry to have more and more of the democratic establishment get on board. However it does impact his ability to promote change in Washington when the very establishment he is wanting to change.

I do know that the tone of the campaign has become very nasty and almost all of it is coming from former President Clinton.
