That's what the campaign calls the "flake rate." And if Clinton is trounced in Iowa, expect the campaign to write off a wobbly start to the vagaries of Iowa as they charge on to New Hampshire--and to firmer, frozen ground. "No one knows how this thing is going to turn out," says Harold Ickes, one of Clinton's closest advisers, who has been pressed into duty driving elderly voters Thursday night. "It would be nice to win, but she doesn't have to win to go on." And in case anyone doubts whether Clinton can learn from adversity, she's only too happy to remind her audiences of her own trials during the battle over her health-care plan in 1994. "You often learn more about a person when they don't succeed than when they do," she says. "The Republicans have been after me for me for 16 years. Much to their dismay, I'm still here." One bad night in Iowa isn't likely to change that.

    ANOTHER PHOTO OF OBAMA IN MUSLIM GARB WITH MUSLIMS
    Remember he went to Kenya to campaign for Odinga for the presidency.. Odinga lost and went on a murderous rampage. Odinga had a pact with the Muslims to force Islam on the country. Google 'Obama is my cousin".




    LOOK AT THIS SYMBOL OF THE 'OBAMA YOUTH' GROUP! It is clearly patterned on the Muslim half moon and stars symbol.

    Do yourself a favor. Go to the following sites and educate yourselves:

    http://www.freedomsenemies.com/_more/obama.htm

    http://www.examiner.com/a-534540~Can_a_past_of_Islam_change_the_path_to_president_for_Obama_.html


    http://www.examiner.com/a-536474~_Trapped_between_two_worlds_.html



    . But every time the truth oozes out, as it did again today, Obama???s staff goes crazy and flies into full Clinton-style ???war room??? damage control.


    Barack Hussein Obama is the closest Democrats can come to electing a foreign Muslim President of the United States without actually violating the constitutional requirement that American Presidents be native-born.
