Again, Hillary chose to speak without conceding the night to Obama. Obama's team said "Screw that!" and Obama began speaking in the middle of Clinton's speech, betting correctly that the cable networks would go to his speech live. Obama then took advantage of nearly an hour of prime coverage.
For the first time, Ms Clinton's body language portrayed a loser IMO.
The hilarous thing was then Tim Russert of NBC tried to blame Obama for the rudeness of him starting his speech on time in the middle of Hillary's late-starting event.
Don't the networks have video tape? There was no reason for them all to cut away from Hillary other than their own competition to scoop each other. Any one of them could have recorded Obama's speech and replayed it after Hillary completed hers.
