Billary Clinton "is back in the race" for the Democrat Party nomination for the candidacy for the next Presidential Election, Sky News reports.
It has just been announced by Sky Television News that she has won the Primary vote contest in the important populous state of Ohio.
Earlier this morning Billary Clinton had a surprise win over her opponent for the Democrat Party nomination for candidate in the coming Presidential election, Barack Obama, in the Rhode Island Primary vote. Barack Obama beat her yesterday in Vermont state.
The result of the Democrat Party Primary vote yesterday in the large state of Texas has not been announced yet but it is crucial for Billary Clinton and her campaign that she win it and the early indications are that she will.
BBC News 24 Television said at 4.56 am this morning that Billary Clinton was on 52% of the vote in the Texas Democrat Party Primary vote with Barack Obama on 48% after 52% of the voting districts (precincts) had been counted.
Billary Clinton's win in Ohio (at the time of writing this she is on 56% of the vote in Ohio after 70% of districts had completed vote-counting) was described by Kathy Kay, the correspondent for BBC News in San Antonio, Texas, as "a blow" to Barack Obama.

What a surprise, I am shocked.
I bet they can't wait to call her "the comeback kid II".
I can't believe some of you lot believe a McLame has a chance. Just look at the voting levels in all of these "contests". America is getting puppet B this time (Democrat) and the chief puppet is the Clinton dynasty.

Stunning comeback indeed. Just enough to send her on the way to beating McCain. What a shock. What a surprise. Who could ever have predicted that.

At this time, Barack Obama still has more delegates to the Democrat Party National Convention than Billary Clinton does.

As I have said from the start, the contest to be America's next President is wide open.
It has even been suggested that Gore could step in to become a "compromise candidate" if Billary Clinton and Barack Obama end up in a stalemate position (i.e if Billary Clinton and Barack Obama get an almost equal share of support at the Democrat National Convention and it is decided that unity in the Democrat Party would be achieved by backing Gore instead).

It isn't wide open. It is a done deal.
Puppet B is now being gently ramped up into the chair.

I bet the campaigns of both Billary Clinton and Barack Obama don't think it is a done deal as you claim above, Matthew.
Both must be under enormous pressure at this time as they appear to be heading towards a 'stalemate situation' after spending tens of millions of US dollars on their campaigns.
As I wrote earlier, there has already been talk of Al Gore possibly stepping in to be a compromise Democrat candidate for the American Presidency.
