Super (Spin) Tuesday
Now that Super Tuesday has come and gone, PRNewser takes a closer look at how the various campaign spokespeople are spinning the results: Hillary Clinton chief strategist (and Burson Marsteller CEO) Mark Penn in the Washington Post: "We feel quite good about how those returns have come in," Mark Penn, the chief strategist for Clinton, said in a conference call with reporters shortly after 10 p.m. "The campaign believes it's critically important that we continue the debates between Senator Obama and Senator Clinton," Penn said. "We think it's critically important that people get to see the candidates face to face." Romney chief spokesman Kevin Madden in Time: "We can make an electability argument that Mike Huckabee can't," said Kevin Madden. "He is limited in his regional appeal." Romney chief spokesman Kevin Madden on John McCain: "[He] woefully underperformed given the expectations he set for himself." Madden added: "There's a big fat question mark next to John McCain." McCain spokesman Brian Rogers on Romney: "At the end of the day, West Virginia Republicans sent a message: they don't trust Mitt Romney," said McCain spokesman Brian Rogers. "They proved again that you can't buy an election and you can't trust a politician whose positions on core issues seem to change with the political winds." Huckabee campaign manager Chip Saltsman on Romney: "Once again, conservatives have rejected Romney's conviction-less campaign," said Huckabee's campaign manager, Chip Saltsman. "No amount of Mitt's money is going to overcome what a growing number of Americans - and the Wall Street Journal - are seeing first hand: Mitt has no convictions at all." Obama spokesman Bill Burton on the numbers: "The win in Georgia tonight is Barack's strongest showing among female voters of any contest so far. In raw percentages, his highest showing so far has been 54%, in South Carolina. Adjusted for a two-way race, he would have gotten 64%. Tonight in Georgia, Barack got 64% of the vote among women, which made up 63% of the electorate." It's still a race, folks!
