Reuters: Hillary “Virtually Tied” For Second

From the wire services:

Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., talks with supporters following her caucus night rally, Thursday, Jan. 3, 2008, in Des Moines, Iowa.

A supporter holds a sign before Democratic presidential hopeful, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y., speaks at her caucus night rally, Thursday, Jan. 3, 2008, in Des Moines, Iowa.

[Reuters caption:] Democratic presidential candidate U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) speaks to supporters, after she placed virtually tied for second in the Iowa caucuses, at the Clinton headquarters in Des Moines, Iowa January 3, 2008.

That’s it. Hillary really came in second.

Not to be outdone, the Associated Press even claims she will somehow receive more delegates than Mr. Edwards:

What would we do without our media to explain things to us?

Speaking of shameless mendacity:

Democratic presidential candidate Senator Hillary Clinton (L) addresses supporters, as retired General Wesley Clark (2nd L), former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright (C), husband and former president Bill Clinton and daughter Chelsea Clinton (R) stand behind her, after her defeat in the Iowa caucus in Des Moines, Iowa January 3, 2008.

That’s Hillary promising “real change” while she has Bill Clinton, Madeleine Albright, Wesley Clark and other assorted fossils from the previous administration posed behind her.
