She’s Toast

She’s no comeback kid. Those wires are glowin’, and Hillary is about to pop up ready to be slathered with butter and marmalade.

This is better than watching the Dallas Cowboys lose againandagainandagainandagain by several orders of magnitude (America’s Team my ass).

Right after Iowa, Obama was polling only one point ahead of Hillary in New Hampshire, but now it looks like a real Obamalanche - the quite reliable Rasmussen, and CNN now put Obama a healthy twelve and ten points ahead respectively in the Granite State.

Kevin Drum is a bit miffed:

In related news, apparently the flinty-eyed independents of New Hampshire aren’t quite as flinty-eyed as they’d like you to believe. After a solid year of town halls, coffee klatsches, and early morning doorbell ringing — because, you know, New Hampshirites take their electoral responsibilities so much more seriously than the rest of us — all it took was a few thousand Iowans to flip them from one side to the other in less than 24 hours. Feh.

Kidding? People love a winner! (and they like to back the right horse. . . ideology be damned. New Hampshirites are no less susceptible to this than anyone else).

P.S. I was completely and utterly wrong - we are going to let a few thousand Iowan caucasians[sic] determine this election. At least on the Democratic side, anyway.

Too bad.  In a field of scary, liberal democrats, Clinton is probably the most palatable and least destructive of the lot. Like it or not, if a democrat is going to occupy the White House, let us hope that its Hillary.

Is that what Bill said to Chelsea?

“I’m going to try to get marmalade...”



For any voter trying to choose between the two candidates for commander in chief, there is no better test than this: When American strategy in a critical theater was up for grabs, John McCain proposed a highly unpopular and risky path, which he accurately predicted could lead to success. Barack Obama proposed a popular and politically safe route that would have led to an unnecessary and debilitating American defeat at the hands of al Qaeda.

The more people see of Hillary, the less they like her.

Electing her to the Senate was an act of sympathy and empowerment for what her constituents believed was woman who had been suffering at the hands of a powerful man. 

If she would just be quiet, ignore everyone, act aloof, and get rid of the irritating cackle, she could probably win.

From who though?  Now that Hillary’s got the wicked witch of the west cackle going on, you’d think Bill’s usual gaggle of sluts would be frightened away in fear that she might send the flying monkeys after them if she found out.

He’s certainly not going to get any from Hillary.  Not until he grows a vag anyway.
