The Twisting Noose

But in spite of the rigged super-delegate system by which Hillary would ascend to a nomination while losing the vast majority of the primary and caucus contests to Sen. Bernie Sanders, it looks like her expiration date is fast approaching

When I think about the slow and inexorable—but, of course, inevitable—political demise of Hillary Clinton, I am reminded of T.S. Eliot’s poem, “The Hollow Men,” which ends with this haunting refrain:

This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends This is the way the world ends Not with a bang but a whimper.

Hillary’s whimper, it seems clear, will come with an impotently furious last gasp, as the noose that Barack Obama has placed around her neck tightens and tightens and tightens until all we hear is her spasmodic cough, a few hoarse protestations, and a final pitiful bleat—and not the ear-splitting assault of “that voice,” which I described in a previous article.

Nice way with words!

It’s beginning to seem like everybody and nation in the world knows Hillary is not going to make it but Hillary and her loyal followers

They’ve have more than an inkling. The recent panicked behavior is the result.

It’s looking more and more like Hillary will be a replay of Jeb.
