This one could leave a mark.
As MSMers go, A.B. Stoddard has been one of my favorites during this campaign season for her grown-up, no-nonsense style. The Associate Editor of The Hill is not someone given to overblown flights of rhetoric. That's why I was so struck by the brutal assessment of Hillary's predicament Stoddard just offered on MSNBC. The topic was Clinton's 11th-hour openness, reflected in her granting an interview to Access Hollywood to discuss her personal side, and epitomized during a campaign stop today when she got a bit misty while discussing the campaign and her hopes for America.
Norah O'Donnell invited Stoddard and WaPo's Chris Cillizza to "psychoanalyze" Clinton's latest move. At first it seemed Stoddard could be on her way to concluding that Hillary might have discovered a winning strategy. But suddenly, down came the axe . . .

My ‘moment’ on this topic was Andrea Mitchell informing everybody that the room ‘had been empty five minutes ago’ in the wake of Clinton losing to both Obama and Edwards.
When Hillary Clinton loses a syncophant like Mitchell, you know its over.

Imploding. Or as someone said on another thread, melting.

Rush played a clip today of Mrs. Clinton's best friend saying that Clinton Inc. filled the NH town hall meetings with NYers.

"Imploding. Or as someone said on another thread, melting."She was not imploding, melting, or otherwise losing it. It was an outstanding performance, worthy of an "Ellen".

I heard that via Rush today as well.
I heard Andrea Mitchell’s observations live, by chance over the weekend.

Access Hollywood? Bwhahahaha. Everyone KNOWS when you have personal issues to discuss with the world, you go on Oprah. But wait....
To: Brilliant
It’s one thing to leave the laundry in the hall to long and another thing entirely to leave the Rose Law Firm records in the family library for two years. If she likes cleaning out her closet so much how come she couldn’t spend a little time finding these subpoenaed records?
