I'd be happy to be wrong. For a variety of reasons, I'd prefer Hillary Clinton to be the Democratic presidential nominee.But it's not going to happen. She'll be clobbered in Wisconsin tomorrow. She might run ahead, even win, the popular vote in Texas, but the delegate count will be close, probably pro-Obama. The media talk, the popular mood, the times -- they all work for Obama.
Finally, there's been the Clinton campaign. Fighting, seriously, today about Obama's borrowing of rhetoric from a friend is a sign of desperation. Obama is derivative. So is everyone. And Bill Clinton -- who knew? -- has proved to be a negative.
The media megaphone can't be underestimated.
Some of it is crazy. Some of it unfair. So is life.
Obama will win the nomination. Polls today say he'll beat McCain everywhere -- in every key state and nationally. Those same polls said the same thing about Hillary Clinton's sure dominance a few months ago.
For the record.
Sieg Heil Sick Hill!

Indeed, more than half the country are certifiable idiots. The Socialists have corrupted our court system, which has allowed them to take over our schools.Consequently, they’ve dumbed people down and brainwashed them with their idiot liberalism to the point that they’ll believe ANYTHING the media (which is ALSO owned and manned by the RATS, of course) tells them.
Now, in addition, they’ve managed to appoint our Presidential candidate for us, so the only choice given us is between two liberals, and a liberal.
LOL!
WI however is filled with other kinds of unions - steelworkers, etc. - the kind that like the Clintons.

I am guessing the FBI file info is pretty stale by now. Hasnt it been 14 years? Some of it might still be powerful, but also do consider how many democrats dont seem to be especially bothered or harmed politically by embarrassing or incriminating information.
If I have it right, the "900 FBI files" were of Republicans - who nobody thought were being considered for Clinton Administration jobs, and whose FBI files were therefore not legally accessible to the Clinton White House.But there were also about 2000 FBI files of Democrats requested in alphabetical order, and therefore irrespective of any consideration for employment. And therefore also accessed illegally. If any would be of potential use for Democratic primary opposition research, those would be the ones. But of course you are correct that FBI Filegate started in 1993 - any files which were accessed illegally would have to have preexisted the Clinton Administration altogether (assuming that they weren't actually siccing the FBI to go investigate Democrats they had no intention of employing). And when you think of how long it had been since there had been a Democratic Administration before that, to have legitimately generated such files on candidates for employment in a Democratic Administration, you're talking 1980 at the latest. Basically, we're talking 30 year-old files on 60 year-old Democrats.
You are correct.
Notice how party leaders/consultants are starting to distance themselves from her. It is subtle but it is happening. The donors are not far behind.
She may be done on March 4th if the current conditions hold.
One can only hope.
LOL! The only legacy he'll be remembered for is is - the definition of ...
You make a good point. If she was doing fantastic, why would he be so unhinged?
