They might go back to speculating about Obama’s drug use. Not that good Democrats care about such things, of course, just that they are afraid of what Republicans will say about Obama.

Ron Fournier of AP has been a boot-licking Clintonoid for at least 10 years.

Obama appears set to be the nominee. Hillary doesn't have a prayer. This is good news. I don't want a rerun of the Clinton Decade!

“But only one of us is ready on Day One to be commander in chief, ready to manage our economy...”

The thought of this woman being responsible for our military and getting her hands on the levers of the economy (which should be “Hands Off” anyway) is absolutely frightening.

The thought of her opponent being responsible for our military and getting his hands on the levers of the economy (which should be “Hands Off” anyway) is absolutely frightening.

The thought of John McCain...well, that’s frightening, too, but in a different way.

"Both Senator Obama and I would make history," the former first lady told supporters Tuesday night...

That she is correct is the source of my worst nightmares.

"But only one of us is ready on Day One to be commander in chief, ready to manage our economy and ready to defeat the Republicans."

Now I know why she needs the military brought home within her first sixty days rather than defending our country from Al Queda and worldwide terrorism...

I’m beginning to wonder if the Obama team might be on the downhill road to self destruct. First, the stolen words story comes out, then the good wife made that stupid comment, then instead of a short humble thank you after winning WI, he played Castro and Putin and droned on and on. Ego and arrogance might kill them before Hillary. They’re all getting too big for their britches.

Obama’s irrational supporters, and his empty rhetoric, will be his downfall come November. Glad to see him knocking out Hillary now, because he will be easier to deal with later. The extreme left intelligencia-wannabees love him right now, but there’s not enough of them to carry the day in a general election. Many traditional Democrats who swing Republican once in a while will not swallow the Obama Kool Aid.

“In a sign of desperation, the Clinton camp floated the idea of poaching delegates that Obama earned via elections. While allowable under Democratic National Committee rules, the tactic would likely divide Democrats along racial lines and set the party back decades.”

Go for it, Hillary!

I know this is a common view on FR, but I can't tell you how wrong I think it is. Obama and the frenzy surrounding him will be hard to beat. Hillary would have been an easy takedown. This is not good news.
