On the day that Margaret Thatcher was toppled by her own party, I ran into an old friend, a hard-core leftist playwright, Marxist to the core, who wasn't as happy as he should have been. He jabbed me in the chest. "You bastards on the right!" he fumed. "You wouldn't even let us be the ones to drive the stake through her heart."
I'm sure in America's Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy there are similar mixed feelings. The Clintons have met their Waterloo but it's not some doughty conservative warrior who gets to play Duke of Wellington, only some freshman pap peddler of liberal boilerplate whom no one had heard of the day before yesterday.
Such are the vicissitudes of politics. I see from the gay newspaper the Washington Blade that, as the headline writer put it, "Clinton Leads Among Gay Super Delegates." Only in the Democratic Party. I don't know how many supergays it takes to outvote the nonsuper primary and caucus voters from Maine to Nevada to Hawaii. They may yet pull Sen. Clinton's chestnuts out of the fire, but they're looking pretty charred and indigestible right now. Unlike the Fall of Thatcher, it's nothing so glamorous as an act of matricide, but just the nightly hell of a tired vaudeville act that can no longer find the spark.

“I don’t know how many supergays it takes to outvote the nonsuper primary and caucus voters...”
Classic.
John Mclaim makes Ron Paul look like Ronald Reagan...
By making Bill into a rock star, they prepared the way for a Barack star. The Clintons got "Starred" after all.
Hillary’s Demise:
Hillary came into this campaign thinking she had it locked up and knew the big advantage she had would protect her from the men being aggressive toward her. (Remember Rick Lazio?)It would have worked had it not been for the race factor,she failed to equate Obama and his race and him being able to give it back to her. Her tears do not work and she did not have the race card to play like the Democrats have so often done. The race card they played over the years was used to trump her. America is surely in dire straights when we have to make a choice from the field such as we have today.

Maybe you’ve been mesmerized by the Obamessiah?
Soros (et al.) has placed bets on Obomba and Hillary! - not sure of the allocation, but suspect Obambi was a diversion to make his main bet, Hillary!, look better. It seems to me that now they want to “go for broke”, and thus have changed many Hillary! chips for Obama chips.
Let's hope Hillary, in a desperate grab for Democrat decadence votes, doesn't drop her pantsuit.

Wrong post by PORD, should have been under the article on Herbert Hoover.
Yes! Absolutely!
Hillary is what the Clintons look like with their pants up. Their much-vaunted political savvy turns out to be a big nothing: The supposed masters of "the politics of personal destruction" can't turn up anything better on Obama than some ancient essay from his Jakarta grade school, plus a few limp charges of plagiarism. And instead of getting the surrogates to crowbar the enemy every time Hillary opens up on him she looks mean and petty, and he gets to do his high-minded Obamessiah routine...
And, worst of all for Bill and Hill, the Dems found a new star – their first in 16 years. Look at it from Hillary's point of view: She'd expected to run against the likes of Joe Biden, Bill Richardson, Chris Dodd – the usual mediocrities and misfits. Then Barack Obama came along, and did what the Clintons did in 1992 – saw his opportunity and seized it. All of a sudden, she's the Bill Richardson – worthy but dull, earthbound and joyless, lead weights round her ankles.
He NAILS it! As always ...
