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.

A picture paints a thousand words. Great photo.
Michelle Obama makes Oprah look like Barbara Bush.
Excellent. Although every time I read him I have to repeatedly go to Dictionary.com.
LOL!
Exactly what I pictured when I read that line.
Steyn-a-roonie.
Nobody in his right mind would ever count the Clinton's "out".
Very true. I would not count Shrillary dead until I saw her bleached bones lying in the sun - and even then, I'd check dental records.
The image of Hill waddling the distance is more than anyone could stomach - especially to any applause!!
huh???????

“As for the U.S. 2008 presidential race, Mr. Soros, who gave $18 million to Democratic advocacy groups seeking to defeat President Bush in 2004, said he supported Barack Obama.”

“However, Soros’ backing Obama will put pressure on Clinton to move left. That takes her off her gameplan and may cast her march toward the nomination as more dogfight than coronation parade.”
Hillary pissed Soros off with her not left enough stand on Iraq and Iran. This goes back to before the 2006 elections with Soros flexing his muscles.
I am convinced that the reason Obama is winning (has won?) is the backing of Soros and Move On.
Funny, it doesn’t mention “la strega”.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
ty
lol!
Huh?
Specifics please, and be prepared to defend:
-McCain-Feingold (excused, you already identified him as a "useful idiot" - your words)
-McCain-Lieberman
-McCain-Kennedy
-McCain-Edwards
LOL. Nobody says it better than Steyn.
He hits the nail on the head with accuracy, humor, and a bit of compassion for Hillary at the end.
I’m thankful if Obama has saved us from the Clintons. Now, if we can just be saved from him!
