It may be just a wee bit early to say that Hillary Clinton has blown her chance at the Democratic presidential nomination, but it’s not too late to address the exploding amazement of the political pundit class over the ineptness of her campaign. Rarely has a storyline been, in such equal parts, so dominant and fun to read.
How did the Clinton people manage to run such an embarrassingly bad campaign? Inquiring minds want to know.
But it’s really not that hard to figure out. In truth, they had nothing to work with – a problem that was only exacerbated by the fact that they were so thoroughly convinced of the opposite

The concentration on large states was wrong. If the large state splits its delegates, where is the net gain?
Only fitting that a place like Puerto Rico or Vermont should be in a position to determine her fate.
I agree with you. I am not at all sure the country can survive a Clinton, an Obama, OR a McCain presidency-but of the three, I think an Obama regime would be worst. Not only was HRC the more beatable candidate, I believe she would have been (if only marginally) less dangerous for the country as president than BHO.

Exactly
They will now shove Obama down our throats
Back in 1992, it was nauseating for the rest of the legal community to read in the MSM that one of Hildy’s “steriling credentials” was that she had been selected one of the best 100 lawyers in America or whatever.
Basically, she was listed in one of those books where you either nominate yourself and pay $50 for the listing or whatever.
It was gross.
So she was a lawyer! What did she ever do at the Rose Law Firm of any merit! And didn’t she get THAT job because she was the Guvnor’s wife?
Anyway, from the beginning, she has been a fraud and a fraudster. Her comeuppance is well-deserved.
Many, many books will be written on the spectacular and fraudulent rise and fall of the ‘Toons, for now, because of Hildabeast, the Sinkmeister’s ridiculousness also has been exposed. So, in that sense at least, the ‘Toons will finally be good for something-—the economy and academics and punditry.
How can such a big-ended woman be such a small-minded witch?
Great column. I’ve always laughed at the people who said she was smart.
In truth, they had nothing to work with – a problem that was only exacerbated by the fact that they were so thoroughly convinced of the opposite.
I think we all got the message when Russert asked her to comment on the immigration policies of Gov. Spitzer several months ago. That was the beginning of the end for Her Heinous. She's no deep thinker.
Empty pantsuit ALERT!
Run Hillaryous Run!
For me, the fascinating part is how the mainstream Rats are acting like the lightbulb over their head is going off-—saying, WOW, NOW I get what the Republicans were complaining about all those years!
Somehow, I get the impression that none of us are, but until she says she's finished in this race, it's not over by any stretch of the imagination.
Rush hopes Hillary stays alive to split the Dem Party, and I will hope for that...BUT if Hillary becomes officallly dead in the campaign, I will be on the drinking thread (which I’ll start if someone else doesn’t) celebrating the end of the Clinton Era.
Absolutely.
The Clear and Present Danger of Hillary is almost destroyed. When it is, the light of exposure will most definitely need to be retrained on Obama.
In a discussion the other night, my answer to whether the country would elect the first black to the Presidency:
"If the country elects Obama as its first black President, I fear that it will also have elected it's last President."
BTTT
We survived Jimmy Carter, whose raging hatred for the country continues to this day. And Good Things happened after he was timed out. We remember wood fires, sweaters, and gas rationing lines, the "Misery Index", the humiliation in the Desert, and double-digit inflation.
We survived Pearl Harbor and 9-11, so we can survive another emotional moron.
It seems we have to have one every generation-Like taking Worm Medicine.
Its not over till the Hillary sings! Now someone tell her she lost. LOL
