A HILLARY 'LANDSLIDE'???
Such conditions, irrespective of vote tally, can never a 'landslide' make. Nonetheless, missus clinton dumped 30-million-dollars' worth of false advertising 2 into the race: Standard-issue clinton sleight-of-hand intended to transmute:
The purpose of the 30-million-dollar demagogic infusion was to create the illusion of a landslide in New York in '06, which would, (so the wishful thinking goes), create the illusion of national electability in '08, an absolute prerequisite to nomination for someone with a Q Score as wanting as missus clinton's. 6 FUZZY MATH AT THE NEW YORK TIMES The official New York State Board of Elections tally will not be available until mid-December, a sufficient time lag for Pinch and Company 7 to exaggerate the significance of the hillary vote and for the mischaracterization to become firmly fixed in our collective 'history.' Truth and America matter not at all to The New York Times. Agenda is everything. 8 The Times' clinton endorsements redux. 9
If missus clinton won two-thirds of the total vote and two-thirds of the male vote, she could not have won three-quarters of female vote unless the total female vote was at or about zero. Similarly, if she won two-thirds of the total vote and three-quarters of female vote, she could not have won two-thirds of the male vote. SPITZER'S ZIPPER For her entire adult (such as it is) life, zipper-hoisting has been missus clinton's principal means of upward mobility. 10 This election was no different. Zipper-hoisting has, in the past, proven to be a sticky wicket for missus clinton, owing not to antithetical feminist ideology, as one would expect -- feminists willingly sacrificed feminism on the altar of clintonism -- but to zipper choice, her rather injudicious attachment early on to a certain zipper habitually on the downslide. This time she picked zippers a bit better, glomming onto Eliot's. Contrary to 'conventional wisdom,' the coattails (if you'll pardon the mixed metaphor) were Eliot's, not hers. The three percent who voted for Spitzer who could not overcome their revulsion to pull the lever for hillary tell it all. |

'Knownothing-Victim' and 'Failure' are missus clinton's middle names.

... And the corollary: Zipper-hoisting has been missus clinton's only means of upward mobility

Thanks
That's a good one but I was thinking of an illustration showing more detail of Kerry's forlorn look. That photo is a CLASSIC of somebody who has been ruthlessly tossed out of the power elite.
I completely understood what Limbaugh meant when he said "I feel liberated."
The GOP and the White House EXPECTED the grass roots volunteers to do their dirty work, to carry their water.
Not to give them a helping hand or lend support to the cause - instead, to do THEIR job for THEM.
The PR department at the WH has been completely neglected and AWOL from the outset of the 43 administration.
Incompetent. Futile. Pathetic. There is no other way to characterize the White House marketing team.
It now seems a Bush trait. When 41 ran his second campaign in 1992, like many others, I wondered "Does he even WANT to win?".
In 2004, with Bush 43, without the Swift Boat Vets, and the Freepers brilliant refutation of the CBS documents, there was no plan, no message, no strategy at all coming from the WH to win. The victory was ours.
Reagan has proven that grace, style, values, and a fighting attitude are not mutually exclusive.
If the game of politics is too distasteful, too vulgar, for a future GOP candidate, if that candidate is unwilling to personally confront and disarm critics with skill, wit and aplomb, if that candidate is incapable of stringing two coherent sentences together, that candidate needs to retire to his ranch or oceanview estate and stay the hell away - our future and our platform are far too important to entrust with candidates campaigning as naive schoolgirls.
Indeed, but what grabbed me most was the flip side: The photo's incongruous, overreaching, Men-in-Black. here-come-the-clowns quality.
Why don't you give the Kerry perspective a try? ;)
Excellent. But don't discount the mutual protection racket in DC... and Filegate.
