It must be devastating for Hillary Rhodam Clinton to see her chances of becoming the Democratic nominee fade into oblivion. It has to be beyond infuriating to have the media that once so blindly worshipped and adored her mischievous better half turn on her and declare with such confidence to a country that, as far as she is concerned has not yet had the final word, that the die is cast, and hers is now an unstoppable plunge into defeat.
This is supposed to be the time at which the planets should have been perfectly aligned to signal her messianic arrival. This is the hour for which she was born; this is supposed to be her moment; and who would dare presume to take that away from her?
The answer to that is a no less ambitious contender named Barack Obama. And to have her rival even begin to consider planning a victory rally and mere news pundits like Tim Russert or George Stephanopoulos in essence declare that she should no longer stay in the game must conjure up feelings and thoughts in her mind inappropriate to put into words.
So it is only a matter of time before she or her husband drops some kind of bomb. It's almost inevitable. This may just be the most opportune time to expose that scandalous news from Obama's past Hillary once claimed she was in possession of. The suspense is part of what is making this whole race for the nomination in the Democratic Party so much fun to watch.
One wonders how many undecided voters will simply become angry and disgusted enough from witnessing this no holds barred brawl for raw power between two presumably well-bred human beings, and simply refuse to vote, or perhaps even better -- God forbid? -- vote Republican. That remains to be seen. One can only hope.
But there is no doubt that this entire spectacle has left an awful taste in the mouths of many who had embarked in this journey with rather modest expectations of what was promised would be a race marked with the utmost civility and decor, rather than the grand comedy of errors it has turned out to be thus far; especially from two candidates who solemnly pledged a new era of politics free from character assassination tactics.
The political paparazzi are poised to catch the next odious gesture from either candidate. The pundits are dissecting every word, analyzing every nuance; and seizing upon any passing remark with even a smidgen of potentially racist or misogynist undertones. As for Hillary, her strategists are very likely brainstorming, working feverishly to avoid making her campaign look like an exercise in futility, and dirt digging at a frenzied pace, while the clock is ticking and the candle burns at both ends, into what probably will be a long, hot summer.
But Hillary is not known to be of the sort that graciously accepts defeat with dignity -- and very few Democratic hopefuls have recently displayed a good loser mentality anyway. Coupled with the fact that she has devoted her whole earthly existence to reaching this summit, the next few weeks will undoubtedly bring some very entertaining, and perhaps shocking surprises from her camp. After all, what has she got to lose now?
And who can forbid her tenacity, when the alternative would be forever regretting having been a fool who allowed fate to get in the way of a destiny she had so painstakingly orchestrated.
I am watching and savoring any moment of The Beast going down the drain, kind of a sweet revenge I am enjoying for my suffering and humiliation under scumbag Bill. I may sound selfish speaking for myself, but I dare to believe there are millions of people in US with similar feelings.
Can anybody figure out how to free this planet from Clintons? Perhaps sending them on the first space flight to Mars with enough fuel to get there but not back.
Recall the famous quote from Louisiana politics, originally uttered by Huey Long:”The only way I can lose this election is if I’m caught in bed with either a dead girl or a live boy”.
In this day and age, Obama could be caught in bed with both at the same time, and his sycophants, particularly those with similar melanin characteristics, would still vote for him.
Well-said.
For conservatives, the sight of McCain, all puckered up, on his knees, sucking up to inavders, is nauseating,
Keep in mind, McCain's handlers are cheerleaders for the current admin's most disastrous policies---amnesty/SW giveaway, and the bleeding of young lives and trillions of tax dollars into Iraq.
The pukeneo cheerleaders are the same people who backed RINO Giuliani. Rooty has achieved cult status for running the stupidest losing campaign in US history.
When Rooty tanked like a deadweight down a 300 foot cistern, the pukeneos unleashed Giuliani and went looking for McCain. The name of their game is religious cleansing of the Repub party, and kicking conservatives to the curb.
Watch McC when he talks about the Hundred Year War and amnesty---his posture changes---as the pukeneos tighten his leash.
No comparison to Maggie Thatcher!! She was all about caring about what was good her country.
Hillary is like a wild, possessed animal seeking power for herself. She & her slime husband have already proved they will sell out our country to get what they want.
They are greedy egomaniacs who feel entitled to whatever they want. They will do anything & use anybody to get it.
Thave no compassion for anyone or anything that they destroy.
Now, if only Hillary would fade into oblivion.
“Can anybody figure out how to free this planet from Clintons? Perhaps sending them on the first space flight to Mars with enough fuel to get there but not back.”
Somewhere off in the far,far future we may land man/woman on Mars. Do you really want a bunch of Clintonites meeting them?
“Now, if only Hillary would fade into oblivion.”
A used car lot just outside of Little Rock for her and Bill would be fine with me..
Of course the car warranties would be 5 miles or 5 minutes, whichever come first and you’d be lucky to make it off the lot without running out of gas..
“She’s not going ANYWHERE! The Clintons will NEVER let a BLACK GUY BEAT THEM...NEVER!!”
And that is why Hillary will not win the nomination but will be the nominee.
What is that a picture of?
And Obama is now too damaged to be elected anywhere without a racist kook voting block.
Hehehe.
And what does it have to do with two incompetent but power hungry commies becoming the leader of the free world for the next 4 years?
I'll let you worry for me.
Well, you reap what you sow.
“But there is no doubt that this entire spectacle has left an awful taste in the mouths of many who had embarked in this journey”
I think it tastes like the Democrat Party drinking grape Koolaid - ummmm sweet!
I was talking about the picture. I dont know what it was or what it had to do with the thread.
I think it’s Britney Spears being hauled away when there was concern about her committing suicide.
You’re right.
