Hillary's wake
Her riverrun. Passed evenly Barack, from brunt of frontrunner to the newly emotive sighs and simple veil of tears. HRC won the vital New Hampshire primay , soundly trumping Obama's victory in Iowa last week. Good for her. Gene's not on a roll, it's a hotwing streak. A ripping writer always, that Lyons. He's been sounding a grave note of an historical timbre lately. Scroll, if you but will, read you must!
As I see it, Obama got pantsed into playing it too close to the vest thinking he could cherry pick his way to the nomination, but Ober-Tuesday looms and he's now faced with a life or death fight in the Nevada primary. If he loses that one, he's finished. If he wins, he'll get stiffed by media, and scoot into O/T like Eddie Murphy in 48 Hours.
Tomorrow's debate should be very interesting for Hillary, who has the money and organisation to win anywhere, she should go all out to win in Nevada Saturday and that would finish much of the sound and fury of Obama for President, and hopefully end this waste of money and media attention. It's time for people get back to their real jobs.
Hillary should then start to talk about the manifest evil of private capital being raised to finance the campaigns of public office seekers, and perhaps contemplate with us the insanity that has led us hither. Corruption, to my mind, is a winning issue in any election. People understand how bribery works, but they haven't time to disarm every crook, just some of the low hanging fruit.
Universal healthcare? Sure, but I would be on the lookout for some dangerous side effects. I don't know what's keeping the economy afloat now, but I'm sure lots of jobs in the "bankrupt the sick sector" depend on keeping the snowball rolling. Scratch, spin, change back from your dollar. The quality of mercy is not strained...but floweth not unlike the indemnity scheme, upon rivers of cash.
Hillary Rodham Clinton
