    Of course, you know that "creative class" they don't have to worry. That is what we need another callous president. "Who me worry? ". Great.

  • Thank you Mr. Wilentz

    Great clarity without all the magical thinking. Please, please if you are not convinced about the idiocy of the Rules, watch the C-Span video of how the DNC made the decision to strip Florida of it's delegates. This was a travesty in justice and political thinking.

    The Democratic party contrived and gyrated with the rules and made the classic planning mistake, they did not plan for the worst case scenario. Thank you Dean and Brazille. What they basically now are spewing about the rules reminds me of the basic right wing value: Zero tolerance with no justice.

    Pay no attention to the mob, they rarely read, watch or listen to anything beyond their comfort zone. They have made up this notion that you are somehow connected to the Clinton's when, which is a direct right wing notion from the National Review. Welcome to the Animal farm world: Four legs good, two legs bad.

  • Credibility

    Can the author provide links and or sources for the spending? The sourcing is rather thin.

  • Thank you Joan

    Keep doing your job. Tell the truth as you always will. We are here and we support you.

  • Camille trying to be relevant

    You try and try to be shocking and relevant, but I guess it's not working. Hillary is the best thing that could happen to you. You can spew and stew just like Maureen Dowd. I can just see the trio, you, Maureen and Coulter, churning in venomous bile.

    You should pray for Hillary to win so that you can have a platform. Otherwise what will you do if McCain or Obama win?

    As someone enthroned in the armada you should be glad we did all the dirty work in the trenches of government and society so you can sit and have your so called literary voice.

  • Lets compare and contrast

    You end the article with this most compelling argument, oh so sure that it buries Hillary cause its such a cause celebre among the blogo boyz.

    The positions that Clinton has been taking vis-à-vis Obama in the past month appear to open up major vulnerabilities in the fall. McCain's national security experience in Vietnam trumps Clinton's national security experience in Tuzla, Bosnia.

    Was Hillary in Bosnia at war time as an adult? Yes.

    Vis a vis, Obama's self proclaimed credentials:

    A child in Indonesia and a college trip to Pakistan and in his own words "impoverished relatives in Kenya".

    Another vis a vis foreign policy issue: Boycotting the opening ceremonies in China:

    What Obama said:

    "I am of two minds about this, ...On the one hand, I think that what has happened in Tibet, China's support for the Sudanese government in Darfur, is a real problem." Still, Obama said, "I am hesitant to make the Olympics a site of political protest because I think it's partly about bringing the world together."

    What Hillary said:

    I believe President Bush should not plan on attending the opening ceremonies in Beijing, absent major changes by the Chinese government.

    Vis a vis, of course in your world and in the liberal boy world, a boy's childhood experience is worth much more than an adult woman's experience as first lady and ambassador for America over an 8 year period.

    Do you realize how ridiculous you apologists for Obama are?

    Funny thing about sexism, people do it all the time and when you point it out, even in it's obvious forms, you will be attacked of being a feminist. If we don't need feminism, why is it still used as an insult.

    Why just today, Obama said, in the Faith Based forum on CNN, he is not sure and not decided when life is conceived. Gee, what if he decides during his presidency the wrong way, where do we women stand?

    So, when Obama and his minions attack Hillary, why is that ok and not damaging? Why is that not Rovian? He has not won the nomination and neither has she, why are the attacks ok on her, the racism, the lying crap, etc. etc, ok? Why is he special?

    When Kennedy and Kerry decided to pass the torch before people voted, that was a sure sign of sexism. They assumed the torch was theirs to pass, not the voters.

    The Obama campaign has purposefully damaged the Democratic party.
