    HELD OVER, MUST READ: Mark Penn and Senator Clinton: It's a Matter of Trust -- The BuzzFlash Editor's Blog. If You Want to Know Why Penn Was Ostensibly Demoted But Not Fired, Ask Why Colombia's Uribe Fiercely Attacked Barack Obama Twice This Week and Not Hillary Clinton? A Clinton Campaign Strategy Backfired by Involving a Foreign Nation in the American Election Process. Someone Had to Pay the Price, and So Hillary Clinton's Prince of Darkness Walked the Plank.

    "In short, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-NY, is systematically delegitimizing the Democratic Party's presidential nominee. I have never seen anything like it -- and it is genuinely fascinating in all its paradoxical squalor."

  • Declining days of hillary

    Margaret Campbell, a Montana state legislator, plans to declare her support for Senator Obama, of Illinois. She becomes the 69th superdelegate he has picked up since the Feb. 5 coast-to-coast string of primary elections and caucus votes.

    In the same period, Senator Clinton, of New York, has seen a net loss of two superdelegates, according to figures from the Obama campaign that Clinton aides do not dispute. That erosion may dim Mrs. Clinton’s remaining hopes even more than internal campaign turmoil, which led to the ouster on Sunday of the campaign’s chief strategist, Mark Penn.

    and all the hand wringing and hair tearing will not get her the nomination. She has run a less than a competent campaign. She blew her campaign war chest, hired hacks to run her show and let loose a combustible husband who sabotaged her chances very early on in the game. Now, hillary and her surrogate mouthpiece Salon, would like to dump her garbage at Obama's door. Tough titties. She snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Many books will be written on how hillary, the queen-in-waiting, lost to a young upstart who had more integrity in his little finger than in all of hillary's sorry life. hillary lost after she went negative.

  • Which Democrat Has the Administrative Experience to Be An Effective President? Compare How Well They've Managed Their Campaigns

    In this department, the race is not even close. Barack Obama has proved himself a much more capable executive and leader than Hillary Clinton -- despite her claim of superior "experience."

    The weekend saw yet another eruption of organizational dysfunction in the House of Hillary. Mark Penn's demotion from the post of chief strategist capped months of organizational in-fighting that has apparently turned the Clinton campaign into a latter-day Beirut-on-the-Potomac.

    Yup. Them hillary dems know how to demonize Arabs and Muslims as bogeymen. Right out of the Rove and Atwater playbook. When 3 am prowler in the night did not work, why not go after the Arab connection? They call themselves democrats. Let's out the republican trolls.

    Some republican trolls are multi page wonders, repetitive, bogus and racist. When hillary loses they'll vote for McCain. Didn't hillary put them up to that? Remember how McCain was ready to be CinC than Obama? Anyone who will vote for McCain is no democrat. The cat's out of the bag with that and some rather racist posts.

  • Former Clinton people now supporting Obama

    Folks, listen to the people who were close to the Clintons -- they're not honest, they're not for blue-collar working folks, and they're not for the U.S. They're typical egocentric self-centered boomers.

    -- JTSJTS

    Also, listen to former Clinton aides and staffers who are now enthusiastically supporting Obama. They left the Clintons because of their congenital lying and cheating. Here are a few names. Google and find out why they don't trust the Clintons.

    I've personally done MUCH civil rights work in the deep south -- even come home with bullet holes in our car from working to keep black clients out of the electric chair. Get a grip

    Uhmmmm! Right. That's what you all say. Might you have held Bull Connor's hose?

    "Had I been there at the time, I would have been on the same side of the hose as you. I HAVE been guarded by a small town local sheriff with a police dog in the back of his pick up truck while we had first ever demonstrations in a small southern town because one of our lawyers was in jail for contempt of court for trying to recuse a trial jusge on the grounds of racism -- a white lawyer. Just because someone does not agree with you does not mean they are racist."

    Soo how many black people did you save from the electric chair again?

    If what you say is true, then I applaud you. Of course, I have no way of knowing if what you say is true. But I will take your word for it.

    Someone who is that committed to social justice will sit out the GE when Obama wins, is truly mind boggling. Excusing hillary for her misdemeanors is another. Obama is a strong candidate and whether you will vote for him or not, he will still win, because most Americans will do the right thing this time around. The stakes are too high and besides, hillary has already lost.

  • The Democratic Party's Fascinating Squalor

    [Read the article: Why Hillary Clinton should be winning]

    The more presumptive Barack Obama's nomination becomes -- which should serve to unify and strengthen the party -- the more presumptuous Hillary Clinton's campaign becomes -- which serves only to divide and weaken the party. But whether you find that bilateral paradox frustrating or fatiguing, you have to admit the Clinton camp's singular presumptuousness is also quite fascinating. In itself it has become our political "Show of Shows," pretty much the only thing readers care to read, or viewers view.
