As to Hillary: I think she was remembering her emotions when she landed, which is usually what we remember and the case of most mis-remembering. Our emotions create a narrative which we overlay on to our actions.
But as to Salon: I really don't care who wins the vote, since Hillary and Obama both have essentially the same platform; one will provide a model of a black leader and other a leadership model for women. I think the US wins on either accounts. But I'm really kind of tired of the lame way Salon keeps ranting on incessantly with the obvious Obama bias. A couple of meagre observations about Obama don't count for actual balanced journalistic investigation. The negative articles and opinions about Hillary are not even investigative, they're barely even rhetorical . . . in fact sometimes it's just pure vitriol. I'm getting kind of sick of it. It's weak writing and lame politics.
