"Bullshit. Those pussies are so petrified of her they want no part of her as the candidate. If she is then they could lose to her, as they've lost to the Clintons for 25 years."
Um, for someone who "I assume" hates GW Bush, you sure do sound like him. Sure, "bring it on" sounded better and had less words but then he might have had more time.
Yes people are crossing over to the democrats to vote against Hillary. Not because they are afraid of her, because they hate her. And, when (and if) the time comes, republicans, independents, Southern democrats and a whole bunch of other folks are going to line up to vote against her again.
As far as this article goes, two points:
1. Of course Joan Walsh is biased. She is identifying with Hillary to the point where it is unreasonable to expect anything different. So be it. There are a lot of writers out there doing the same thing with Obama. Just do what I do and skim the article for anything of value.
2. Because the race is so close, California doesn't mean jack squat. Sure Hillary may get to turn the state her color on tim Russert's map. But, because THE DELEGATES ARE AWARDED PROPORTIONATELY Hillary will make little delegate headway in this state. Both candidates need to dominate in the states where they have huge leads to gobble up all the delegates they can.
This is what was missing from Joan's oh so fair and balanced story.
