Clinton gets her party started

Wins in Massachusetts, California and other big states, plus an uncommonly good speech by their candidate, made a New York Super Tuesday crowd very happy.

    Hillary

    "on the day shift, on the night shift, on the late shift with the crying baby ... all those who aren't in the headlines but who have always written America's story."

    I loved this line. Nothing is funnier than elite people talk'in 'bout shift work 'n day care, 'n unemployment - things they know nothing about having never experienced them. Hillary looks wonderful compared with Bush, but then anyone looks wonderful compared with Bush. Frankly, she is not a great speaker, but who cares? I would vote for anyone who can promise (and hopefully actually deliver) universal health care. Obama has about as much substance as cotton candy. If these two deomcratic candidates are the best the plutocracy can serve up, so be it, I'll take Hillary. Beggars can't be choosers, though we are sold the illusion that we are.
