Hillary enters death-with-dignity phase

If she hasn't already quit, it's hard to envision Clinton continuing her unwinnable -- even with Florida and Michigan -- battle beyond June 4.

    UH, NO

    This must be making you guys completely nuts.

    -- meffert

    Evidently all the Dem voters beyond the ivory towers and the latte counters at Starbucks aren't nuts about it...they just reject the talking points spouted by Obamabots out of hand...they don't want Hillary gone, not by a long shot...and they even want Obama to pick her as VP, showing that they really don't give a damn what his supporters say or do.

    But why would Hillary want to be on a sinking ship that is Obama? The man is a chimera, a case of smoke and mirrors...beyond the clever rhetoric and boring lectures, is a man who is very much what Reverend Wrong said he was: a politician, as calculating and craven as any of those out there, including the woman Obamabots love to hate, Hillary.

    Beyond the Alice In Wonderland of his supporters, America sees a man that they still know way too little about, a man who says one thing, but really means another, whose toxic supporters claim to be for uniting the country, yet engage in the same old politics of divisiveness with snide ageist, sexist cant. America sees through the sludge he and his surrogates are spilling, far worse than anything Hillary has done.
