Viva Hillary Clinton!

Although she won Puerto Rico easily, Clinton seemed to be campaigning in an alternate reality, as hopes for the nomination slipped away.

    For me the goal at the very beginning

    was to stop Hillary Clinton from being President.

    I was prepared for a McCain presidency, so long as it meant that Hillary Clinton would not be elected.

    Now I'd rather Obama win than McCain, but again as long as Hillary is out of it all the better.

    I was concerned that if Obama lost in November, she could come back in 4 years. But as much as her supporters want to pretend it isn't going to happen, should Obama lose the white vote and/or the female vote, an overwhelming majority of Democrats will lay a big steaming pile of the blame on the Clintons. I don't care if you think its warranted or not, she's getting enough of the blame to doom her presidential aspirations forever. And that's good enough for me.

    As for McCain, here's a little storm on the horizon. Two of his top economic advisors will very soon be investigated for energy price fixing. This Obama guy must have an angel on his shoulder.

    Every single opponent he comes up against mortally wounds themselves.

    The prize is already won. The election is over; Hillary wil NOT be President.

    Conservatives say their election was lost the moment Romney dropped out. In this election, there is no conservative running for President. McCain came to Senate Democrats on bended knee begging to be part of the Democratic caucus after his loss to Bush. He asked to be considered for Kerry's running mate. If your a left-of-center non-partisan, the race is already over my friends. Obama or McCain, the Reagan Revolution is dead.

    And the Clintons are gone as well. Win lose or draw, America is far better off.
