LINCOLN'S GOOD KARMA LEGACY
When did they ever stop crossing the line. They left the line so far behind you can't see it. They can't remember there ever was one. The shrill shrieking madness of Hillary simply exhausts. Monster's can be cute. Hillary is NOT.
When Bill Clinton says "pledged delegates do not have to vote as they have pledged", that comes from such an ethically bankrupt place. When Hillary wants to count Michigan votes as they stand, that is utterly, boldly and shamelessly corrupt. Painful calculations and maneuvers with no guilt or conscience. When Hillary's unequivocally blatant lies about her support of NAFTA come home to roost, she tries to pin Canadian fallout on Barack.
The Clinton's cunningly initiated framing the election around race in South Carolina, and it hasn't stopped. Getting all the mileage she could from others on Rev Wright first, before she picked up that slimy ball. It's all bottom line to her. Barack could call her judgement into question for being married to an adulterer, but he doesn't.
Sniper fire in Bosnia? Are we to believe she can't properly recall whether or not she was shot at? People don't say she
mis-speaks, they say she LIES.
Hillary says caucus states are over-run by radicals & don't count, "red states" don't count, small states don't count, & states won with blacks don't count. Only big states that any democrat would carry, and states universally disqualified (before any voting began), count.
Hillary began with a sense of entitlement that well-connected corporate candidates have. Only with the shock of losing has she become more plaintive. And it's all calculated manipulations. Are we to believe still, that this tough woman was all choked up in New Hampshire. Or was it that a poll the
day before said she came off as cold. She's all over the map chasing polls. She doesn't have the even consistency that comes with honesty and integrity.
And all this lowest common denominator depravity is plain to see, in your face, cold, desperate, nasty, and sad, day in and day out. She has positively become a pariah that has turned
a hopeful political process putrid. It seems nothing is sacred to her.
Barack is a vote magnet. Hillary is a vote dredge. Were it not for the media incorrectly calling Texas a Hillary win (to keep the race and ratings going), and an SNL skit that for the first time did not back the progressive candidate, she might have had to fold. Now her operatives are trying to strong-arm Nancy Pelosi?
You know, I was thinking. Lincoln is one of a handful of presidents that touch us. I've been reading yet another biography of the man, and it leapt out at me. When Lincoln ran for president, he was a relatively new and unknown candidate from Illinois, a back-woods lawyer having only served one term in Congress. Not favored to win, he was under-estimated by pundits and opponents, and it was his gift for words and persuasive speaking that was his strongest asset. He healed many political wounds, by embracing those of opposing parties (ultimately appointing some of them to his cabinet). Sound like anyone we know? How ironic and karmic that Lincoln would free the very people who's lineage would eventually carry his torch in a most passionate and inspirational way.
Yes Lincoln could. Yes Barack can. Yes we can. To better days!
