More proof the Democrats are self-destructive
Democrats by more than a 2-1 margin say Hillary Clinton should stay in the presidential race even if she loses either the Texas or Ohio primary on Tuesday.
If Hillary doesn’t win both contests, and by significant margins, the chances of her catching up to Obama in delegates are very slim indeed. At that point, the only thing her staying in the race does is diminish the chances of a Democrat winning in November.
It is unfortunate in a way. After totally blowing her campaign post-Super Tuesday, She finally seems to have found her legs again. With the assistance of SNL, she has managed to portray herself as a victim of the press who have been giving Obama a free pass, and the press, who collectively seem to have the intelligence of amoeba, have decided in their infinitesimal wisdom that they should therefore level the playing field by going overboard on their attacks on Obama, just so they don’t appear to be “unfair”.
How much this will help Hillary we’ll find out tonight, but McCain is certainly benefitting. Rush Limbaugh may be a blowhard, but he knows who benefits most from Hillary’s continued campaigning, which is why he, and a lot of other Republican supporters, (like our Conservative government, for instance), are doing everything they can to help tear Obama down.
Hell, even Hillary herself now appears like she might be campaigning as much for McCain as for herself.
“I have a lifetime of experience I will bring to the White House. I know Senator McCain has a lifetime of experience he will bring to the White House. And Senator Obama has a speech he made in 2002″
I guess that's her form of "reaching across the aisle". Throw your fellow Democrat under the bus while boosting your Republican opponent. Maybe the VP slot she should be vying for if she loses today is the one on McCain's ticket.
Whatever else, I don’t want to see the Democrats wasting their resources beating each other down for the next several months, because I really, really don’t want to listen to failed Beach Boy President McCain tell us all how great his “bomb, bomb Iran” strategy really is.
Update:
Video from Keith Obermann's show from last night. Nice to see Rachel Maddow agrees with my point above about which VP slot Hillary is angling for.
