She was ready for her close up last night, Mr. DeMille!

I, for one, can't imagine Hilary actually working *for* someone else in 
any kind of job in the usual way.  No matter what it is, it's about 
Hilary.  Just look at her speech last night.  Her speech was about 
herself, McCain's was an attack piece on Obama, and Obama's speech was 
about our nation's future.

I predicted that we would soon see exactly what Ma Clintin's made of.  
In fact, it's shaping up to be the perfect storm, much more so than if 
either candidate had won sooner.  With each passing day, "the next 
President of the United States" (as Terry McAuliffe introduced her last 
night) moves onward toward a less and less ethical Final Solution to the 
Negro Problem.

Now she turns, by her own admission, to the process of making 
superdelegates "change their minds".  There has to be some way of 
reversing Obama's lead in pledged delegates (i. e., elected, in the 
DemNatCom Newspeak).  If ordinary oratory falls short, maybe more 
Cajun-style approaches remain.  It's even possible, for instance, that 
if this particular set of superdelegates aren't willing to change their 
minds by any means necessary, some other set of superdelegates might.

It's hard to entertain the possibility of this spoiled little girl 
stealing the nomination, without getting extremely upset.  But that's 
what you get with a candidate whose political career is entirely 
derivative from that of her husband, with more potentially damaging 
baggage than all the other candidates put together, and whose coalition 
consists mostly of old ladies, racists, and the very ignorant.

Here's a great website where you can keep an eye on this horrible 
spectacle.  It's updated often and is completely unbiased:
