Just a week ago, Hillary's campaign was on the ropes and it seemed that Obama was going to float into the White House on wings of doves with choirs of angles. I was one of many who thought Hillary '08 was over, but she had different ideas. She campaigned aggressively and pulled out key victories in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island. A week later, Hillary's not letting up and Obama's still staggering from the blows. She keeps reminding America of 3:00 AM while Obama whines that she's a Mean Girl who should stop picking on him. He's like Veronica Sawyer, shocked to discover that the Heathers play rough and longing for his Betty Finn days when his toughest opponent was crazy Alan Keyes.
Frankly, for all the talk of Hillary going negative, I think it's been pretty fair and mild. This is nothing compared to what the Republican smear machine has in mind for nominee Obama when and if they don't have Hillary to kick around any more. The Rethugs will have him in a sleeper cell before the balloons hit the floor in Denver. Why, his middle name alone will be enough to deliver Dixie to McCain if Obama keeps up his mild pace.
My biggest issue with Obama has long been that he's untested. We don't know how he'll stand up to the fire hose of filth the GOP will open up. We know how Hillary can take it, but Obama? In the past week we've seen one of his key staffers fired because she called Hillary a name. Instead of standing up for his advisor, he abandoned her at the first peep from Team Hillary. That was easy, who's next? I half expect Obama to ask Hillary in an open debate "why are you such a mega-bitch?" I wish he would, just to hear her answer. (FF to 3.39).
Hillary's on a roll and isn't giving up her hard-earned momentum without a fight. They're headed to Pennsylvania with Hillary hammering on experience and toughness and Obama's hard hitting pitch this week has been...well...the delegate count. That might win Wolf Blitzer's vote, but the lunch-bucket Dems in Pittsburgh could give a shit. I'm betting Hillary's their girl.
Eventually, Veronica toughened up, lighting a cigarette off the smoldering remains of her boyfriend. I could see Hillary doing that in a second, then delivering a kick-ass foreign policy speech without skipping a beat. But Obama? He'd report a fire code violation and talk about delegate selection in Texas.
Bitch is the new black. Get used to it.

Wow. I'll admit I'm partial to Barack, but if linking to a Gloria Gaynor song is the best you can do to speak of Clinton's supposed experience than it doesn't really speak well for her now does it. There are some pretty even-keeled and balanced looks at both of their records. And if your honest about your support I'd suggest you got to the Library of Congress website and compare their *actual* records in Congress. I think you'll be surprised by what you find out. It certainly isn't in keeping with the hype on either campaign.

I'm actually psyched we have good candidates this year but I can't agree that Hillary is so much more qualified than Obama. She's just better known.
But I do like Heathers.
