A HILLARY 'LANDSLIDE'???
Such conditions, irrespective of vote tally, can never a 'landslide' make.
Nonetheless, missus clinton dumped 30-million-dollars' worth of false advertising 2 into the race: Standard-issue clinton sleight-of-hand intended to transmute:
The purpose of the 30-million-dollar demagogic infusion was to create the illusion of a landslide in New York in '06, which would, (so the wishful thinking goes), create the illusion of national electability in '08, an absolute prerequisite to nomination for someone with a Q Score as wanting as missus clinton's. 6
FUZZY MATH AT THE NEW YORK TIMES
The official New York State Board of Elections tally will not be available until mid-December, a sufficient time lag for Pinch and Company 7 to exaggerate the significance of the hillary vote and for the mischaracterization to become firmly fixed in our collective 'history.' Truth and America matter not at all to The New York Times. Agenda is everything. 8 The Times' clinton endorsements redux. 9
If missus clinton won two-thirds of the total vote and two-thirds of the male vote, she could not have won three-quarters of female vote unless the total female vote was at or about zero. Similarly, if she won two-thirds of the total vote and three-quarters of female vote, she could not have won two-thirds of the male vote.
SPITZER'S ZIPPER
For her entire adult (such as it is) life, zipper-hoisting has been missus clinton's principal means of upward mobility. 10 This election was no different.
Zipper-hoisting has, in the past, proven to be a sticky wicket for missus clinton, owing not to antithetical feminist ideology, as one would expect -- feminists willingly sacrificed feminism on the altar of clintonism -- but to zipper choice, her rather injudicious attachment early on to a certain zipper habitually on the downslide.
This time she picked zippers a bit better, glomming onto Eliot's.
Contrary to 'conventional wisdom,' the coattails (if you'll pardon the mixed metaphor) were Eliot's, not hers. The three percent who voted for Spitzer who could not overcome their revulsion to pull the lever for hillary tell it all.

'Knownothing-Victim' and 'Failure' are missus clinton's middle names.

HILLARY CLINTON REPRISES FATAL CLINTON ERROR
The most potent weapon in the terrorist's arsenal is the psychological--the selective use of real information, disinformation, manipulation of the press, propaganda, and other psychological (Psy-Ops) warfare methods.
Missus clinton's "hortatory" notwithstanding, these are also the clintons' and the Left's weapons of choice in their domestic wars.
In asymmetric warfare, the belligerents are, by definition, of unequal power: The terrorists lack the military might. The clintons and the American Left lack the ideas. Psychological warfare is the most easily attainable equalizer.
Missus clinton's rejection of the essential strategic value of the psychological--of hope (and despair)--in the War on Terror reprises a fatal clinton error.
Saddam Hussein won the stand-off with the United States in early 1998 over chemical/biological weapons and inspections of his palaces, in part because he was able to manipulate public opinion in the United States and elsewhere and split the former allied Persian Gulf coalition. Indeed, had the clintons understood this dynamic, even Saddam's Oil-for-Food kickback scheme would have been more difficult to pull off. Had the clintons understood this dynamic, the Iraq War, arguably, would have been averted.
Similarly, Osama bin Laden won in Somalia because the clintons chose to deny this dynamic. Had the clintons chosen otherwise, i.e., had they chosen America's interests instead of their own, (protecting their poll numbers and winning the Nobel Peace Prize), 911 would be today nothing more than the universal emergency phone number and al Qaeda would be no more than a loose collection of virtual sapper squads put together for the purpose of committing one act and then disbanding and dispersing, which was the precise scenario in 1993 when they bombed the World Trade Center and the clintons did nothing.

Yesterday, Daniel Patrick Moynihan died. Today, the clintons are arrogating his soul. Hardly surprising. In 1999, the clintons were not at all shy about seizing his still-warm senate seat.

issus clinton ran for reelection against an unfunded* third-stringer with zero name recognition; that is to say, she ran virtually unopposed. 
... While America appears not to be ready for a female president under any circumstances, the post-9/11 realities pose special problems for a female presidential candidate. Add to these the problems unique to missus clinton. The reviews make the mistake of focusing on the problems of the generic female presidential candidate running during ordinary times.
It is ironic that had the clintons not 
Hillary Clinton's revisionist tome notwithstanding, 'living history' begets a certain symmetry. It is in that light that I make this not-so-modest proposal on this day, exactly 64 years after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
