The most enjoyable aspect of watching the HMS Hillary take on water is the prospect that Bill - and his cult of personality - will go down with the ship, too.
Bill Clinton has been stumping for his wife on the Iowa hustings, framing the election as a referendum on his tenure as president. Last month in Muscatine (during the same speech in which he falsely claimed to have opposed the Iraq war from the beginning), he told the assembled Democrats that HMS Hillary could transport America "back to the future."
Last summer, when he first started hawking Mrs. Clinton like a door-to-door salesman, he told a crowd: "I know, some people say, 'Look at them. They're old. They're sort of yesterday's news.' Well, yesterday's news was pretty good."
Indeed, Hillary's entire campaign has been grounded in her experience in the Clinton administration of the 1990s, even though that experience mostly involves designing a failed health care plan and unsuccessfully hectoring her husband to move to the left.
So if Mrs. Clinton loses the race for the nomination - heck, even if she just loses the Iowa caucuses - I hope to see this headline somewhere, perhaps in the New York Post: "America to Clinton(s): We're Just Not That Into You."

For far, far more than you ever cared to know, about the wife of the second President to be impeached, click the picture and scroll backwards:
If this empty suit somehow pulls off back-to-back wins in Iowa and New Hampshire, the news media will start asking him real questions and he'll fold like a cheap tent. Hillary will be the Democrat nominee. Obama might be the vice-presidential nominee if it is determined he will be useful to add to the likeabilty which Hillary lacks. He certainly adds nothing else to the ticket.
Oh, man... that would be sweet...
The very thought makes me chortle like Patty and Selma after viewing a particularly satisfying McGuyver episode...
At least the “Former Occupant of the Oval Office, 1993-2001” has stopped buliding “bridges to the 21st Century”, as we are already here. Now he wants to build the bridge BACK to some halcyon past romanticized by Norman Rockwell, a time that never was, like Brigadoon or Camelot.
The man is truly an architect of the imagination. Too bad he is nearly illiterate (which shows the world how much contempt I have for his intellectual attainment).
The most important thing I derive from this article is that it was in the Baltimore Sun.
I just read another story ridiculing Mrs. Clinton from the N.Y. Times.
If these kind of liberal rags are turning on her heinous then maybe she really does have problems.
By the way, when do ya think some of the photos of Bill with another fat broad will appear in public?
That is kind of my take, too. It is so satisfying to imagine Mrs. Bill falling apart in the early primaries and not even showing in the later ones because of her early failure but it does not take into account the realities of the Clintons and MSM.If she blows it in Iowa and NH, even North Carolina, it only means that Hussein or Edwards will take a violent fall soon after and leave Mrs. Bill the only one standing. Of course the Democrats could turn en masse to the short guy...
She has “problems” but she also has FBI files and she has the use of methods that have not been seen outside of big city machine politics except with the Clintons. I don’t think Obama or Edwards could survive attaining an actual commanding lead in the primaries. Running well against the Clintons is dangerous.
Question. In a democratic primary, who do the dead vote for?
I know exactly how to get what I want. The Mainstream Press will obey me or they will feel my wrath. After all, I am the Fairest of Them All.
/Sarcasm oFF
Don't think so. Democrats are Democrats precisely because they will do exactly what the lamestream enemedia tells them to do, with few exceptions.
Remember how quickly they came on board with horseface in 2004 once their polls showed he could beat Bush? Quickly swept into a memory hole were Howard Dean's pre-Iowa caucus pronouncements that all his years in Washington made him part of the problem, not part of the solution.
Remember how quickly his thin resume (world's most successful gigolo) was suddenly enhanced to include a wide range of faux expertise in every field near and dear to the far left?
Actually, I was being snide.
