The Clintons turned the Democratic Party into a star vehicle. . . .

By making Bill into a rock star, they prepared the way for a Barack star. The Clintons got "Starred" after all.

Soros (et al.) has placed bets on Obomba and Hillary! - not sure of the allocation, but suspect Obambi was a diversion to make his main bet, Hillary!, look better. It seems to me that now they want to “go for broke”, and thus have changed many Hillary! chips for Obama chips.

Hillary is what the Clintons look like with their pants up.

Let's hope Hillary, in a desperate grab for Democrat decadence votes, doesn't drop her pantsuit.

Yes! Absolutely!

Hillary is what the Clintons look like with their pants up. Their much-vaunted political savvy turns out to be a big nothing: The supposed masters of "the politics of personal destruction" can't turn up anything better on Obama than some ancient essay from his Jakarta grade school, plus a few limp charges of plagiarism. And instead of getting the surrogates to crowbar the enemy every time Hillary opens up on him she looks mean and petty, and he gets to do his high-minded Obamessiah routine...

And, worst of all for Bill and Hill, the Dems found a new star – their first in 16 years. Look at it from Hillary's point of view: She'd expected to run against the likes of Joe Biden, Bill Richardson, Chris Dodd – the usual mediocrities and misfits. Then Barack Obama came along, and did what the Clintons did in 1992 – saw his opportunity and seized it. All of a sudden, she's the Bill Richardson – worthy but dull, earthbound and joyless, lead weights round her ankles.

He NAILS it! As always ...

"She has a melancholy dignity in decline. She knows she would make the better president, but every time she tries to explain why it sounds prosaic and unromantic. Bill gave the party an appetite for slick lounge acts, and this time round Barack's the guy delivering it in buckets of gaseous uplift. Can Barbra Streisand and the Supergays get Hillary airborne again? I doubt it. Go back to that Staples Center entrance in 2000, and try to imagine Hill walking that walk. How far would she get before the applause died away and she'd be padding that endless corridor to no audible accompaniment but the clack of her heels?"

Steyn can write one hellava piece.

Mark says exactly what I’ve been saying. Obama does what Bill did.

This mornng on F&F some empty suit said, “I’ve never seen anyone with such a meteoric rise as Obama.”

I looked at my hubby and said, “Where what this guy in 1992?”

Steyn is right.

Excellent Steyn article as usual. Should be a must read.

This article about Barack Obama by David Kahane in the National Review Online is excellent. His next to the last paragraph is right on the money:

"But now the magic is beginning to wear off. Instead of the second coming of Jesus Christ, some of us are beginning to sense the second coming of Jim Jones. Instead of a new redeemer, we’re looking at an undistinguished first-term senator with no paper trail, a wife with a major-league chip on her shoulder, a politician from the insalubrious precincts of Bathhouse John Coughlin and Hinky Dink Kenna’s old hometown of Chicago."

It is time to stop being afraid to critize Obama.

Good luck with that!
