Unfortunately. The rumors of her political death are greatly exaggerated.
bttt
As if it might actually require the sorry likes of a Hillary Clinton -- or pretty much anybody with a working IQ appreciably above ambient room temperature or thereabouts, really -- to effectively accomplish THAT much, between now and 11/07.
Obama knocked Clinton off her game plan 2 years ago.
He announced early. She intended to wait until much later, to save resources.
His announcement forced her into the race last January 2007.
The upstart-Obama had the audicity to continue to challenge her! How dare he???!!!??? Didn’t he read the memo that she was the presumptive inevitable????
Instead of withdrawing, Obama continued to challenge. A few early wins put him close to even with her. She won a couple. Obama bounced back, took the lead, and has maintained it for 11 primaries.
Clinton expected no serious Democratic challenge 2 years ago. Even then she perceived Obama as an exuberent young politician who was jumping in to ‘the big one’ way too early in his career. He surprised her. He got on a roll and picked up steam, as she lost steam.
Obama knocked Clinton off her game plan, and she never fully recovered. She never could find a way to actually combat him. Ole BJ-the-first-black-president ended up hurting, more than helping, her.
Is this going to end like the “Crying Game”?
Referring to Bill, “... one of the most popular presidents in history as our understudy”
Really? By what measure?
Clinton committed one big mistake: she kept morphing into different characters.
Like Gore reinventing himself half-a-dozen times and Kerry reintroducing himself over and over, Clinton couldn’t decide on who she was or would be.
She morphed from tough to whiny to blaming the media, playing the race card, playing the gender card, turning teary-eyed — three times (hey, it worked the first time), cacking, screeching in speeches. She was all over the place.

The Queen of Hearts.. will deal with the Mad Hatters Turbin in good time..
Thing is, she has seriously damaged the Clinton brand the way she’s run her campaign, and she’s gotten easier to beat if she wins the nod. The members of the VRWC never liked her, of course, but now there is a Vast Left Wing Conspiracy that hates her guts too. That would cost her, big time. And I can see a lot of moderates and independents going for McCain before they go for her.
I consider myself to be somewhat compassionate. But it is all but impossible to feel sorry for Hillary.
It ain’t over until the last ashtray flies.
Anyone who believes that is a complete fool.
The Clinton crime and slime machine has not even gone into action yet.
The Clintons do al their fighting under cover and behind the scenes.
Anyone who is familiar with Hillary knows that she has planned, plotted, schemed, and whatever else she has had to do for this her entire life.
She is not going down without a fight.
By fight, I mean airplanes crashing, people committing suicide,dead pets being found on porches.
When these things begin happening, one can say that Hillary is getting serious.
That type of judgement could be catastrophic for this country. Not forseeing a threat to her campaign is one thing, but not recognizing terrorist threats and strategic vulnerabilities is entirely another. That said, Hillary's next step is probably being carefully crafted: undermine the next president in every way possible to position herself for another run.

It's all over but the crying for Hillary
It's All Over (Now) (midi 3:35) 'Cause I once was leading, but it's all over now He used to run around with every gal in town 'Cause I once was leading, But it's all over now (Instrumental Break) I used to wake in the morning, all alone in bed Well I once was leading, but it's all over now (repeat to fade)
INTRO: D, C, then G.
(Boogie Repeat x2) Billy use to stay out all night long
Sorry Hill all your (commie) plans are going up in smoke.
Made me cry, he done me wrong
But I was gonna be POTUS so all was fine
But the table's turned, and I'm gonna cry
'Cause I once was leading, but it's all over now
Spent all his time playin' his half-a** games
He put me out, it was a pity how I cried
But the table's turned, and I'm gonna cry
'Cause I once was leading, but it's all over now
When a Bimbo would erupt, I'd ease his aching head
But now Obama's here, gettin' every vote in town
I'm losing all my voters, to that newbie clown
Well I once was leading, but it's all over now
Well I once was leading, but it's all over now
Well I once was leading, but it's all over now

“...stungun and a net.” Great line.
Can’t wait to read the future book about Hillary’s campaign:
