She is still blaming the “white” man...not very First Lady-like for Michelle “Jackie” Obama.

Would make sense if the advance staff were specialists in getting out the primary vote. Not needed with the primaries over.

If she continues, the skill set for her army will be more akin to the Sopranos.

Nice post - is there anything in life that can’t be illustrated by a quote from these movies? I think not.

Assuming the tape really exists, once the Obama people raise the issue that Michelle said "Why'd he" and not "Whitey," they will have effectively neutralized it as a campaign issue.

People will hear what they want to hear, and the mere fact that there is a question about what she actually said will be enough of a distraction that the tape itself will no longer have any impact.

"Shed...such an appropriate word...especially when talking about Frau Clinton, a woman who's been a snake for most of her adult life."

Your metaphor of The Evil One does a grave disservice to all snakes.

When I first saw that headline, I thought it read:

Clinton camp converging on New York Tuesday, and shredding stuff

I’m sure they weren’t getting paid anyway so why not?

These staffers really aren’t needed any more since there are only two small (population) states left.

Now it’s all about the Super Delegates.

Obama only needs a small % of them to wrap up the nomination.

Quote: “The advance staffers — most of them now in Puerto Rico, South Dakota, and Montana — are being given the options of going to New York for a final day Tuesday, or going home, the aides said. The move is a sign that the campaign is beginning to shed — at least — some of its staff. The advance staff is responsible for arranging the candidate’s events around the country. “

Well, why wouldn’t she shed advance staff if the primaries are about to be over? Anyone who thinks a Clinton will ever admit defeat or exit the scene gracefully has got another thing coming.

No guessing what the next move is - using the old network from the early years - Dixie mafia types, Chinese thugs, sleazy detectives.. Find a white supremacist group - infiltrate with a Clinton plant - help them plot an assassination - do the deed - have an escape route for the shooter - kill everyone involved except for the Clinton plant...

All before the convention...

She may “suspend” her campaign against Obama. After all, the primaries are over. Perhaps she will be very public in directly attacking John McCain. Behind the scenes, she will be working on exposing something big on Obama to be released just before the convention. She will also be threatening, intimidating, blackmailing, and bribing Superdelegates.

Why would she (or anyone) need purto rico staffers for the general election.

We had this same disussion during the Republican primary.

As one primary ends, you shed staffers.

Of course left leaning sites want to push the marxist obama so they can focus on attacking republicans so they HAVE to try and finish off hillary.

BTW folks, why is the candidate who has not chance in heck winning primaries?
