Clintons Continue Down the Low Road

Bill Clinton, today:

It'd be a great thing if we had an election where you had two people who love this country, who were devoted to the interest of the country and people could actually ask themselves who is right on these issues instead of all this other stuff which always seems to intrude on our politics.

The philandering ex-president was talking about a potential fall match up between his wife and John McCain. So, is he implying that Barack Obama doesn't love this country? What is it with the Clintons lately building up John McCain? It's this type of egotistical sense of entitlement that will swing the super delegates over to Obama. They even found time to tear down Gov. Bill Richardson's endorsement of Barack Obama today, saying that at this point in the race it didn't mean anything. I'm sure they would have felt differently if the endorsement had been for Sen. Clinton. I'm sure Bill is pissed, thinking to think I went down there and watched the Super Bowl with that guy!

Appropriate to this democratic infighting is Tim Egan's op-ed piece in today's New York Times. He likens the Democratic candidates' journey to the convention in Denver to the tragic Donner Party of 1846. They haven't quite resorted to cannibalism yet, but August is a ways off. Here is the link to the Egan piece.

Meanwhile, we have McSame acting like a doddering old fool on his "fact finding" mission to the middle east, confusing Shia and Sunni and calling the Jewish holiday Purim their version of Halloween. Luckily, he has turncoat Joe Lieberman along to whisper sweet nothings into his ear.
