I can almost hear the fat lady tuning up in the wings, and I can almost, ALMOST feel a bit of sympathy for HRC. ALMOST, but not quite.
She has used her position as First Lady to try and fool American voters into believing she actually has the experience and knowledge to run the country. But, she under-estimated the intelligence of those she is trying to dupe.
We aren't all un-educated, low income, factory workers, but if I was, I would take issue with her likening me to a dumb ass who can't think for myself. I would be insulted and she would be that last candidate I would vote for.
Just because a person isn't a Rhodes Scholar, a millionaire, or an entrepreneur does not mean they are ignorant ,stupid sheep that can be led to the slaughter, or in HRC's case, the voting booth.
The very fact that she has pinned her hopes of winning the nomination on those her camp terms as uneducated, working poor really angers me. But, even more so is the fact that those very people are the ones who are actually considering voting for her.
Hello people, does NAFTA ring a bell with ANY of you? Factory workers in Ohio, steel workers in PA? Before Bill and Nafta, you had bright futures, secure, rosy, happy. After NAFTA, what happened? How many of you lost your jobs? Your homes? Your life savings? Your children's college tuition?
Do you really believe her when she says, and my God, even says it with a straight face, "I was completely against NAFTA from the very start." Oh really? So why then didn't she put a bug in Bill's ear about how bad she thought it would be for her future Presidency?
They didn't talk about it, you say? Of course they did. She's his wife, and you know as well as I do that she was privy to all of his, oh, well ALMOST all of his thoughts and ideas, especially those that could ultimately one day effect her own campaign.
No NAFTA is as much on her head as it is Bill's and come on folks do we really need round three of the Clinton White House, which will ultimately lead us to round three of the Bush White House?
New blood, new ideas and for Pete's sake, a new name.
Obama fits.
