Duck and Cover



I have nothing to add to what Olbermann and Alter have to say here except to wonder how the hell the complete disintegration of Hillary's "resumé of experience" isn't the final nail in her campaign? The dissection gets really good after the 5:00 mark. Alter just goes down a list of substantive lies on everythin from SCHIP to Ireland. I mean, seriously. She made all this shit up. And in this case, visibly, got caught. On video. Twelve-year-old video. Yet the campaign lives on.

Stop complaining about media bias, Hillary. Anybody else would have been buried weeks ago.

Totally, dude. I now am at the point where I would question voting for her ever given the crazy judgement she's shown.

It makes you wonder if her status of long-annointed-overwhelming-favorite to be the nominee that she's enjoyed in the media for the last two years has made her go into complete denial.

It's over. Get lost and lets get to the business of winning this sumbitch.

So you'd vote for McCain over her? Because he's not crazy at all. Excellent judgment that guy's got.

Easy there captain jumpy.

That didn't mean that I'd vote for McCain. He's a crazy old fuck telling Iran to get off his lawn. But she definitely slots in behind her democratic contemporaries.

Sometimes the right call is to call it a day. That's definitely case here. Her inability or unwillingness to see that is a major strike against her judgement, IMO.

I'd still pull the lever for her over McCain. But as I did I'd be wondering when this bad judgement would rear its ugly head again. The longer she waits, the more batshit she appears.

Oh, I completely agree. But you said "I would question voting for her ever." I just wanted to make sure you weren't going off the reservation.
