Do we have to keep talking about this? I don’t mean Hillary winning big last night, or Obama losing, but the Democratic race. I mean, seriously, is this still going on? Do we have to keep talking about this? I’m ready to hear something else in the morning when I wake up besides Clinton Obama Obama Clinton Obama Obama Obama Clintion Clinton Obama.
Of course, while I’m getting woolly… uh, weary* over it, I wonder if maybe it’s not good for the Democrats in the long run. McCain is just a side show right now. No one cares about him, it’s all Democrat all the time on the national scene. Blame it whatever conspiracy theroy you want, but it’s true.
From a different angle, I watched Obama’s speech in San Antonio last night, and I wonder, or worry, if this was the pin-prick moment and all the air is about to come out of his balloon. One of the most appropriate bumper stickers I saw between the 2004 Iowa caucus and the November election said, “Dated Dean. Married Kerry.” I wonder if in four months we will see some similar stickers that fill in the names of this year’s rock star and establishment candidates, respectively. I sure hope not.
*Name that movie reference.

Ehh, too early to tell. He’s still in the lead, still has establishment backing, and still has more money. Don’t jump off the cliff just yet.

Bull Durham.
And I hate to admit it, but I said the same thing yesterday. I couldn’t confidently predict that the O-man would win Texas, and certainly not both states, after he seemed to climax about a two weeks ago. Whenever he gets strong, people start to feel for Hillary, and stop being adventurous with the rockstar candidate. I’m a little shocked that Hillary won Ohio so easily, but really not surprised that she’s still runnin’ strong.
