  1. He's entitled -- based on his having been right about just about everything since midway through the 2000 campaign - to write about anything he wants. And blaming the writer because of what political fanbois write him is something we all laugh about in this site's primary context.
    By the way, here's the latest Hillary-Is-A-Man-Baby cheap shot. When someone photoshops Obama, say, tap-dancing, give me a call.

    Hillary can probably write off the insecure white male vote entirely.

    "Vote for Hillary... or prove what an insecure, white male you are."

    ... they should definitely start printing the bumper stickers.

    He is entitled, you're right. But much like Friedman before him, I think he's losing a lot of relevance.

    Friedman was a must-read when he was traveling the Middle East and reporting and making American foreign policy there a prominent issue. But after a few years of getting embarassingly spun in Washington and New York, I'm sorry, but not so much.

    Krugman was a must-read when he was dismantling Bush's economic policy. But if I want to read musings on Democratic primary politics, he should at least hop a plane and cover the election. If he wants to write about his email regarding the Democratic primary, I think I'd rather just read my own email and skip the middle man, you know?

    Is that something her campaign staff actually produced and not some fanboi looser?

    At the end of the ad: PAID FOR BY HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT

    That would have to be punched up considerably to be lame.

    Were I Obama, I'd pay to have that broadcast in sophisticated college towns in Ohio and Texas.

    Good gosh, that's beyond embarrassing. Is that why HRC canned her campaign manager?

    I could start a thread with all the youtube videos for this campaign, but this one made me laugh hard. It probably shouldn't have, but it did:

    People are apparently very more interested in John McCain's family than in his policies, and least that's what this BLOGS! article says.

    We have a system where an ex-president is calling superdelegates to gain support for his wife -- presumably based on past favors or future promised favors. Meanwhile, his wife is losing the race and will likely trail in pledged delegates when the electorate is finished voting. This ex-president doesn't see a problem with that tactic.

    God Bless America.
