Dowd: Haunting Obama’s Dreams

[RamboLiberal]

It is a tribute to Hillary Clinton that even though, rationally, political soothsayers think she can no longer win, irrationally, they wonder how she will pull it off.

It’s impossible to imagine The Terminator, as a former aide calls her, giving up. Unless every circuit is out, she’ll regenerate enough to claw her way out of the grave, crawl through the Rezko Memorial Lawn and up Obama’s wall, hurl her torso into the house and brutally haunt his dreams.

“It’s like one of those movies where you think you know the end, but then you watch with your fingers over your eyes,” said one leading Democrat.

Hillary got a boost from the wackadoodle Jeremiah Wright. As a top pol noted, the Reverend turned Obama — in the minds of some working-class and crossover white voters — from “a Harvard law graduate into a South Side Black Panther.”

1. Like her or not, Dowd deserves a Purple Prose award.

Those first four paragraphs, especially the second one, should go right into the Classics category. I can hear long-dead journalism professors moaning, moaning, from their musty crypts..... :shrug:

2. The last four paragraphs are enlightening, too.

Al Gore blames Bill Clinton’s trysts with Monica for losing him the White House. He resented sharing the vice presidency with Hillary and sharing the donors and attention with her when she ran for Senate as he ran for president.

“There’s no love between him and Hillary,” said one former Clintonista. “It was like Mitterrand with his wife and girlfriend. They were always competing for the affection of the big guy.”

Like Carter and Gore, Nancy Pelosi was appalled by Bill’s escapades with Monica. And, as The Times’s Carl Hulse wrote, the Speaker has been viewed as “putting her thumb on the scale for Mr. Obama” in recent weeks. As a leading China basher, the San Francisco pol tangled bitterly with President Clinton over his pursuit of a free-trade agreement with China, once charging him with papering over China’s horrible record on human rights. And she has been put off by the abrasive ways of some top Hillary people.

If Hillary’s fate falls into the hands of Jimmy, Al and Nancy, the Clinton chickens may come home to roost.

3. Oh this is typical Whoreen Hillary bashing!

It's a shame that the far more eloquent words of Gene Kelly's widow failed to sink into even a a single brain cell in Whoreen's head. As usual, she goes back to her standard Hillary bashing with the usual Clenis obsessions. This is just more of the same recycled dog poop that this liar cranks out on a regular basis.

5. Give it a rest, Mo

Why has DEM bashing has become your style these past several years? Can't get enough of those Republicans?

She paints both DEM candidates as too incompetent to run for the office. I really don't like her style at all. If you can call it that.
