What 'Professionals' came up with that Plan? (Meyers)

Excerpt:

In an interview with the Huffington Post, Myers, author of "Why Woman Should Rule The World," offered sweeping explanations for why Clinton has stalled: Her candidacy was overwhelmed by concerns over dynastic politics; Clinton was forced to walk the difficult line between appearing powerful or domineering; the press has been unreasonably harsh. But the sharpest critiques were saved for the overall campaign strategy.

"They woke up after Super Tuesday and just didn't have a plan," said Meyers. "They didn't have a firewall between Feb 5 and March 4. There was no state where they said we were going to make sure we win: Maine, Wisconsin, wherever it may be... How is that possible? What group of professionals came up with that plan?"

Making matters worse, she added, there are few tactics or attacks that Clinton can initiate which will likely bring Obama down to earth.

"When I really realize this guy was impossible to run against," said Myers, "was when someone asked him how his victory felt. And he said: "Just like I told my kindergarten teacher it was going to feel. I was like 'Oh... Point. Set. Match.'"

With all these obstacles, Myers concluded, Clinton's campaign finds itself in a fragile place

1. Dee Dee Myers - sexist! Here's proof: "She has to thread such a small needle from here on out."
So Hillary should be sewing instead of running for president! How dare Dee Dee allude to something like that!


;)
