Poll question: Gradations of Hillary Campaign Meltdown
In response to the last poll, IF Hillary's Campaign (and that is a big if)
is in Melt-down mode, what level of campaign melt-down are we talking about here?

1 Ed Muskie Likability Tears



2 Kirk Watson on MSNBC / My Pet Goat Deer-in-Headlights



3 Nixon Departure / Enron Frog-march



4 Court Drama TV Finale Melt-down


"I DID IT! And I would have gotten away with it, if it hadn't been for those kids!"

5 HAL Personality Meltdown


"Stop it, Barack. My Campaign is going."

5 Britney Personality Melt-down



6 Chernobyl Meltdown



8 T-1000 Meltdown



9 Global Thermo-Nuclear Warfare



10 Gene Wilder Acting Performance Cataclysmic Melt-down



"MY NAME IST HILLARY VON **RODHAM** CLINTON-STEIN!!!!!!"



There's no earthly way of knowing
Which direction we are going.....
There's no knowing where we're rowing...
Or which way the river's flowing...
Is it raining?! Is it snowing?!
Is a hurricane a-blowing?
Not a speck of light is showing
so the danger must be growing.

Are the fires of hell a glowing?
IS THE GRISLY REAPER MOWING?!?!?

YES!!!!! The danger MUST be growing
For the voters... keep on VOTING!!!
And they're CERTAINLY not showing
ANY SIGNS... THAT THEY ARE SLOWING! (screams)

"Stop the campaign, daddy! I want out!"

8. I voted for Hal just because I think that would be worse than Gene Wilder
A self aware space ship that has developed a split personality and wants everyone dead beats the hell out of Willie Wonka IMO.

10. Hillary's campaign has just gone down the garbage chute...
Edited on Sun Feb-24-08 12:41 PM by Leopolds Ghost
...and she will meet as she descends, a rather different set of friends...

a fish head for example, cut

in Kenya from a halibut.

an oyster from a NAFTA stew,

a steak that no chinese could chew!

17. Okay, no more gloating from me.
After all, Obama's probably ONLY doing so well because most folks
see him running to Hillary's right.

At least, if you believe the media...

Why do I dislike the Clintons so? Consider this: thanks to the first
Clinton administration, TV has redefined opposition to free trade
as a conservative issue -- thus making Hillary, because she is supposedly
more conservative than Barack, the candidate of the Working Class!!

Soon the Democratic Party coalition will be as screwed up as it was
during the Gilded Age, thanks to the DLC.

18. Other:
What her meltdown reminds of is the 1985 St Louis Cardinals: They were heavily favoured to beat KC in the world series. In the final game after KC took a big lead, they had the most spectacular meltdown I've every seen.
