Sometimes I mistake the Clinton Campaign for the Iraq War

[Political Heretic]

War on Iraq -- Plan for war based on inaccurate / distorted information about conditions in Iraq
Clinton Campaign - Plan of action based on inaccurate / distorted information about conditions of the campaign

War on Iraq -- Declared "Mission Accomplished" prematurely.
Clinton Campaign - Declared nomination certainty prematurely.

War on Iraq -- Failed to anticipate serious opposition. "We will be greeted as liberators."
Clinton Campaign -- Failed to anticipate serious opposition. "I will be greeted as the presumptive nominee."

War on Iraq - Had no contingency plan for a lengthy occupation
Clinton Campaign - Had no contingency plan for a lengthy campaign

War on Iraq -- Failed to bring enough military resources to support the ongoing battle
Clinton Campaign -- Failed to bring enough financial resources to support the ongoing battle

War on Iraq - Puts the country in deeper and deeper debt to continue the fight
Clinton Campaign - Puts campaign in deeper and deeper debt to continue the fight

War on Iraq - constantly changing definitions of "victory"
Clinton Campaign - constantly changing definitions of "victory"

War on Iraq - rationale for war: from WMDs, to WMDs related programs, to Liberating Iraqis, to removing brutal dictator, to protecting Iraqi assetts from terrorists
Clinton Campaign - rationale for being the nominee: from pledged delegates, to popular vote, to winning "big states" to winning more "Primaries" to "electability"

War on Iraq - despite all rational evidence and pleas of political leaders to stand down, Bush vows to "stay the course"
Clinton Campaign - despite all rational evidence and pleas of political leaders to stand down, Clinton vows to "stay the course."

Electing Hillary - is just more of the same. This post illustrates that by electing Hillary we would just be getting more of the same we've had for the last 7+ years.

I'm sorry Hillary supporters - but - why can't you see that?

Thanks for the post - Political Heretic

6. I'd add one to that great list:

War on Iraq - accuse detractors of hating America and soldiers
Clinton Campaign - accuse detractors of hating Hillary and women

Great post. Thanks. The victory conditions point is my favorite. This electoral vote comparison has got to be the dumbest of all.
