I think its the Clintons new strategy.
Click here
But I think it's time to pivot to McCain, because I guarantee you that he (and the RNC) have already made that transition...we do not need to miss the very real vulnerabilities he is exhibiting because we are so busy kicking a dead horse.
There are also other videos that show Hillary "plagarising", it is so sad.
Did any of you catch our friend Tavis Smiley trying to make Barack Obama look bad on CNN for not going to the SOTBU. They are digging up every black Clinton supporter to "confirm" that Obama doesnt care about the black community.
How f***ing ridiculous is it that millions of Independents in California are disqualified due to a ballot that was deliberately designed to reject their votes?
And even worse, in New York-- Obama with zero votes? IN HARLEM?
Kudos to the NYT for at least raising the NY disenfranchisement scandal, but otherwise the media have been reprehensibly silent about this. As my old professor has said,
The Hillary Clinton campaign has thus perpetrated the most sweeping, severe and damaging act of voter disenfranchisement and fraud in the history of American politics.
And yet it's all but ignored. IN A SUPPOSED "DEMOCRACY."
It's pissing off so many people, I'm honestly getting nervous for the country's viability over the next few months.
A slew of old college classmates talking about revolution, about Jefferson's exhortation to "water the tree of liberty with the blood of tyrants" and so forth.
One of my grad-student friends, bookish and sweet, talking about "having the Molotov cocktails ready if Obama is cheated out of this and we are disenfranchised."
Riots and general strikes would be the least of it.
I don't understand how the media just doesn't get this-- the whole point of democracy and elections is to allow people to express their voice in choosing leaders and have that voice counted. If the campaign process is thwarted with such fraud, and if people's votes are tossed aside, you get-- well, the kinds of ugly scenes we get in Kenya and Pakistan.
And if this s**t continues, much as it pains me to say it, that nastiness will be coming to a city near you and me.

Most people are living their daily routine and they don't remember she is copying John Edwards and her husbands old bits......most probably don't even get the connection.
Keep in mind that probably most of us on this venue follow the news in a way that most Americans do not. The majority hear a sound bite that sounds good and with their limited time of working, raising families,and just keeping their head above water....the last thing they hear which sounds good to them, sticks.
That is the reality for too many people in this country.
They might see the sound bite on tv or hear it on the radio.....
Don't discount what Hillary did last night.
He is supposed to be savvy about politics and the political gaming acts...! If he can get taken in, forget about the every day joe and jane trying to be objective.
Tavis is still clowning, and will continue to be marginalized. Black folk told him - STFU and be on your way and leave Obama alone to do his thing.
Why am I not surprised that this turned up on CNN?
Hardball is one of the key shows for MSNBC, and Chris Matthews gets suckered in by any and all pols and their soaring rhetoric, from Obama to Clinton to GWB. He loves politicians and has a creepy fascination with politics in general.
(That's a joke.)
If you don't want to make calls or go canvassing, there is a lot of office work that needs to get done (tallying the calls, getting maps together, getting mailers together). I spent several hours at the Obama office yesterday (instead of reading annoying pro-Clinton comments on my otherwise favorite blogs (Shakesville!)) and it was so great to be focusing on something productive instead of just scouring the news for some sign of what's to come!
Just to be clear, blogging is absolutely important, and I love this blog.
