Today Hillary blurted out the truth about the only way she is going to be president: if Barack goes down. Of course she says she didn't mean anything, excepting that candidates have taken campaigns on into June before. But the pattern emerging is that both Clintons are following their own ruthless...

Sexism Did Hillary In? Was I Sexist? Did I Even Mention Sex?
The latest up the flagpole is that Hillary lost because of sexism. Geraldine Ferraro said that Obama was extremely sexist. Was he a sexist pig? No, I don't think so. I think they are merely grasping at straws. Now, my friend here at school got me going this morning. She challenged me on my... Sign in to see full entry.

Hillary Clinton -- Independent Candidate, Part 2
Barack spoke to a crowd of seventy-five thousand people on Sunday in Oregon, while Hillary sat in a Christian Church in Bowling Green listening to a sermon about infidelity entitled "When the Devil is Whispering Over Your Shoulder". There are two vivid pictures for you. The throng for Obama was in a... Sign in to see full entry.
Hillary Clinton -- Independent Candidate
The new Ross Perot, Hillary Clinton, will go for the three-way split that put her husband in office in 1992. She now has the majority of working class voters, and with women, she is over the top. Do you count her out? Not me. Don't forget where you heard it first. Sign in to see full entry.

Venetian Nails
I am sitting under the heat lamps at the mall, drying my toenails. This place is a luxury for me. For the first time in my entire life -- I don't know what caused it -- I asked to have my tonails painted after my pedicure/manicure weekend splurge. I asked for off-white, she painted them black. It... Sign in to see full entry.

What A Good Week For Obama: Landslide Defeat and All!
Tuesday's W. Va. Election victory for Clinton had to have left her feeling fairly hollow. Within forty-eight hours Edwards brought a dozen delegates on board as well as NARAL, the reproductive rights group, and the AFL-CIO union.. And now he's in it up to his lapelpin with Bush/McCain over foreign... Sign in to see full entry.

Clinton Backlash Looms Large in General
Yesterday, the racial vote spoke loud and clear, echoing a Southern sentiment copied and pasted on my 3,000 Famous Last Words blog as Quote of the Day; "...vote Hillary, at least she's white..." It is sad when middle schoolers are so insulted as perhaps being ugly, but a last resort. "...At least... Sign in to see full entry.

MLK, Jr. "This Would Be a Good Time to Kill Him"
I said to my older brother last night, "what I never even stop to think about is the significance of this election. It puts 'the dream' right back on the front pages". He proceeded to regail us all of the moment that he saw Martin Luther King being taken off the plane and escorted to jail. He was... Sign in to see full entry.

The Clinton Cmpaign's All Out Race War
I've been reading all morning about the "softer tone", the "kinder, gentler" campaign that Hillary has agreed to pursue for the final few primaries. Huh-uh. She has her "much wider base" comment about how "white people vote for me". She told USA Today that white people were abandonng the Obama... Sign in to see full entry.
