hillary wins PA! poor white people celebrate defeat of muslim half-breed.

jesus. if persistence, phony gladhanding, and an annoying pta-mom-esque reprimanding style of rhetoric can end the war and fix the economy, maybe i've been completely wrong in supporting this dude obama.

most people knew she'd win. that wasn't the question. the question was whether or not she could even get enough votes to stick around, and she did.

from reuters:
"I think the numbers and margin -- combined with the spin -- will leave superdelegates wondering why can't this guy just beat her." he said. "As long as they are thinking that, she gets a little time."

the fucking spin? THE SPIN? has everybody running the show in the democrat party spent so much time being bombarded by advertisements and shitty corporate pr their entire lives that they're susceptible to SPIN? or are they just so cynical about this entire process that they'd rather send the media-declared winner than the better politician? this worries the hell out of me. the clintons are the masters of spin. they'll use it to their advantage, for sure, despite the fact that obama's eventual performance topped initial opinion polls. (citation needed. deal with it.)

if howard dean and his dnc buddies actually stumbled upon this blog, i'd like them to consder an idea i have. let's ignore the spin for ONE FUCKING SECOND, and acknowledge the plain and simple truth. hillary clinton's campaign is one based on negativity, and she's dragging obama down into it. her campaign is based predominantly on heavily embellished political experience and bush-esque fear tactics.

we've already had eight long, terrible years of a highly divisive, disingenuous political insider riding on a relative's coattails, falsely claiming folksy populism, and violently smearing anyone who crosses their path. the last thing we need is more.
