Anon 1:10,
That doesn’t concern me. I seriously doubt I’m going to see many of my people going on lynching parties just ’cause Obama’s in the White House.

Who are “my people”?

If Barack does go to Iraq I hope he brings every last one of our troops home with him. Bring our troops home.

I would love to see Rachel M. take MTP.

That’s me.

And Obama can shovel dirt, he’s got time to go to Iraq;

Hell, he should go out on patrol there.

think positive thoughts.

And he said IF HE HAS TIME.

I say, he should have no time.

I think she will be back at Stanford eventually returning to her role as Provost or lobbying for her dream job as NFL commissioner.

Hillary’s Martyrdom Isn’t All It’s Cracked Up To Be

I’m all for counterintuitive articles, and John Heilemann’s big New York story making the case that Hillary has emerged from her defeat a “more resonant, consequential, and potent figure than she has ever been before” is a good one. But I’d like to take exception to one point Heilemann makes. He writes:

It was only after Bill Clinton’s impeachment ordeal that he became a beloved figure on the traditional left, which had long regarded him warily before his persecution by the special prosecutor and the congressional Republicans. WJC, in other words, was fortunate in his enemies. Now HRC finds herself similarly blessed; in Chris Matthews she appears to have found her own version of Ken Starr. It’s been said before, but it bears repeating once again. Whatever else one thinks about the Clintons, there’s no denying that martyrdom has been very, very good to them.

This is true up to a point, but Hillary’s martyrdom differs from Bill’s in one key detail: he survived impeachment; she didn’t survive the Democratic primary. Heilemann makes it clear that Hillary still wants to be president, but it’s really hard to see how she’ll ever accomplish that. If Obama wins, she won’t be able to run until 2016, when she’ll be 69 and as fresh as Hubert Humphrey was in 1968. And if Obama loses, a decent segment of black and activist liberal voters will probably hold Hillary at least partly responsible for his defeat, no matter how hard (and how disingenuously) she campaigns for him this fall. And as Hillary learned in ’08, you can’t win a Democratic primary without those voters. In other words, Hillary’s martyrdom might have made her more resonant, consequential, and potent, but I don’t think it’s made her more presidential.

But speaking of Iraq…..anyone know where else Obama’s supposed overseas trip is taking him besides the UK? Seems to me, to quell the fires, he’d go to Iraq first…..

d., the links work for me. Basically the writer is saying neocons are afraid black folks are going to remember how bad they were treated by white folks and seek some kind of revenge if Obama is President. You may not be copying the whole link that is why you may not be able to get it to work for you.

Mine collapse in Pennsylvania.

This will be another way to imprint the idea “Obama is young and energetic; fit for the office”; McCain is too old and not up to the task.

Of course, McCain cannot lift shovels of dirt because of the injuries he was subjected to during his captivity in North Vietnam.

That will not be told.
