The Ballot Box of Joshua Marshall

Joshua Marshall continues to bridge the divide caused by the emotional infantilism.

He shares a "most feared scenario" offered by a reader, which concludes with the same question heard over and over again: how can we get Candidate Hillary to go away?

She could start winning big time in this home stretch and make a convincing case the superdelegates.....

Hmmmmm.......   What to do??

I don't speak for Sen Clinton or her campaign, but I believe your candidate, his campaign and his supporters have brought it on yourselves.

Time and time again, he failed to seal the deal with the voters.

Now we have the Wright problem to worry about.

Day after day he continues to alienate core Clinton support, because short of attacking her character he has nothing left to run on.

It started long before Iowa but it rang the alarm bells with "You are likeable enough". And we are now starting to see it on full display.

We tried to spin it using the pledged delegate lead as the key metric. When ignoring the nomination rules didn't help dislodge the evil lady from NY, we tried the opposite, urging the utmost respect for the rules for the MI/FL issue. 

Now we have the latest idea: let's pressure the superdelegates to come out in droves for Sen. Obama, that will surely finish her off!

Let's go back to our premise: it would be better for Sen. Obama if Sen Clinton ended her campaign, effective immediately.

I have a suggestion: instead of trying to help Sen Obama by looking for ways to push Clinton out of the race, why don't you think if you are actually asking the right question.

Also, some thinking about emotional infantilism will go a long way.

And you could always check with John McCain about his answer to the famous question: "How do we kill the bitch?"

Short of all that, ricin could be an option.
