Hillary "Blanche" Clinton - Depending on the Kindness of Racists and Karl Rove
It seems that each week, the moral bankruptcy of Clinton's campaign reaches new levels. She boasts about winning the votes of racists, as though these voters have more value than those who support Obama. She suggests that the Democratic party should appease racists by nominating a white candidate who can win their votes. Why does she assume that Obama might not win over some or many of these voters over the next 5 months?Now she has quoted Karl Rove's analysis that she would be the stronger candidate in November, as though Karl Rove should help select the Democratic nominee. And since when is the "strongest nominee" the sole qualification for representing the Democratic party?The lies from Clinton and her campaign continue to multiply. She claims to be the victim of sexism, and in the same interview has the gall to suggest that racism has played no part in this campaign, contrary to what is suggested by dozens of polls. She claims to be ahead in the popular vote, in spite of the fact she trails in any reasonable tally of same. She claims to continue her campaign in order to fight for blue collar workers, older women, whomever, as though Obama could not fight for these people (he has been doing so his entire adult life - comment, Hillary?)Clinton will continue her hopeless, narcissistic campaign until the superdelegates end the primary. She will say anything, no matter how untrue, to make yet one more delusional argument promoting her nomination. It is time, past time, for the superdelegates to end this embarrassment.

I can't believe this.
I was thinking about "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" this afternoon. I was trying to typify Blanche and Hillary.
Amazing.

Actually Blanche was in "A Streetcar Named Desire", but it was all in "Tennessee" (...Williams's head!).
