Between Barack and a Hard Place

When is a win a loss?  Well, when you’re Hillary Clinton, or any Clinton for that matter a loss is a win.  Barack Obama met that magical number last night and has been crowned the presuptive nominee of the Democratic Party.  Didn’t seem like Mrs. Clinton was ready to concede that point last night.  Instead of the night being about the historic nomination of an African-American for a party’s presidential candidate, we were subjected to a display of narcissism unseen since the first time man peered into a puddle of water and had the realization that he/she was gazing at a reflection of themself.

Puh-lease! It is over and now all that Clinton can think about is how to leverage the current situation into either the Vice Presidency or another high-profile position.  One of Clinton’s top supporters has started a petition drive in an effort to force Obama’s hand in choosing running mate.  The laughable part of this effort is that the supporter, Lanny Davis, swears that this effort has not been coordinated with the Clinton campaign.  Here.

Gentlemen, Start Your Engines!

Since Tuesday, the media focus has shifted from the Democratic Primary to the general election and the folks have settled on the McCain vs Obama race.  Rumor has it that Bill & Hillary are scoping out condos in Toronto in anticipation of a Hillary run for Canadian Prime Minister.  As you’d expect, Clinton sycophant Paul Begala is currently taking a tutorial on Canadian election law to find Clinton size loopholes in the residency requirements.  As we’ve learned, rules and laws don’t always apply to the Clintons and I doubt this fact will change in The Great White North either.

The old saying goes “It ain’t over ’til the Fat Lady sings.”  Well, this Democratic Primary won’t officially be over ’til the Hirsute Woman gets paid apparently.  Reporting in recent days suggests that the Hillary folks are working behind the scenes to get Hillary’s campaign debts paid-off by the DNC and/or Obama.  Note that the debt consists of a couple personal loans Hillary made to herself, I can’t imagine what kind of interest she charged herself.  Back to reality.

My first take on the McCain vs Obama match-up is hopeful and exciting.  The campaigns are supposedly working on combined forums for the two candidates.  These forums would not be debates, but rather would done in the town-hall meeting style with both candidates having a conversation with voters.  When I read this, my heart swelled with pride and a noticeable tear formed on the rim of my lower left eyelid of this PolitiPornster.  This would be CHANGE my fellow PolitiPornsters.  As you know, this country and voters from both parties have a raging hard-on for change this election cycle.  However, PolitiPorn would like to put forth another idea.  This idea would signal a huge change for voters and the direction of this country.  It could potentially usher in a new era in politics.

Potomac Primaries – Another 9/11?

As we are all aware, the voting in the Maryland primary was extended by an hour and a half due to bad weather & traffic.  How bad was the traffic?  According to Shepard Smith of FOX News, the traffic was comparable to the gridlock Washingtonians experienced on 9/11/2001.  Never mind that the traffic of 9/11 was tinged with the fear for one’s own life. 

You’ve read that correctly.  FOX has now invoked 9/11 in a traffic report!  What next a 9/11 cooking segment with Giada DeLaurentiis?  Or perhaps a 9/11 fashion makeover with the guys from Queer Eye?  In short order I’m sure that Bill O’Reilly will be offering a 9/11 loofa to all female premium members over at his www.billoreilly.com website.
