I used to kind of respect Hillary until I found out the following:
1) She's pretty much a Republican
I don't think so. Just because she's less stridently anti-war than Obama, doesn't mean she's a Republican. She doesn't have any problem justifying higher taxes, larger government, and increased regulations.
Sure, the Republicans aren't that different, but they're acting in opposition to their stated principles... not making it a selling point.

The crazy pastor thing doesn't seem to be making any permanent dent in Obama's support among Democrats. After some initial damage (polls showing him even with Clinton a couple weeks ago), his support among Democrats seems to be bouncing back and even growing. Two recent polls (here and here) show him with a 10 point lead over Clinton in polls of Democratic voters. Maybe the speech helped.

"It is time for his campaign to get out of the gutter and allow all the pins to be counted".
Yeah. April Fool's day and a dig at the Obama camp to "get out of the gutter". (Yeah, I know, Bowling metaphor). As far as I can tell Clinton's the one spending most of her time in the gutter.
And because it's April Fool's she gets way with it, doesn't she?

Hillary only bowled a 120 but was under sniper fire at the time.

Well, come on Knut, a leopard can't change it's spots - Hillary is still a scumbag of a human, but I give it a thumbs up for being kind of funny. She seems so grim and evil, but it's nice to know she's got a sense of humor, even if it's mean-spirited...

Today Clinton also compared herself to Rocky Balboa, saying "When it comes to finishing the fight, Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit."
I wonder if she remembers that Rocky lost the fight in the first movie? That makes it a particularly apt metaphor, though not in the way she intended.

Ha ha...
I just saw a screaming news headline from the corporate media about how she's ahead in 4 states! But there's ten states left to vote - that means she's behind in 6 states.
I may've been a history major and not too savvy on this tricky new math, but... uh...
