Catching Up

So, I was planning to write a recap of round 1 but the sad reality of these playoffs is that they have been a series of disappointing series. The Celtics need seven games to dismiss the lowly Hawks? Game one between Phoenix and San Antonio was a legitimate classic, but Nash dribbled the Suns best chance to win away in regulation and they never seriously challenged again. The Spurs in five? C’mon, nobody had that. It may be better for everyone involved if we just move on to round 2.

The other plan was to write a preview of today’s tilts in North Carolina and Indiana, but between the recent reappearance of Jeremiah Wright, the Clinton campaign’s channeling of Karl Rove, and the candidate herself threatening nuclear options in both Denver and Tehran, I frankly don’t have the stomach for it. We are headed for the disaster that will be the “Dream Ticket”.

And make no mistake—a disaster is exactly what it will be. She doesn’t deserve the presidency and simply cannot be trusted as VP, and if he agrees to the VP slot while still holding the delegate lead it will be both a defeat and a slap in the face to every single Obama supporter in this country. Not to mention the fact that it will confirm Hillary’s case that he just isn’t ready.

The “two great candidates” argument is fiction. The Dems have one decent candidate in Obama. It is long past time to end this.
