   She will either be shooting blanks, or suffer misfires.

3. Hillary does understand that the attacks on Obama’s lack of Foreign Policy and Security experience apply to her as well.

4. Thankfully, as HRC is likely to learn, these days just about all kitchen sinks come with garbage disposals.

5. What a campaign. Sort of a how-to manual on how not to win.

6. To paraphrase a great moment in “Apocalypse Now”:
   I love the smell of Democrats self-destructing in the … (well, just about anytime).

7. I shouldn’t admit this, but I kind of feel sorry for her. Then I pull myself together and realize that the Clintons will destroy any force in their path. They probably have an order in now for a couple of voodoo dolls.

9. Mr. Obama’s campaign manager, David Plouffe, said that the Clinton campaign had “engaged in the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we’ve seen from either party.”

   A line straight out of the Clinton’s 1992 play book. Obama is beating the Clintons at their own game.

10. My favorite part of this election? The Clintons acting like Clintons and people acting all surprised.
    Why, people are even saying she’ll drop out gracefully. That’s just funny.

    If there’s any chance at all, any slimmest chance in the world, that she could win the nomination by getting some extra superdelegates, count on her doing just that.

    They care not for the Democratic party only insofar as it gets them power.

11. Veeshir…
    “…slimmist chance…”
    Now, that’s funny! Nice pun.

12. H-Rod is also suffering from her campaign’s disdain for the little people, as told by a college journalism professor: (H/t to Romenesko)

    . . .(T)he Obama campaign treated us like pros — they called us back within minutes, set up interviews, got us press passes, went out of their way to make the campaign accessible. The Clinton campaign, in contrast, didn’t return a single phone call, didn’t provide press access, and did virtually nothing to encourage our coverage. It was either arrogance or disorganization on the Clinton campaign’s part. . .

    Here’s a comment from one of my students, Jennifer Ware:

    I noticed a difference between Obama and Clinton when I first started calling their campaigns in the week before the caucuses. At that point Washington state seemed like an afterthought for the Clinton campaign. Hillary wasn’t anywhere to be found in Seattle, but Obama had a campaign office in the heart of Pioneer Square. He had for months, and everyone there seemed more than happy to help.

    When I called the Clinton campaign to ask for a contact at their Washington state campaign office, one staffer tried to tell me that Washington was where their campaign headquarters is. “Yes” she said, “Washington, it’s right next to Virginia.” . . .

13. #12 Reminds me of joke a friend use to tell who had a very low opinion of is son’s California public school education. He claimed to have received a call from his son, who was attending college, that he had joined a “March on Washington.” The son called his dad to let him know that he was planning to arrive in Seattle the next day.

14. The Clinton campaigns little weenie sounding pop merengue-esque “Clinton es nuestra candidata” campaign song in a pathetic squeak next to “Viva Obama”. I bet he crushes her in the Hispanic vote.

    I looked on the Google but couldn’t find any cool Mariachi bands singing about John McCain. He better get to work!

15. Compairing HRC to a shrill harpy is very insulting to shrill harpys.
