Democratic Emotionalism
Wolf Blitzer is a ridiculous man with all this nonsense about Hillary breaking up today in front of a New Hampshire audience. Could it be more oversold? I broke up worse yesterday at my little brother’s 30th birthday party talking about my first memories of holding him.
But, yeah: Hillary’s worried. Not a blubbering mess, but worried. She believes in her own destiny and it may or may not unfold for her as she has long wished. It’s potentially humiliating, no doubt. You’d have to willingly suspend your disbelief to think otherwise.
What’s vastly more ridiculous is this interview Wolf’s doing with Bill Bradley. It’s another chance to run the tape of Hillary “breaking up,” but Bradley really wants to talk about Obama in messianic terms that make me queasy. Obama reflects the light of those around him? He’s a bridge-builder and blah, blah, blah?
The Democratic Party is nuttier than a fattened squirrel on Viagra. Is it really possible that they’re so scared of Hillary that they’d hand the car keys over to Barry Obama? Suicidal lust and all that.
