Clinton Turns Gandhi On His Head

"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." - Mahatma Gandhi

Clinton ran the race backwards.

First she declared victory, then she decided to fight, then she was laughed at for her "new math", and now she's being ignored.

But perhaps if Superman could spin the earth backwards, reversing the space time continuum...

  Diary Guidelines:

  Diaries should be substantive. A good guideline is that if you don't have at least three solid paragraphs to write about your subject, you should probably post a comment in an open thread, or in a recent diary or front-page post that covers a topic relevant to what you wish to write about.

      •  I think it's a hilarious observation...

        And I've been thinking for some time that regarding commercial television, we should turn Timothy Leary on his head -- turn off, tune out, and drop in.

        (and I also don't think we should trust anyone over $30 million...)

        •  Turn off, tune out, drop in. Works for me!

          When I turned off the TV, dropped out buying the NYT, and dropped into DailyKos, my life changed for the better! A refreshing breeze of truth blew the nonsense away.

    •  But she apologized for it

      So she really didn't mean it, right?  It's not like she has a track record for insensitive comments...

  •  Beat me to it. Let's just say, I've questioned

    why people thought Hillary's most recent racial blowups were first time things.  In fact, I think Hillary gets an easier time of it because there's a black candidate so people assume everyone is being hypersensitive.
