Full disclosure: I support Obama as a first choice, Edwards second, and Hillary third.
Naturally, given my preferences, it’s uncomfortable to see the Clintons out there (Bill especially) playing attack dogs using made up facts, twisted words, and other typical underhanded ploys. When it’s aimed at MY candidate of choice, it’s especially infuriating.
However, the chips seem to be falling in Hillary’s favor. Obama, though he may still pull off a win, is looking like an underdog at this point. I find myself contemplating a general election with Hillary against a McCain, say.
I think of Bill out there raging around and wagging his finger, going after Republicans. It has a certain amount of appeal.
Of course, I’d rather see the policies and the leadership of an Obama or an Edwards. I’d rather not be mired in the whirling political Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton muck any longer and move forward.
But it seems, I may not have that choice. I must be already starting to accept the possibility of Hillary as the nominee, because I’m looking forward to the fireworks.
She may not be my first choice, but at least it’s going to be a louder, angrier, knock around fight than we’d get otherwise.
So, go home Bill. Stop the lies and distortions. But, if Hillary wins . . . GIVE ‘EM HELL!
