Is it just me, or does Hillary Clinton's strategy of basically just saying the same old shit she was saying yesterday, regardless of the little incident of Barack Obama, y'know, winning the Democratic nomination as a way of pressuring him to put her on the ticket, like, a horrible idea? I don't know Sen. Obama personally, but I'd presume that he doesn't like being blackmailed, and she's not exactly showing that she's a team player here. And isn't Vice President a team player type of position?
The speech was shameful, and Clinton seems intent on proving critics like Andrew Sullivan correct. Maybe she lacks self-awareness (you think?) but something this ham-fisted is repellent. I don't think she gets it. She has to show loyalty to him to get a job that's all loyalty. Obama has no reason to trust her, and considering what she's said today, he's got every reason to actively distrust her.
Go to bed, please, senator!
