Orwellian

Bill Clinton goes on at length with the notion that Obama would be a great Vice Presidential candidate with his wife running point as President. Apparently Bill hasn't talked with Hillary.
She claims Obama is not qualified to be President, at least not on Day One. If he is VP then she better hope she doesn't die on inauguration day.

The Clinton's keep saying things that are ridiculous. I wonder if they ascribe to the Rovian point of view that the public are stupid and if you keep repeating an untruth frequently enough it will ultimately pass as gospel?

Obama has finally hit back on this point. Reading his autobiography, I have no doubt that that he can hit back. I also have a compelling sense that he truly does represent something new on the American political landscape. In fact, he embodies all that comprises what makes this country great.

Meanwhile, the Clinton camp stoops to new lows every day. Now, we hear that they are beginning subtle messaging that "committed" delegates aren't really committed but can change their vote. Although I find Christopher Hitchens a lout, he was pungent in this recent remarks, reported in last Saturday's Noonan column in the Wall Street Journal. He believes Hillary will win the nomination because her maniacal pursuit of power and money will allow nothing to stand in her way.

It is Orwellian. Obama is not qualified for President. Obama is qualified for Vice President. Clinton wins the big states. Clinton is the come-back kid.

Just do the math. Obama is ahead by 100 delegates. She can't win.

POSTSCRIPT: During the day on Monday, Howard Wolfson, hapless Clinton mouthpiece, indicated that Obama could be ready for the Vice-Presidency in August, at the time of the convention. It must have been a slight slip of the tongue. I wonder how they will spin it today. If he is ready at convention time for the VP slot, one presumes he is ready to be President. Good work Howie!
