The annointing of Hillary Clinton has been problematic for me because, though we are told she is the front runner, I have yet find one person who actually supports Hillary Clinton, and I work in an English Department at a large public university among feminists, marxists, lesbians and other fellow travellers, and even among my self described mainstream Democrats, I still can't find one Hillary supporter, and yet, she is the front runner. Seems a bit odd...
Anyone care to hazard a guess?
Guesses:
ReplyDelete1) Name recognition.
2) It's too far from the election for the "electorate" to "pay attention."
The closer a state's primary is, the tighter the race, generally. Right now, everyone except for Edwards, Obama, and Clinton are running for veep.
(Except for Biden, who hopes to be Secretary of State. And I hope he gets it -- he'd actually be a good one, in my mind.)
Biden actually has a rational solution as to what the hell to do in Iraq...
ReplyDeleteIt seems that the leaders of the Democratic party bought into "anybody but Bush" again. We should know by now that no matter what the GOP runs as a candidate, it will take more than a warm body to beat him.
