Hillary Clinton, the Woman of the Common Folk, on the working class:
"Screw 'em...You don't owe them a thing, Bill. They're doing nothing for you; you don't have to do anything for them."
It's like the nineties all over again, because that is what she's trying to do now...
Elitist indeed...

Pelosi on Question of Superdelegates
Nancy Pelosi knows it will be a very bad thing if superdelegates tip the nomination in favor of Clinton, and she's not mincing her words.
"I said it would be harmful to the Democratic Party and our prospects in November if the perception is that the superdelegates overturned the votes of the people, and I believe that," Pelosi says. "And I said it when Sen. Clinton was ahead and now the perception is that Sen. Obama is ahead."
She makes it pretty clear where she stands on the Clinton campaign's machinations too :
In a recent letter, major Democratic donors and Clinton supporters pressured Pelosi to change her position that the superdelegates should back the candidate with the most delegates.
"I said this when Sen. Clinton was ahead, too," Pelosi says. "I don't remember receiving a letter from them at that time," Pelosi says. "But let me be as clear as I can be: That letter is unimportant."

NYT endorses Clinton and McCain
This isn't exactly earth-shattering news, but I love the way they drill Giulliani who, despite campaigning obsessively in Fla, is now a distant third in the polls. Check this out from the Times Editorial Board. Ouch.
Why, as a New York-based paper, are we not backing Rudolph Giuliani? Why not choose the man we endorsed for re-election in 1997 after a first term in which he showed that a dirty, dangerous, supposedly ungovernable city could become clean, safe and orderly? What about the man who stood fast on Sept. 11, when others, including President Bush, went AWOL?
That man is not running for president.
The real Mr. Giuliani, whom many New Yorkers came to know and mistrust, is a narrow, obsessively secretive, vindictive man who saw no need to limit police power. Racial polarization was as much a legacy of his tenure as the rebirth of Times Square.
Mr. Giuliani’s arrogance and bad judgment are breathtaking. When he claims fiscal prudence, we remember how he ran through surpluses without a thought to the inevitable downturn and bequeathed huge deficits to his successor. He fired Police Commissioner William Bratton, the architect of the drop in crime, because he couldn’t share the limelight. He later gave the job to Bernard Kerik, who has now been indicted on fraud and corruption charges.
Haaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah...
While Hillary and Barack duke it out over race, and Huckleberry is looking to convert the Ten Commandments (King James, please) into the new Bill of Rights, something is happening abroad...
Oh yeah, Bush is selling weapons to the Saudis. That's right: Dumbfuck is still in charge. And the surge still isn't working, because its the occupation everybody feared. Psyche!
Ah, the stakes are clear.
