Paglia - With Friends Like These ...

Paglia, with an unmistakable dervish-like spin-and-swoon, has her brain caught in her very own magnetic field, induced by the whirling about of her steel-plated breasts(plate):

The galvanizing energy aroused by Barack Obama's thrilling coast-to-coast victories gives Democrats a clear shot at regaining the White House.


He won the coasts? Who knew? Luckily, some of us have Faraday shielding...

But not AS, who passes out a distinctly feminist "attagirl". Does that come with a fanny-pat or a cheek squeeze, one wonders ...

But I'll mark my notes that Paglia thinks Obama has a "clear shot", one better than Hillary; because that boat is really not even in the harbor yet, let alone the next four years of accomplishments. (Bear in mind that not one person in Lutz's group could answer the question, "Name one of Barack Obama's biggest achievements". He has some - they don't know them . Think about that then re-read Camille... If she's right, it's because even John Kerry could win against John McCain, today; not because of some "clear shot".).

KNEE-JERK CLINTON BASHING

Apart from doing unto others just now, folks ought to consider just how much Clinton bashing they want to do. It's one thing to 'neutralize' Bill in a political campaign, using Al Sharpton. It's quite another to kick a dog...

People are going to remember that Obama dissed Bill's efforts to build the party. Barack's just throwing away goodwill with two hands. The "core" Democratic expertise - the technocrats - do not rest with the Howard Dean wing and Kennedy is not enough (in fact, he's going to be a huge liability, in ways that I care not to mention, right now, lest they become self-fulfilling prophecies).

That George Will is still so vexed, to the point of vacuousness, over some Louisiana back-water "solipsisms" of Bill Clinton, while skipping over McCain's almost unimaginable use of the English language (to the point that it's plain he's using teleprompters these days), ought to be a signal to a smart politician just how valuable the Clintons are, in political terms.
