The Remainder Bin is a little bit more full tonight

Not too terribly long ago, John Podhoretz once wrote a book called "Can She Be Stopped?: Hillary Clinton Will Be the Next President of the United States Unless... "

It turns out that the answer to that question is that not only can she be beat, but she managed to get beat by the lightest weight fighter who ever fought in her weight class.

You understand what I'm getting at right? She didnt get beat by the big bad right wing, paternal,God and the flag big buisness conspiracy that rules the world, she got beat by the only person in her party who didnt cower down to her in fear. As I said before, the man is to be both thanked and respected for that fact. He wont win the Presidency, but he deserves a medal for his work all the same.

Its my expectation at this point in the election show that on March 5th, we finally will see the "good ship USS Clinton" finally slip beneath the waves. I just realized that ff Castro dies on March 6th, i'll be all out of champagne, I guess that means I better stock up!

Let me also say that I think that Senator Obama is the most beatable candidate to grace the stage since McGovern or maybe Carter in his second electoral attempt to be a President. The only type of person that people hate more than a person who recently stopped drinking or smoking and cant wait to get you to stop either one is someone who implusively overpromises and then underdelivers. We have many, many months to go before the election and I guarantee you, this patina of charisma is going to buff off and reveal a pretty dull piece of statuary underneath. Any teenage male can tell you that when your potential new girlfriend is in one those girls with a 5-alarm teenage crush, that when that crush soon wears off that shes not too happy about the loss of endorphins that come from discovering that you really arent the dreamboat that she thought you were, and she will blame you for not being the guy she thought you were and ruining that really cool good feeling that she had. And yes, there will be blood... Fallen Idols, dont usually do very well.

Part of the reason I say that Obama will be defeated is because I'm now starting to hear Democrats say that they can't vote for someone who is that far to the left, that they just might vote for McCain after all, because " he doesnt seem so bad by comparison to that guy". When you have one candidate who most Republicans will vote for and a good number of Democracts will vote for, you have yourself a Presidential candidate who is going to win ( and not by 300 votes either). I have yet to meet an "independent" or a Republican who does anything but laugh at the idea of voting for Obama. Its my belief that while "everyone loves Obama" and theres no question that they do, only a small number are going to be willing to give him the electoral equivalent of free access to both the liquor cabinet and the Corvette.

Between now and the election, McCain only has to remain steadfast and alert and keep a smile on his face. Dont fall of the stage, dont dotter in the Debates, just answer the questions intelligently and clearly. It shouldnt be too hard to smile though, he's about to be President of the United States. He finally gets to outrank his "old man" and his Grandfather.

And all I have to say how is "GO NAVY!"
