Hoosier coffin nailers
May 9, 2008Our place in history is secure:
History will record the Indiana and North Carolina primaries as the events that secured the 2008 Democratic nomination for Barack Obama—and put the final nails in the coffin of Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
This article and a lot like it try to figure out “what went wrong” for Clinton. Most of them overlook the two most obvious: 1. A lot of people intensely dislike Clinton. 2. Obama ain’t Clinton.

1. A lot of people intensely dislike Clinton. 2. Obama ain’t Clinton.
Now that’s a gross oversimplification.
Obama ain’t Clinton and he ain’t McCain either. Or Huckabee or Romney or any of ‘em. Which is to say he doesn’t have that familiar ring of insincerity that we’ve come to expect from politicians. He doesn’t treat voters as if they were all stupid.
Frankly, I wish somebody’d bust Bill with a hooker so Hillary would back off and let the real debates begin.
