Will this thing ever be over?

That Clinton has impassioned supporters, many of whom link her candidacy to the feminist cause, hardly qualifies as news. And it's certainly true that along the campaign trail Clinton has encountered some outrageously sexist treatment, just as Barack Obama has been on the receiving end of bigoted treatment. (Obama has even been subjected to anti-Muslim bigotry despite the fact that he's not Muslim.) But somehow, a number of Clinton supporters have come to identify the seating of Michigan and Florida not merely with Clinton's prospects but with the causes of democracy and feminism -- an equation that makes a mockery of democracy and feminism.

Clinton herself is largely responsible for this absurdity. Over the past couple of weeks, she has equated the seating of the two delegations with African Americans' struggle for suffrage in the Jim Crow South, and with the efforts of the democratic forces in Zimbabwe to get a fair count of the votes in their presidential election.

This kind of crap is why many of us want Hillary to take her campaign debt, and her Hill-bots, and just go the fuck home!

She has tried every single dirty, unethical trick in the book and when she is not doing that she is claiming that Obama is using those tactics against her. Which of course he is not.

Bill Clinton claimed that the media was calling for Hillary to drop out. That is incorrect. The media loves this kind of crap.

However I am calling for her to drop out. I DON'T love this kind of crap.

Sorry if I sounded too much like the MSM (Main Stream Media). Technically I am part of the NBM (New Blogger Media).

So from the NBM, I would like to say "Hillary get out! Get out now!"

Oh and that new point that she keeps making that she is ahead in every single poll? Well that is just bullshit as well.
