HILLARY'S LAST GASP
B+B:
It is 7:20p on Tuesday (aka Kentucky & Oregon) evening, and we are hearing Clinton chief stooge Terry McCauliff declare - with utterly stright face - that "super delegates are holding off...not going for Obama - because they are waiting to see who is the most electable Democrat in the general election."
You must say this for Terry: he never fails to give it the ol' college try.
The Fact is, S-delegates knew long, long ago they are breaking big for 0-Bama....they just need the figleaf of the final primaries to minimize the sting Hillary's supporters (i.e. the Amazon Brigade) will inevitably feel when party leaders officially dump her for 0-Bama.
THAT is what explains Dem SuperDelagates' exhibiting such etiquette and chivilary.
They are going for 0-Bama, and that's that.
The reluctance Terry and other Clintonites sense on the part of their delegates is not hesitancey at all, but Theatrics.
They Don't Dare - and won't - spurn the Black Guy, period.
Excelsior!

NIGHTMARE SCENARIO: OBAMA WINS
B+B:
Many of us have recently asked: "Unelectable"? What exactly do you mean "Obama is Unelectable"?
Here's exactly what:
I have been engaged in national politics/media for 25 years. There is nothing in my experience or the primary numbers or what we know of Obama - nothing - that suggests he can win a national election.
Then again, The Patriots couldn't lose the Superbowl.
IF the horrible were to happen (i.e. President Obama) Here are 10 Things that would have to occur:
1. The students/young voter turn out is huge, historically unprecedented.
2. African-American voters (same as above).
3. Conservatives, alienated by McCain, stay home on election day.
4. McCain runs "honorable" campaign, refusing to criticize Obama's politics.
5. The media referees the rules such that McCain is evil, Obama a saint.
6. There is a new "electoral map", whereby a Democrat can win without white, blue collar voters.
7. Clinton primary voters give in and turn out for Obama.
8. Independents break big for Obama.
9. Obama actually does pulls some Republican votes.
10. The Libertarian Presidential Candidate (Yes, there will be one) draws a tiny number of votes...but just enough to make a difference in a close race.
That is, A Perfect Storm of highly unlikely, unprecedented events - nothing less than a profound, historical sea change of American culture and politics - all combining to elect Obama.
Obama is Unelectable.
But the Patriots couldn't lose to the Giants.
Excelsior!

"CLINTON WINS STUPID RACIST VOTE"
B+B:
There's your headline for tomorrow's
According to the establishment media OF COURSE Hillary Clinton is wining in "Hee Haw" country! They're all stupid! All backwards! Own guns! Believe in God!
Despite the fact NO DEMOCRAT HAS IN NEARLY A CENTURY WON THE PRESIDENCY WITHOUT WINNING WEST VIRGINIA, the news will be down-played, if not ignored...because these are Dumb White People.
In the minds and on the lips of the media, Naturally Clinton wins West Virginia: these votes come from the Cast of "Deliverance".
By the way: Clinton will not win West Virginia by nearly as great a margin as Obama wins every African-American population center...just imagine if someone in the media reported made equivalent remarks (e.g. "Well, OF COURSE Obama won Detroit! THEY'RE ALL...."
So, just to get this straight:
Obama anywhere wins monolithic black vote = Hope + Change.
Clinton wins in predominantly white area = RACISM.
West Vir-ginny! Yay-hoo! Break out that banjo music!
Excelsior!

WHY IT MUST BE MITT
B+B:
Historically and practically, a Presidential candidate chooses a running mate based on how many EXTRA votes that partner will attract.
John McCain hasn't that luxury.
Perhaps the single most overlooked - or just plain not grasped - factor in McCain's choice of VP is this: His problem is not how many EXTRA votes his runing mate might draw - it is HOW McCAIN GETS CONSERVATIVES TO VOTE FOR HIM AT ALL.
The conservative base of the Republican party is angry.
Angry with McCain, angry with his liberal record on taxes, illegal immigration, free speech, judges, etc.
Angry that their only choice on November 4th is between a Communist (the Democrat) and a Liberal (McCain).
And, as a result, many of them - of whom I am one - will not personally vote for McCain.
...unless McCain pickes Mitt Romney.
Mitt Romney gives us a conservative on the ticket and, plausibly, in the White House in the not-distant future, maybe for 8 years.
Mitt Romney would define, rebuild and support the Republican party - and Republican Principles.
Mitt Romney would give us a reason to hold our noses with only one hand, and vote for McCain with the other.
Mitt Romney would give the coservative base hope - and bring us to the polling place.
John McCain can stop worrying right now about which fresh new face he can use to go out and win brand new Republican voters, and start worrying about getting Mitt Romney on the ticket...just so he can climb out of the hole in which he begins and get himself up to Zero.
McCain should win this thing.
But his biggest worry is not Obama.
It is Me and You.
No Mitt, No Conservatives.
No Conservatives, No President McCain.
That is why it must be Mitt.
Excelsior!
