Just when you thought the Democratic nomination for President was over, Barack Obama comes in with a stunner: He promises to promise that at some point in the future he may or may not get tough with Hillary. And with sharp rhetoric like "The notion...that we’re all holding hands and singing ‘Kumbaya’ is obviously not what I had in mind and not how I function," how could you not believe him?
Of course Obama joins John Edwards' Hair in protest of Clinton's early stranglehold on the nomination, with one obvious distinction (that Edwards acts like a real bitch about it, while Barack just promises to.) Edwards has been well conditioned for this kind of nasty politics, and he actually managed to whine his way to a very impressive debate last month up at Dartmouth. Lather, rinse and repeat and he should stave off obscurity for another few weeks.
As for the Notorious HRC? Expect her to continue be about as forthcoming as Alberto Gonzalez in a game of Mafia. It's worked pretty well for her so far. I just hope she doesn't use that line about liking to have all these men's attention, because...eww. The debates are painful enough to watch, I don't need the added image of her and Kucinich...you know what, let's move on.
Expect Joe Biden to accidentally do something unbelievably racist. Again. Expect Chris Dodd to intentionally do something unbelievably racist just to get attention. Because a good resume, finely tuned policy and a pretty well run campaign sure as hell haven't done the trick. Expect Bill Richardson to get held up by security, who can't believe that Horatio Sanz was invited to take the stage.
Joe Biden Arrives for the Debate in his Halloween Costume
And expect the Ghost of Mike Gravel to appear, just to remind us that 12 year olds should be able to vote and drink. And I say screw Obama's Politics of Hope--I prefer Gravel's politics of senility.
And check back in at Free Abramoff, where I'll be live blogging the fun starting at 9 pm. What else are you gonna watch? House?
Actually, now that you mention it...
