The friends zone

quote: Don't get me wrong. I hope to see a democrat back in the white house. And i would prefer Obama to Clinton. Hilary is musing about attacking Iran while Obama is talking about scrapping star wars and steering America toward a more sane nuclear policy. America would still rule the world with an iron fist, and the most we can expect from Obama is that he might put the fist back in the velvet glove. Nevertheless, the fisting will continue.

Simply because a democrat makes it to the whitehouse may as well equate whereas Obama-itis / re-branding of American democracy. Seriously speaking about Hillary is like thinking of an American Margret Thatcher carries substance to it, seeing that American's are coming off 2 successive Republican presidency's. (Ronald Regan loved Thatcher's conservative policies.) I honestly think Hillary has lost her edge, be it by media and lost confidence in her fellow democrats for office. That is in observing what you make of a soft-style campaign, because John Kerry wanted to put the screws down when running against Bush. Guess what? Kerry totally backfired, because American's didn't want a loud message coming across. I think about it as hyper-sensitive focus on Kerry's part, but he had guts, and I liked that about Kerry even though it cost him the presidency. As for Al Gore before Bush became president, the minds of American's were built on Clinton, and Hillary just can't work that kind of democratic campaign today as Gore did running against Bush. Bush heading into office was a blind-sided victory, and it changed the course of history. Mind you if it weren't for Hillary-iron-lady image I think American's would actually vote for Hillary if the Clinton-esque magic hadn't worn off. For Hillary this is about bad timing, because the brain-trust aligning democrats forces are focused on delivering: "American's from being targetted as vermin of the free world" campaign. Therefore, democrats won't repeat the same campaign trail as Kerry did marching to the beat of his own drum, American's didn't buy into it, they wanted to be lullabied. . . Kerry probably would have been president. We can be sure that Obama is winning only because Hillary had to mimic Obama's acting "softer" approach to politics, however, it doesn't mean that Obama is smarter than she is. Hillary is losing this battle against Obama's status-quo image. You can be sure it's not the way Hillary intended to run for president.
