A few other things about tonight. Hillary's out of money and Barack's money is rolling in like a tsunami. Hillary is taking more and more of a hit for her negative campaigning and it's hurting her throughout the country. And last but not least, Hillary came out today and said should Iran launch an attack on Israel that we would "obliterate them." I assume that she meant she would find some way, if she were elected president, to eliminate the leaders of that country who initiated the attack. I assume that she did not mean that she would literally use the military might of the United States of America to destroy the people of Iran. I know that she (I'm sorry, her campaign), can be something of a hate monger and a dirty dealer, but threatening to destroy an entire people? An entire civilization? At a time when our country is losing credibility throughout the world (which is contributing in no small measure to the declining dollar), we need a foreign policy that is focused on resolving regional and global conflict through diplomacy with our allies, not some John Wayne rhetoric that sounds all too familiar to those of us who had the misfortune to be paying attention for the past eight years.
I will weep for our future should Senator Clinton find some way to get elected.

Obliterate them -- that's amazing. I kind of suspect she meant the entire country. This whole thing is getting ridiculous. My concern is that they are so busy sniping at one another that people will end up turning to McCain.
I read this on The Health Care Blog earlier today:
If McCain wins, we all move to Canada. Northern Canada, where we'll not only have healthcare, but may be able to avoid the fall-out from the nuclear war that he starts.
Perhaps we should worry about Hillary also.
Thanks for the post!
