The Election

More on the cantankerous Clintonistas. One thing I have liked about his Obama is his reluctance to kiss the ring of certain people used to being stroked -- Jesse Jackson, for instance. Apparently he has declined to get on bended knee and beg the hard core Clinton crowd for their forgiveness. His crime? Whupping her keister in the primaries. I think that by the end of this convention he'll waver and everyone will kiss and make up for the final night's audience, but maybe not. It'll be more fun if they stay mad.
I'll tell you this, if Obama loses -- especially if the Clinton cronies sit on their hands -- there will be a post-election bloodletting in the party which will look like the last 15 minutes of Peckinpah's "The Wild Bunch."
Here's hoping.
