Vegas line on the Dems
Remarkable week in the Donkey race.
Hillary (also) gave a major speech — on foreign policy. No smiles. All business. Doing her best to appear presidential, and doing it well.
The Chicago minister is indeed a big liability. But Barack’s address of the issue was fresh, bracing, courageous and loveable.
Nevertheless I doubt the party leadership will put him out there to be pounded by Rev Wright videos all fall long.
Thus, seems the show now is all about precisely how the superdelegates will arrange to have Hillary atop the ticket and Barack as VP.
And then the question will remain as to how badly the GOPhers will hurt Hillary with Vince Foster. ??
Curious to see how Barack would react to pressure from above. Surely the party would rather have him concede graciously after Pennsylvania, rather than force a public vote in which the superdelegates went heavily against him.
Maybe I’m wrong. Just reporting impressions at the end of a tumultuous four-day week …
