I am Done With Hillary

Between her "He's a Christian as far as I know" and her wanting to put a nuclear umbrella, it was getting harder to consider voting for her - except that she was not a Republican. The final straw is her silence on the anti-Oblama ad that was to be put out by the North Carolina Republicans.

WTF? Is Hilary a Republican in drag or a Democrat? Does she want the job so bloody much that she has started singing in the GOP choir?

We as a party are as quarrelsome as none other, but we need to draw a line when Republicans making scurrilous attacks on a Democratic candidate and the other Democratic candidate by her silence gives support to the Republicans' attacks.

What will we get if Hillary does not get the nomination? Ragnarok? Is she going to stand between the pillars and pull the roof down? Pick your analogy. The end with the same result and that it seems that is the desired result.

Steve Hammer over at Nuvo has captured my feelings better than myself:

There was a time when Bill Clinton topped my list of all-time favorite Americans. His presidency brought peace and prosperity to our country. His policies put millions of people back to work.

He is still one of our greatest presidents, but he’s not a hero of mine any more. Similarly, there was also a time when Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton was one of my heroes. Sharply intelligent and graceful, she was one of the most effective First Ladies ever.

This campaign has changed all that. The Clintons are no longer idolized by me. I’m still cool with Chelsea, but Bill and Hillary have angered and disappointed me by running one of the most brutally cynical and negative campaigns in history.

Faced with a tidal wave of support for Barack Obama, the Clintons’ response has been nothing short of disgraceful. As soon as it became apparent she was losing, the Clintons took a page from the Nixon and Bush playbook and started fighting dirty.

He concludes Bill and Hillary sound more like Bush every day with:

A vote for McCain is a vote for four more years of Bush policies. A vote for Clinton is a vote for the return of insider politics and Nixonian dirty tricks. A vote for Obama is a signal that democracy is alive and well.

I can no longer disagree with this kind of thinking or find some reasonable explanation for Mrs. Clinton's campaign other than she wants the nomination at all costs even if means ruining the Democratic Party and losing the general election.
