Regardless of the faux backlash, this is the truth. And now, her own mother is disrespecting her.
That’s love.
Next Chelsea sighting? Under the bus.

Today’s Read
Jim Geraghty.
Every aspiring Democratic president deemed “the next JFK” has revealed feet of clay — be it from scandal, domestic- or foreign-policy failures, a sense of opportunities squandered or great promise unfulfilled. In every instance, there was always a man behind the curtain whom it became impossible to ignore.
Could Barack Obama go on to be a successful president? It’s possible, and if he attains the office, Americans of all political stripes will wish him well in his duties to protect the country. But history, and human nature, tell us that no president could live up to the inhuman expectations being created at this moment.
Is She Really Ready?
Hillary Clinton’s constant refrain is that she’ll be “ready on day one” to be President of the United States. Yet, according to John Baer of the Philadelphia Daily News, Clinton doesn’t seem to be ready at all in the “organizational skills” department.
A First…
I never thought I’d link to the Huffington Post, but today, I do. This piece from RJ Eskow isn’t half bad.
Stick a Fork in Her
Nine.
Nine losses in a row.
9.
She’s nearly done.
Gasping for Breath
Clearly, that’s what the Clinton campaign is doing by pushing this non-story today.
Pitiful.
And We Care?
When Sharon Stone speaks, who really listens?
Mark Penn, Genius
Yes, he really did say this…
“Could we possibly have a nominee who hasn’t won any of the significant states — outside of Illinois? That raises some serious questions about Sen. Obama.”
That’ll win the hearts and minds of voters who live in any of the 21 non-Illinois states won by Obama. Way to go, Mark.
Dick “Emily Latella” Morris
Didn’t he say that Hillary would win the nomination by losing South Carolina?
Nevermind.
