Oh, now he comes out and makes some damn sense, along with others, who did their best to destroy the Clinton legacy.

Even though he's right, I have no respect for him for saying this.  Let me hear him talk about how he played the game for the last year like all the other media did, and how wrong he was.  Then maybe I'd have an ounce of respect.

That's not the problem Maher.

The problem is Obama is kiss up - kick down kinda guy...and that's what we have in the white house now.  Do you like that?  How about this:

Barak Obama is now:

Pro-Iraq war [wants generals to tell him what to do next in Iraq...uh, words fail me].

Anti-choice [wants priests and boyfriends in on the decision...uh, never mind].

Pro-Death penalty enlargement [Death penalty...it's not just for murderers anymore].

Anti-Mideast Peace [having taken a stance that's as hard-line as any Lukid party member in Israel]

Pro-Telecom immunity [what's a little lawbreaking on a national scale when it comes to potential donors?]

Anti-gun control [yep, that's what I want,  Scalia, a guy who hangs with Dick Cheney, reviewing every gun control law]

Pro Government involvement with religion [for a "constitutional professor" that's ground breaking]

Anti-public campaign financing [what's the point of letting the Teleco's off if you can't get paid for it?]

This country needs to do a U-turn and head back to what worked for decades.

It was up front and clear back in 2000.  Matthews practically DROOLED over Bill Bradly because Bill was an NBA guy.  I swear to heaven if these pathetic wannabbees in our society, the guys who never outgrow their hero worship of hip types, continue to dominate the press and government we are in trouble.

I could see it way back with Obama.  The "he's so cool" meme running through the press.  It's the 2008 version of "he's the kind of guy you want to have a beer with...."  
Yes, I know the guys like to all say how Barack is an intellectual.  But HE PLAYS BASKETBALL....isn't that cool? (rolls eyes).

Older women are never "cool" with men, not young men and not old men. But being cool is not what a candidate should be.  And I know not ALL men think this way but many of you here know what I mean.
The pundit class is all about being "in", being rich, being cool.  Al Gore was made fun of because of his intellect and when he let advisers advise him as how to look "cool" he was the butt of the pundit class (do those guys ever look in the mirror????).

Women, especially women over a certain age, are never cool.  Younger they can be HOT, or sexy or even "animals" if they are athletic which can make them cool for a bit.   But never cool if you are over 40.

Hillary is a tougher fighter than Bill or Obama because she WORKS harder than them, can multitask  like most women, and is about getting the job done, instead of getting her ego stroked. But she's not hip or cool.

....Bill Clinton is still the only guy in that party who really knows how to do this, as far as talking to the American people,...

Just like Rendell did, Warner did, Strickland did, Webb did.

Now Maher changes his tune on the Clintons.  At least one of our Obama friends drank the Kool-aid directly from Bill Maher.  This guy didn't like Obama until Maher started touting him every night (he's a Bill Maher devotee).  The guy HATES Hillary because Maher hated her.  Wonder how his endorsement of the Clintons now will go down with the audience.

It would be a stab in the back not only to Hillary, but also to her voters, most of the 18 Million.

He cannot come up with a substitute for Hillary.  There is none.

There is not one person who has been mentioned as a possibility, man or woman, who stacks up to Hillary.

She has it all - experience, knowledge, intelligence, maturity, good judgement, competence, record of accomplishments, worldliness, the winner of the big important states, and the winner of the People's Votes.

If you don't count the caucus delegates he stole with the help of his thugs she won the delegates, too.

Biden's Mouth   [Jonah Goldberg]

I for one would love, love, love to see Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket. I think Ramesh merely scratched the surface when he said it would be something like an all-talk ticket. I think people would listen to Biden's gassbaggery and suddenly realize that the differences between the two men are very small indeed. It's sort of like when you're not sure if someone is a b.s. artist, or an ass, or a racist or whatever until you meet his wingman and that guy turns out to be much worse -- but also substantively the same. Birds of a feather and all that. I think Biden is such a yakker it would confirm that Obama is pretty much all-yackety-yak too.

Just look through Jim Geraghty's piece on Biden's pie-hole and you'll get a sense of what I mean, as if you needed that sense.

One small criticism of Jim's article though: he left out this bit on Indian-Americans, which would particularly come up if McCain picked a certain Louisiana governor.  

I actually know this college work-study kid at my job who told me her told her dad said he would take her out the will if she voted OBAMA.

please lets not pretend there are not a segment of DEMO's and INDIES  who wont vote for anything other than WHITE.  How large that segment is..is unknown.

Another deja vu: After devoting the last season of Real Time to Obama propaganda (he even hired  Obamafanatic Matt Taibbi to educate the audience in Obama love), Bill Maher took a break from fawning over Obama and saw the light ... Obama is not the liberal champion he thought he was.

Aawwwww .... ;-((

And then this other bit of Bill Maher wisdom: "...but you know what? I think they need the Clinton ruthlessness onboard. I really do. ..."

Ruthlessness of the Clintons? Bill Maher, where have you been? After witnessing the primaries one can only say - again - when one hears nonsense like this:
