He doesn’t know it’s a damn show! He thinks it’s a damn fight!
(Apollo Creed’s trainer in Rocky (1976))

Trying to read Hillary Clinton’s mind — and that of her famous husband — has become the new favorite parlor game of American politics. Is she angling for the vice presidency? Or is she trying to sabotage Obama, to pave the way for her in 2012? Or, less Machiavellian in nature, is she simply waiting until after the West Virginia and Kentucky primaries, both of which she’s expected to win big, thereby allowing her to depart the campaign on a winning note?

To state the obvious, Joe Lieberman has the Democratic Party in a bit of a bind.

Hi. It’s Christy once again. Did you watch the testimony yesterday from Gen. Petraeus and Amb. Crocker? What should the reaction be?

Last time General Petraeus came to Congress with a report on Iraq, there was an uproar about MoveOn’s "General Betray Us" characterization that prompted a swift repudiation by Congress.

You could fill an ocean with the tears being shed by Democrats these days — tears of anguish and tears for opportunity lost. Here we stand, in all of our lefty glory, having been handed a historic opportunity to not only reclaim the presidency, but to rewrite the (right wing tilting) genetic code that’s been controlling American politics for almost two generations.

So what are Democrats doing with this great opportunity? Well, by most accounts (including some by me), we’re fu*king it up royally. Far from pushing our considerable advantages over the Republicans to there fullest, we’re allowing the increasingly nasty campaign between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to tear the party apart.
