A beautiful theory destroyed by ugly facts (5.00 / 7) (#21)

The best side effect of the Clinton candidacy is that she's getting tons of negative press and voters are voting for her anyway.  If she were just another first lady and not as tough, tenacious and energetic as she apparently is (and now everyone can see it), she would have been out months ago.  She could have never survived this far.  Gary Hart couldn't.  Howard Dean couldn't.  Michael Dukakis?  Uh-uh.  But Hillary takes a licking and keeps on ticking.  She is driving the pundits crazy and if she wins the nomination, a lot of them will just have to give up in frustration.  Because while McCain is a media darling, he's still a Republican and not a very nice man.  
And the Republicans I talked to in PA who re-registered as Democrats yesterday know this.  If Hillary wins, she could set the media back 20 years.  If Obama wins the nomination, they just keep on trucking and he doesn't stand a chance.
