That Hillary winning would be the last gasp of the left, as she invented the same triangulation that is killing us now.

And yes, if she is the nominee (which is to say, when the progessive rival gets shoved off the stage) I will vote for her, because the very, very worst Democrat is better than the very, very best Republican. We do not need another "compassionate conservative" to be a trojan horse to sneak in the far right.

That being said, she and her hubby will roll the party rightward. Bill O is already talking about how Obama should have allowed the Keystone pipeline, as if we learned nothing from the Gulf. And yes, Israel will come one step closer to that War with Iran, that country Hillary was willing to "obliterate" even though the Russians and Chinese have warned that doing so would be considered an act of war.
