Obama should just call Hillary's bluff. [View All]

[David Zephyr]

Bill and Hillary are out of poker faces. We've seen them all. Even the poker face where they wag their fingers when they are bluffing.

Let Hillary "take it to the convention" and let the Clintons exercise their so-called "nuclear option". Let them keep up their threats. Let them scoff at sensible compromises with Michigan and Florida. The more they threaten, the more Americans yawn.

It makes no difference anymore. America has grown very weary of their antics and threats. Hillary is no femme fatale. To paraphrase the line from Cabaret: "She's about as fatale as an after dinner mint."

Senator Obama will either have enough delegates to be the nominee or be within a stone's throw by convention time anyway. So let the Clinton Carnival have their threatened temper tantrum and let the world see them for what they are.

The entire country is now watching how Hillary and Bill behave. Their negatives are almost as high as those of George W. Bush. The Clintons can't get away with their old tricks anymore.

Barack Obama holds every card now.

Senator Obama: Call their bluff.
