Nothing like winning a primary that has no delegates.  By a margin of 19% of the votes Hillary Clinton beat uncommitted 57% to 38%.  Which calls into question whether she’s electable or not.  Since the Clinton-Barrack-Edwards  Express  bypassed Michigan there’s a good possibility had uncommitted spent more on advertising it might have won the primary.

Mitt Romney’s victory speech in Michigan was so lame it couldn’t beat a one legged mule in a tap dancing contest.  Romney outspent McCain for what is effectively a last hurrah for both of them.  Giuliani and Thompson will make short work of both of them in South Carolina and Florida.  The “bounce” won’t mean a thing south of the Mason Dixon line.

John McCain is Bob Dole.  Dole was the wrong candidate in 1996 because “It’s my turn” wasn’t good enough and that’s McCain’s raison d’être in 2008.  McCain will not last a second after any of his opponents in the primary remind Republican voters McCain was offered and considered being John Fitzdoodle Kerry’s running mate against George Bush in 2004  on the Democratic Party ticket.  Unforgivable.

Chatty Cathy Doll politics (“I’m a billionaire look at me! Aren’t I clever? Pull my string!”) meets egotistical billionaire. If Mayor Bloomberg thinks his appeal exceeds the interest of Big Apple voters he is seriously delusional. Vanity politics is like vanity publishing, seldom worth reading let alone hearing about. Stop flushing money down the crapper Mike, at least Ross Perot has that creepy Dr. Strangelove vibe, you come off like Bill Gates at an insurance seminar.
