Clinton Ugly vs. Obama the Swoonmaker

With Obama chalking up Wisconsin and Hawaii in the win column, bringing to ten the number of successive victories, Hillary Clinton is on the ropes. Surfing through the punditsphere this morning, I found common agreement that Clinton's campaign now relies upon shrinking hope fortified by her most reliable followers, white women over 60. Arguably, white women over 60 have never sealed a national election.

Nevertheless, pundits are cautious and haven't scratched Hillary Clinton yet. They know something. It's as if Hillary put the "she" in shenanigan and something will be made to happen to impede the Obama train of swoons. Even liberal Maureen Dowd acknowledges that the Clintons don't fight fair. And, as we all know, political derailments are not uncommon.

A frequent prediction is that Hillary will get ugly and let loose the hounds before the March 4th Texas and Ohio primaries. So, the final round match-up is Clinton Ugly vs. Obama the Swoonmaker. Put on your seat belts, travelers, turbulence is predicted.
