VILSACK TO ENDORSE HILLARY (?!?!?)
Via TPM Election Central, Tom Vilsack is set to endorse Hillary Clinton when she comes to Iowa this Monday.
At first I was surprised (dude, no way). Then I entered into a bit of denial (maybe they’ve got this wrong). Then I was just plain grossed out and embarrassed.
It looks as though this will simply extend the pattern of the Vilsack family throwing their crucial support behind terrible establishment candidates (from Gore c. 2000, to Kerry, to H. Clinton) all of whom are sure to loose a general.
I guess this endorsement lends some credence to the (somewhat cynical) notion that Vilsack is really gunning for VP, and will thus back whoever has the best shot of winning the nomination. (Although that theory doesn’t really hold up to the Kerry endorsement, as it was the Vilsack push alone that put Kerry ahead in Iowa, launching him toward the nomination.)
No matter.
Am I the only liberal alive who would rather vote for a third term of George W. Babuskha over Hillary Clinton? Maybe I exaggerate.
Please, Tom. I supported you. I donated to your campaign. I fed endless money into your ultimately worthless futures contracts. Why oh why the Queen of Divisiveness? The extension of a family dynasty? The transformation of a two-party system into a two-family system?
Why oh why not Barack??
