Can Hillary's candidacy be saved?

The mass media is orchestrating the drumbeat of Obama momentum, having us believe that he is already the Democratic presidenital nominee, even though crucial primaries in Texas, Ohio and Pennsylvania remain--states where Hillary has been running strong in the polls untill very recently. The Democrats also have the very undemocratic Superdelegates--elected officials and party hacks that comprise almost 20% of the vote at the national convention--who are very subject to backroom manipulation.

Here's one believes that Bill and Hillary still have rabbits to pull out of the hat. Despite an atrocious campaign to date, and Bubba's tantrums on the campaign trail, I don't believe we've heard the last of the Clintons. They may only have begun to fight, and turn the screws on the Superdelegates.

This is one rightwinger who also believes, and takes quite seriously in fact, all the tales and dead bodies of Bill and Hillary's rise through seamy Arkansas politics to the presidency. If Ron Brown and Vince Foster could speak, they'd have all kinds of juicy informaton.

If Obama does win the nomination, the last thing he should do is take on Hillary as his vice presidential nominee. What would Ron and Vince advise about that?
