lol... damn Ziller. That was pretty in depth. I don't think she'd get the nomination anyway, but I doubt anything will change based on that semi-gaffe; that was by no means some watershed moment. The people who hate her will continue to dismiss her, and her supporters will continue to support. |
I thought she had a legitimate chance to snuggle with Romney (my uncertain pick) after the primary but now I'm calling the time of death. I could be wrong but I tend to think of these things (Bachman, H. Clinton) in terms of poisonings, not plane-wrecks or bullets. There might not be much of a crash-pulse. The wound channel isn't apparent. Poisons - particularly good ones - take their time.
The night Osama died, Trump got a head-shot, too. His ambitions may have been halfhearted, anyway, but in conjunction with Trump's then current public assurances about Obama's birth-certificate and the timing of the announcement to blatantly, "accidentally" interrupt that buffoonish minstrel's prime-time slot, he could not have been more dead to the political world. Trump just fucking got dominated. No if's, and's, or but's.
Gingrich stalled out, pulling up too hard with not enough thrust over the Atlantic Ocean. The crash-pulse happened the day his staffers quit. There is no resurrecting that fiasco, save to put the shattered fuselage back together in some hanger where there will then be a report made for all future campaign managers as well as their charges about the monumentally ego-centric chain of failures that occurred to bring Newt's ambitions to a stunningly disastrous water landing somewhere between the Continental United States and the Bahamas. Or was it Bermuda?
That leaves Bachman, who ingested the poison, herself. It's not apparent all of the ways it's causing her systems to fail, apart for that one persistent symptom, that even Fox News can't ignore. It's consistently addressed in the media and Fox can only scratch the festering sore in trying to apply a steady stream of public relations salves and ointments. The concealer is failing and the cracks in her foundation are showing around a gaping sore, on the tip of her nose, which will soon expand to take the shape of Gacy's nostril flare.
Bachman had a chance, though. She's a lawyer and will still be a competent Washington player behind the scenes if not in front of the camera. She won't ever get to an appointed position like Hillary managed; even if Obama loses. There's not enough Clinique Remover in the world to get that clown make-up off of her.
Kind of in a mood to write, tonight.
