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.

This point is as eloquent as it is fitting; Poison is both the female killer method of choice, as well as the preferred method of femail suicide.

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.

And i think you're going to see more of this from Obama as the race heats up. IMO, That was a glimpse of of things to come - in one swift and frankly stunningly efficient, he drowned Trump like a disabled puppy on a broke farm. He waited (and baited) Trump to stand out on that ledge so far, by cleverly avoiding the birth issue, until there was no return then unleashed a fury on the Ginger Baldy, in the form of the infamous document, the killing of Osama (and let's not forget nation security, especially relating to 911 was one of Trumps sound boards) and then put him down with the after dinner speech.
This was a case of precision orchestration (birth cert and speech) and good use of timing (osama).
You also caught a glimpse of the real Obama from that recording when the mic was left open, and he, much to Weepey's embarrassment, showed how politic he can be.
Don't get me wrong, I think Obama has fallen way short of what he should have been and in that respect has been somewhat a failure - but it's not that he's done things badly, it's that he hasn't done enough with the opportunities before him.
But just wait. I've got a strong feeling you'll see more of this surgical strike behavior from Obama when candidates start showing up for real. There's a reason he beat all those other to the post - it wasn't luck, and with Candidates like Bachman and Romney, he won't need any luck.
Finally some shit needs to be laid to rest:
REAGAN, TAXES: Taxes, especially for the rich, were far higher under Reagan than they are now. Period. No discussion, no revision of history. The fact he lowered them towards the end of his presidency is actually the illustrative starting point of Reaganomics, which all economists now concur, simply does not work (see the wealth divide & poverty gap for more details).
