Just finished reading that too. Unfortunately, the MSM controls the life-cycle of such stories, so I'm guessing rather than further coverage of this, we'll see more about Wright, Ayers, etc.

Hillary is Barry without a schlong. They are the same person.

Things usually happen in the MSM about 2 - 4 days after "we" read it.
The lede for this story is simple enough for the MSM / MSP to get their hands around: "Organization backing Hillary pays for illegal and deceptive robo-calls". Quick, simple, to the point... and very few people haven't received an annoying robo call, so the underlying animus is already there. Combined with the already present impression she's a liar that doesn't want to play by the rules... injecting "cheater too" to the argument...
is just enough to allow gently tapping her over the precipice.
Edit: And it looks like today is the (the beginning of???) the long awaited "SuperDelegate Day". Today's public endorsements (so far): Obama-3, Hillary-1.

Wait, so if I donate to BHO's campaign and then break a lot of election laws, is that going to knock him out of the campaign?

Dear Abby,
I am a 60-year-old woman who is married to a man who acts like he hates me. In public, he pretends he loves me and talks about how wonderful I am. But in private, he shakes his finger in my face and calls me the "B" word. He constantly tells me how ugly I am without make-up. I've tried everything, including a face-lift, botox treatments, and a chin tuck. I even went on a diet and lost 20 pounds.
He quit his job a few years ago after having an affair with a woman in his office. He hasn't even looked for another job. We haven't slept together bince I confronted him about the affair. He denied it, of course, but everybody knew it. It was humiliating. I believe he is still messing around.
While we both want to sell this house, we argue constantly about when to put it on the market. The house we want will be avail able in a few months. My husband wants to put our house on the market now. I think we should wait a while. He has already started collecting boxes and packing up his stuff. Do you think he is planning to leave me?
Signed, Worried in NY
Dear Worried in NY:
I doubt it. He wants to move back into the White House as much as you do.
One more for you.
Election Quandary: Over here in the UK we cannot figure out why you guys are even bothering to hold an election in the U.S.
On one side, you have a bitch who is a lawyer that is married to a lawyer, and on the other side, you have a lawyer who is married to a bitch who is a lawyer.
On the third side, you have a true war hero, married to a woman with nice hooters, who owns a beer distributorship.
Is there a contest here?

With Russert & Co. finally realizing she's done & her having to loan herself more $$$... she's DOA.
Now she just needs to figure out if she wants to be thrown out, or leave with some dignity.

BarryO is damaged goods. The numbers don't look good for him. Why should Ham Hocks drop out now? www.americanthinker.com/2008/05/obama_the_one_hit_wonder_1.htmlTake a look at the Pew Research Poll from last week. The national trends are shocking. In March, Barack was tied with Hillary among white voters who are Democrats or lean that way. Now he is down sixteen!
With working class whites, the gap is more devastating. Hillary's ten point advantage from March is now at forty! These trends continued in Tuesday's vote. This is no joke -- it represents an electability crisis.
Barack has become a niche candidate. If you're black, rich or went to an Ivy League school, then you're definitely in his camp. College professors love him. College kids love him. People who wax nostalgic for the good old days of blowing up buildings would swear off ammonium nitrate forever to see him win. And there are many who miss the explosive sixties, just not enough of them to make Barack into a viable general election candidate.
But with other groups that we're told are key Obama constituencies, the numbers are also sobering. Barack's six point lead among those making more than $50,000 per year has become a five point deficit. The college educated, a critical base of support, only favor him by five.

Yep... he's damaged alright. If he wasn't facing a candidate that couldn't get more than 75% of his party vote - when he's running uncontested... / didn't want us to stay in Iraq for 100 or 1000 years, all while not knowing the subtle differences between Sunni/Shia/AlQaeda/Iran... I'd worry a bit. As it is, I'll continue backing the "Muslim member of a Christian church" that has a full name reminiscent of 2 US foes... even if the topic changes to flags ( )... as he's, by far, the best candidate - and doesn't flip flop on his major stances.
