I've got that nagging feeling about Hillary Clinton about now. She knows she's not helping her own party or her own chances. She's essentially doing the GOP's bidding, even if not via direct instructions from the RNC. Her actions simply make me wonder whose side she actually thinks she on.

That said, I still don't see a chance in hell of McBush winning in 08. But every minute Hillary Clinton draws this out is another minute MSRNC and all the General Electric affiliates, and Disney TV and Viacom, etc, get to promote McBush and trash the "infighting" among Democrats, as they intentionally help Hillary Clinton muddy the minds of the masses into thinking she actually does have a chance of becoming the nominee without further destroying the country in the process.

Great for their ratings. Great for Hillary's ego. Very bad for our already teetering democracy.

1. Sorry, but I disagree about Kerry
If anything, you could argue that he took one for the team. We had contested the 2000 election with legitimate cause, but if we contested 2004 it would have looked like Democrats can never accept the results of elections. And there were voting irregularities in Ohio, but it was not THAT close, and most of the irregularities dealt with people being turned away from the polls or lines being too long. A recount would not have fixed that.
