The Most Compelling Reason to Vote for Hillary Clinton
This first video is clumsy and dumb, yet strangely wholesome.
This second video, in contrast, is one of the creepiest cultural artifacts I’ve ever encountered.

Well, its not hard to see why Hispanics prefer Hillary – if you abhor the evils of personality cults a la Fidel et al., this clip is a hoary reminder, chilling enough to send one running to the failed GOP. McCain needs to keep his cool, level head and not succumb to machiavellian-Medvedev-machinations (or perhaps that should be putative-Putin-putschisms of the “old guard” administration that he will probably be encouraged to keep if elected*) ‘cos there’s plenty of Latin American evil to be abhored and its not all left-wing (think Argentina, Chile, Venezuela). Indeed if he doesn’t get the economy right, in 2012 we might be facing a Chavez-like reincarnation of Obama v2.0, and it won’t be pretty. The war’s put us 2 trillion in the hole now, what’s four more years going to do to our trade imbalance with the sovereign wealth funds waiting like vultures to by up what’s left?
At least with a change of party, we’d clean house of the powers-that-be.
Make ‘em eat humble pie for a season. till they “come to their senses” (Luke 15:17) and place the value of human life at home above petty political expedience abroad.
(*) did anyone else notice how promptly GW put the Kabbosh on the chattering classes interest in a VP nomination at his televised McCain endorsement on the White House lawn? Golly gosh — modern medicine can keep Cheney in his bunker for four more years, who cares what name goes on the ticket?@

And we think Billary is a problem? Get real folks….!

The most incisive sentences of commentary anyone has written all week, Reihan. That Obama video is just incredible—how can it not be parody?, except that it’s really not. I wish Obama wasn’t so objectively better on the foreign policy issues I most care about, but. . .
