Hillary is showing some very bad judgement right now (and for the past couple months) in my opinion. Staying in the race to beat up Obama and hurt the Democrats’ chances of winning in November when she has no real chance of winning seems like a bad decision. She’s also showing a George Bush-like disconnect from reality when she says this morning that “everything is going well” for her campaign. That’s pretty scary. Another commander in chief whose personal capacity for denial will endanger our country is exactly what we don’t need.
I’m also somewhat disappointed in Obama for the negativity of his campaign over the last month or two. All he had to do was stay above the fray and let Clinton show herself to be the egomaniacal machine that she is. But he didn’t, which shows bad judgement and also goes against what he says he’s about. Disappointing, but I still think he’s the best choice.
As a side note, I’m starting to understand why the right hates Hillary so much. I think it’s a personality thing. And her personality is really extremely grating to me. Her self-centeredness, galaxy-sized ego, stilted attempts at humor, apparent meanness and condescension really add up to something quite annoying.
