I heard this while at work today, and since Bill Moyers is such a sage of the left I just had to share it with you:

Broadcasting Legend Bill Moyers on the 2008 Elections

AMY GOODMAN: What about Hillary Clinton now staying in the race?

BILL MOYERS: She's a--you know, I admire Hillary Clinton. I know what it's--I've seen over the years how hard it is for a woman, a married woman, to gain her independence in our society, whatever her profession, and I admire the way she's tried to negotiate her own persona, her own position, her own place in our politics. But if she stays in this race, it can only be at the expense, as I said, of her reputation and of Obama, because she can only move forward by attacking him, by continuing to say he can't win in November, which is not true.

I don't have a horse in this race. I enjoy watching it, and I actually have admiration for all three of these candidates within the political system. But she's got--she just cannot win, except--remember Marlene Dietrich in that great movie where Marlene Dietrich, the actress, says, "See what the boys in the back room will have and tell them I'll have the same"? She can only win in the metaphorical back room, in the superdelegates.

And the key date is not these upcoming primaries. She'll do alright in West Virginia. She'll do alright in San Juan in Puerto Rico. He will do well in Montana, South Dakota, and probably in basically white but liberal Oregon. But this--on May 31st, the Democratic Rules Committee meets to assess how to deal with the Michigan and Florida delegates. Thirteen of the members of that thirty-person committee are Clinton supporters, eight are Obama supporters, the others are undecided. If she were to muscle her way to a decisive moment in that Rules Committee where they decide to change the rules here in the last inning, she will really be hurt.

But that's the only way, barring lightning striking him. You know, that's what she keeps hoping for every day, is that lightning will strike him, and she'll have a--some October surprise in May will happen. That's not going to happen. She can only win in a way that would leave the Democratic Party in shambles.

This coveted endorsement for Obama comes from the largest Newspaper in Kentucky, the Louisville Courier Journal. I should also note that the Courier Journal is also widely read across Southern Indiana:

Barack Obama for the Democrats

Sen. Barack Obama referred to that excitement in a teleconference interview last week with this newspaper's editorial board. "We were always the longshot," he said. "The fact we've done so well speaks to the hunger of the American people for a different message and a different direction."

We agree, and we also believe that Sen. Obama is the Democratic candidate better equipped to restore Americans' hope for the future and to bring change to Washington.

For that reason, we endorse Sen. Obama in Tuesday's Indiana primary and in the May 20 contest in Kentucky.

The timing of this endorsement is critical because it may catch the attention of late deciders in Southern Indiana, as well as providing critical support for Obama in Kentucky's upcoming contest.

There has been a huge battle over the temporary reduction of a tax on fuel that would be worth a savings of $25 to $40 to most American drivers.

More important energy issues need our attention.

We Americans have built the most automobile dependent transportation system in the world. The development patterns this system have given rise to have resulted in sprawling suburbs around our central cities, and the far flung exurbs beyond those suburbs. Many Americans have made a tradeoff of longer commutes for more affordable housing or the aesthetics of a more remote location.

Americans also drive the biggest gas guzzlers of any country on the planet. The price of fuel is making stepping on the gas a financially painful exercise for the legions of SUV owners, Truck owners and Mini-Van owners. They find themselves in predicament created by America's advertising driven energy intensive lifestyle.

Gallup Poll

Nearly three in four Americans say today's record gas prices are creating a hardship for them personally (20%) or have caused them to adjust their usual spending and saving habits in significant ways (52%).

Of course there are other more long lasting environmental costs to America's energy intensive lifestyle.

These two Elitists share remarkably similar attitudes toward people with wealth like their own.

This is an impressive crowd - the haves and the have-mores," quipped the GOP standard-bearer. "Some people call you the elites; I call you my base. -George W. Bush
CBS News

Eight years later:

O'Reilly interjected. "I'm not middle class, I'm a rich guy." Clinton responded (in an awkward moment), "Rich people, God bless us. We deserve all the opportunities to make sure our country and our blessings continue until the next generation." -Hillary Clinton
Huffington Post

Both statements were made by rich individuals who think they are somehow entitled become America's President.

If you didn't enjoy having an Elitist in the White House for the last seven and one half years, then Hillary's uncharacteristic honesty should give you pause.

This blistering report from tonight's ABC Evening News completely undercuts Hillary's hypocrisy on trade and exporting American jobs.

Hoosier Responsible?

"We went to Valparaiso," Clinton told voters in Princeton, Ind., last night, "where there used to be a plant called Magnequench that made the magnets that helped to guide the precision-guided missiles, the so-called smart bombs. You've seen those -- they take off, they go down the chimney, they were incredibly sophisticated and these magnets, you know -- not the kind you put on the refrigerator, like we all do -- but these really sophisticated magnets were instrumental making that happen."

Clinton continued, saying, "Well, a Chinese company bought Magnequench and then they decided that they were going to move the whole company from Indiana to China. Now the president of the United States has the authority to veto that kind of a move, but Senator [Evan] Bayh begged the Bush administration not to export it -- it was going to lose jobs but it was also going to lose the know-how, the technical sophistication that created those magnets. President Bush and his administration wouldn't, basically wouldn't even give Evan Bayh the time of day. Those jobs left, and along with them went the savvy to make the magnets."

What Clinton doesn't tell voters is that Magnequench was originally sold to Chinese interests during her husband's administration, which okayed the move despite concerns about national security and eventual job loss. Experts say the Chinese acquired the "technical sophistication" that created the magnets long before George W. Bush took office.

In the ABC Report Hillary is caught lying about how the Magnequench jobs left Indiana. This has just eclipsed Obama's bitter remarks among blue collar Americans (I'm proud to be blue collar).

I expect it's already going viral on UTube

During the Primaries Hillary's Campaign has had Mark Penn's company Burson-Marsteller do $14 Million in polling and consulting of which $4.5 Million is still owed by the campaign.

Clinton still owes about $4.5 million to her former chief strategist, Mark Penn, who resigned amid a controversial relationship with the Colombian government earlier this month. There has been talk that Clinton may even need to lend her campaign more money, something she did in late January as she was being outspent in February 5th states.

CBS News

Penn is probably even happier than Clinton that the money is rolling in again.

As usual Frank Rich doesn't mince words in looking at ABC's Debate:

Shoddy! Tawdry! A Televised Train Wreck!

Of course, Obama fans were angry because of the barrage of McCarthyesque guilt-by-association charges against their candidate, portraying him as a fellow traveler of bomb-throwing, America-hating, flag-denigrating terrorists.

This line of attack trys to ignore the fact that America's most dammaging traitors now occupy our White House.

Ludicrous as the whole spectacle was, ABC would not have been so widely pilloried had it not tapped into a larger national discontent with news media fatuousness. The debate didn't happen in a vacuum; it was the culmination of the orgy of press hysteria over Mr. Obama's remarks about "bitter" small-town voters. For nearly a week, you couldn't change channels without hearing how Mr. Obama had destroyed his campaign with this single slip at a San Francisco fund-raiser. By Wednesday night, the public was overdosing.

I agree that Americans are fed up with this kind of hysterical trivia reaching a saturation point in the media.

What an amazing turn of events. After being up by one digit just yesterday, Hillary is now in second place in the gallup national tracking.

Gallup says:

Obama has for now stemmed the recent drop in his support and is back in front of Clinton, albeit with a non-significant 2-point lead.

Time for Hillary to give a speech at Constitution Hall on Guns and Pennsylvania vacation trips.
