Obama/ Hillary - The warm-up will wear them out!
In my school days in Dharwad, a town from Karnataka, India, we would have these annual school sports meet. I do not have much powers when it comes to athletics but participate I had to. So when my 100 meters dash heats were to start, I would pump out, do brisk running on the spot, do stretches, leg curls and so on, all in front of the cute chicks who were watching the events. 100% sure that all eyes were on me, I would do five to six repeats and really lay it on the cute lasses. And when it was time for 'on your mark, get set, Go!", I realized that the warm-up had worn me out, my stamina reserve had gone and sadly, I trailed well behind the second last person. I see this same thing happening with the Dems primaries.

The race is between a black and a white, gender of Hillary is not relevant when it comes to fighting against a black. A white woman is equivalent to a white man. Now wonders of wonders, this black man has managed to get the better of a white, at least in all the primaries to date. The white is blind to the fact that she has lost and will not give up the fight till the bitter end and in the meanwhile, the Dems spend immense amount of money, wash dirty laundry in the public, make things very easy for McCain as he can pick up speeches from both these contenders and plan his strategy and all the while, the stamina of Dems is running out. When it comes to the big fight, will the person left standing be able to do justice to the nomination, with half a Dem population barking at him? Whoever wins this battle need to understand that there is a big war ahead in the form of a general election when the whole of US will vote?

Now this Lady whom so many Women’s Lib organizations are supporting have to realize that Hillary is here because she is the wife of Bill Clinton. This is dynasty politics at a global scale. Would she have had this chance unless she is the wife of Bill? So she puts up with Bills cheating by making a devils pact. Would US be safe with a person of such a mindset?

Members of women’s organization are highly intelligent, have successful careers and many of them have clawed their way to the top, very few had a powerful husband as a backer. So in effect, these women of steel are blinding themselves to this facade and supporting Hillary beacuse she is a woman who represents no one but her own hunger for power.

So the primaries circus goes on and on while the contenders wear themselves to the dust, Obama keeps punching and Hillary does not go down.. Senator Clinton should quit, conserve her stamina and live to fight another day. But the stick doesn’t break the rope does not tear.
