I mildly prefer Obama to Hillary, for pretty much the reasons given by
Radley Balko and
David Boaz. Nevertheless, I wasn't terribly disappointed by last night's big win for Hillary. Why not? Because politics is most easy to stomach when taken as a form of entertainment. Hillary staying firmly in the race enhances the odds of having a
brokered Democratic Convention, and that will assuredly prove much more exciting than the usual love-fest for the anointed one.
Yeah, if we're going to get a terrible president anyway, we might as well enjoy the show.
ReplyDeleteI'm not as optimistic about Obama as most people seem to be, though.
