“The means of defense against foreign danger historically have become the instruments of tyranny at home.” — James Madison

I just read on cnn.com that Hillary Clinton believes she is leading the popular vote in the Democratic Primary.  According to the article she leads if Michigan and Florida’s votes were counted, but the Democratic Party voided their votes because both states held their primaries earlier than allowed.  Barack Obama wasn’t even on the ballot in Michigan.  Obama leads in the all important delegate vote 1,719 to 1,586. 

I wrote in my blog that it was sad how much Hillary is clinging to her campaign.  It’s gotten to the point where she is simply whining in the hopes that people feel sorry for her and give her more votes.  Evem though her campaign has displayed plenty of “dirty” ads against Obama, she complains when his campaign fights back with a low blow of their own.  Her knew “argument” is that she’s more electable because she has won the swing states necessary even though there is no way to correlate the Democratic Primary results with how people will vote in the General Election. 

Frankly, I’m sick of Hillary Clinton at this point.  I’m sick of her excuses and her stubborness.  I’m sick of the way the media is feeding into this battle between the Democrats when we are at a time in our country’s history when we need people to be working together for common goals.  This campaign is displaying Hillary’s true character.  Which to me is that of a vain, self-centered woman who is looking to indulge her own ego instead of thinking of the best interests of the Democratic Party or the American people.
