Dead heat on a merry go round......

What it is, or what it seems t' be is a dead heat on a merry go round...Old movie title for those of you who don't already know...one 'a those crime/caper flix out'a the sixties (better title than movie but seems to fit the Demo race for the glory.)

Lemme see if I c'n figger out the score....Hilla-ree won Penn to help close the gap 'tween her & young Obama but his supporters claim it ain't gonna make a difference...y'know, it's the old if the glove don't fit you must acquit spin on the process.....The pundits have it all figgered out in advance, how it's gonna end up in June as a dead heat when someone (consensus: Hillary) needs to cry Uncle & give up...

At the moment, the prevailing view seems to be that if Hillary were to somehow pull off a win, all the black supporters of Obama would cry "Foul!" & split the Dem party....Blood in the streets is how one pundit parsed it. 

Of course, if Obama gets the nod, all the female supporters of Clinton would......well, I dunno what they'd do.  I'm pretty sure they wouldn't go to war over it but they might vote for McCain...or not.  Might not vote at all.  Maybe just stay home & sulk.  Either way, there's enuff interference on the track that my bet's on McCain.  He may be an old horse (as MoveOn.Org sez) but I think, like the tortoise, he's got the stuff to beat the wild 'n crazy hares running for the Dems.....

The prevailing winds predict Indiana for Clinton, N.Carolina for Obama.....Oregon & Montana for Obama & Kentucky & WVirginia for Clinton....Yup!  Dead heat.  Only thing I know for purty shore is...Horse players generally die broke......Justin Other Smith
