Hillary Clinton on Saturday Night Live

Go read “Killer Death Robots!” FIRST. This is just ephemera and frippery.

Yeah. Not content with one massive freebie campaign contribution, NBC ups the ante with ANOTHER little “cameo” hoping to influence Tuesday’s primaries in Texas, Ohio, Rhode Island and Vermont. There was even blog traffic from the news blogs that Hillary had ‘mysteriously’ missed her flight to Texas for yet another campaign appearance. Senator Clinton has all the spontaneity of a glacier, of course.

Evidently, six or seven hours of makeup later:

Almost watched it. But last week’s sexist propaganda left me nauseous enough that my wife and I ended the evening by watching (again) V for Vendetta on HBO instead, which is, increasingly, more apt fare than watching a spoiled, pampered, privileged, blonde White Barbie™ Chick from Wellesley College (one of the “Seven Sisters”) and Yale Law School whining about how she’s not being treated fairly because the media covers her shrill, whining meltdown in less than flattering terms.

This after legendarily bullying the SAME press when her campaign was in a position to do so.

When the history of this campaign is written, it will be noted that rarely in American history has a campaign with the massive advantages that Sen. Clinton’s had managed to be so incredibly ineptly and, finally, self-pityingly run into the ground without any help whatsoever from the opposition.

With any luck at all, our country won’t end up being run the same way for four self-indulgent years.

The pterodactyls have left the building.

Courage.

UPDATE: With all the profound and portentious issues facing us, THIS is what the blogosphere has deemed the most important, burning issue of the day. Our geist is extremely near-zeited, evidently. In my capacity as a fully qualified Poptometrist, I’d diagnose it as “ME”-opic in the extreme.

UPDATE II, Monday 7:45 AM PST: The Los Angeles Times has now written the article predicted above (“When the history of this campaign is written …”) Some prophet; little loss.
