That statement can mean anything you want it too.

I see why you have it, then.

With the Clintons out of the political spectrum, although they're not really out of the political spectrum (they can still deep-six people), we are entering an political age where there is lots of risk and, I suspect, very little gain, if things continue the way they are.

Perhaps. But what's life with no risks?

Boring.  But we must always keep in mind the possible consequences, something this present generation seems incapable of doing (probably has to do with how they were raised).  Henceforth, my sig.

I must brag for a moment:  my vote for Hillary in the NY primary is looking wiser and wiser as time goes on, but then again I kind of saw this one coming.  There was simply something about Obama's act in SC that didn't smell right to me.

One other point:  All this crap about one side's "fear and attack" machine and another side's "politics of personal destruction" machine is exactly that, a load of crap.  Both Obama, Hillary and McCain are using their attack machines as we speak right now.  The idea that one of these candidates is "above politics" or some other garbage is just that, garbage.

Can you elaborate? I'm not sure I follow.

Well, it's a number of things, but most importantly, his responses to the Clinton's taunting sounded a lot like the "victimization" game.  I understood why he might do that in SC, but it still didn't feel right to me.  Now, it's clear why it didn't sound right to me.  Basically, his whole campaign is based on the "victimization" game.
