What fresh hell is hillary up to?
Her speech after the nc primaries was bizarre in it's tone, half victorious, half sounding like a concession speech.

Then she comes out the next morning, kinda chipper, but not quite her old, cackling self. hil then hightails it up to wv all manic and exuberant again.

Diane Fienstein wants to have a "chat" with hil to see what's up, then later that evening feinstein is back on the billary bandwagon.

wolfie is out on the media trail decrying hil is takin' it to denver and she will be the nominee. You see, he's decided they can add the puerto rican popular vote to hil's vote totals and then when you add all her delegates from mi and fla, they have a real shot. Needless to say tweety was incredulous with these notions and finally cracked himself and laughed directly in the face of the wolf huckster.

So, what's hil got up her sleeve?

1. What did Baghdad Bob have up his sleeve?
Answer that, and you have answered your own question.

11. Reported yesterday in the la times....
feinstein was quoted as saying she has called hil to meet with her and wants to ask her to "show me your plan." This morning on msnbc, it was reported that she and hil did indeed speak by phone and she is still sticking with hil.

3. She wants to weaken him as much as possible imo, then wait for 2012.
I tremble at the thought of having to go through this again with her.

10. Even Harold Ford said this was quite possible
she knows she can't win, and if she's still in on Wednesday, it's probabale.

6. Let's not disparage people with that disease
There are long periods of being rational and I have never seen her rational.

8. You will probably read about it on Drudge Report...
Then it will break on the main stream media and be looped endlessly on the 24/7 cable news channels.

12. I heard they met or talked yesterday; Clinton
assuaged Feinstein's concerns and presented enough of an argument to stay in that Feinstein bought it. That's all I know.

14. Her most priceless comment the day after the ....
in nc primaries "I would already be the nominee if we were going by republican rules".
Another one of those moments from the campaign brought to you by the hillary for president because you owe it to me dammit traveling circus side show.

15. The fresh hell is "archie bunker won't vote for a negro".
Rephrased in various forms and suitably disguised. Trotted out by all the usual suspects. Plus of course the goalposts are now some odd wavering spectral thing, one doesn't have to know what the goalposts actually are anymore, they are the pillars through which Her Inevitableness will stride through triumphantly on her way to the 2012 nomination.
