The Glob Mis-Explains It for You Once Again!
From the (alleged) Political Intelligence column of the Boston Glob comes speculation about the possiblity of genuine, brokered conventions -
Mr. (?) Rhee - it isn't the REPUBLICANS who are looking at the political nightmare of having to justify Hillary Clinton as the Party's Official Nominee and Philosophical Standard Bearer!
Rudy Giuliani is leading in the national polls, but is followed closely by Fred Thompson. John McCain appears to be resurging. And Mitt Romney, while fourth in most national surveys, is leading in Iowa and New Hampshire. (Glob Chagrin!)
On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton is well ahead in the polls and could wrap up the nomination well before the Democratic convention next August in Denver. So Judis says that if Republicans can't settle on their nominee until the convention, that could help Democrats, who would have a head start in coalescing around their standard-bearer.
"It's the Republicans, not the Democrats, who are looking at a political nightmare in 2008," he writes.

I'll take John McCain to win.
I would think the Democratic Party would change its name so that history wouldn't have Hillary listed as their front runner for president. The only problem would be calling them by their rightful name, The Socialist Party or even the National Socialists Party; but honesty has never been their strong suit so Labor Party might come in one day or Progressive Labor Party.
If Hilldebeast gets her crown it might become a moot point. Queen Hilldebeast's palace instead of the White House, no, this can't be.
