This primary season is becoming fascinating day by day. One thing that fascinates me is the complete bafflement which Clintons seem to express at Hillary's inability to connect with the voting public. Its almost as if they are being denied their birth right. First it would be the husband, then the wife and when both are ready to go probably the daughter would carry on the great Clinton name.
Coming from India and the disgust that Gandhi family still evokes in me, this whole drama doesn't look very alien to me. Cross over into Pakistan and you see the Bhutto drama. The woman had a will which said that her husband should take over the party in case anything happened to her. What wonderful way to express your trust in democracy for which you supposedly sacrificed your life!!! Thank you for taking out whatever sympathy I felt for your loss of life.
Coming back to the Clintons, I think they are either supremely naive or just hopelessly arrogant. The comeback kid of yesterday, Bill Clinton, is saying things of such colossal nonsense that sometimes you end up wondering what you just heard was something that came out of Bill's mouth. I have heard Clinton numerous times on TV and had the opportunity to hear him in person once. I had immense respect for his ability to articulate really difficult concepts and rally people behind a good cause. All that is gone with the wind. What you see now are a pair of old whining arrogant couple who would stoop to any level to get Hillary in White House. She started crying yesterday because people won't understand how much personal it is for her to become president!!! I have only one thing to say. I am happy that I am in America and I don't have to go through the same old ugly stinking disgust that would have unfolded in India and Pakistan. This is America Baby...This is America...Crying and Whining and Shouting won't stick here!!!
