It is amazing what desperation will make you do.

Hillary has lost 10 straight primaries and caucuses. She is losing her core demographics to Obama. The polls in Texas show Obama making significant gains. She has to win in a land-slide in both Texas and Ohio to have a chance. And to top it all off, the Teamsters union just endorsed Barrack Obama.

And what does Hillary do when things start going bad? She brings out the negative ads and rhetoric.

Since there is nothing she can do or say to make herself seem like the better candidate, her only recourse is to make Obama look bad. In essence, instead of letting the people know that the Democrats are the party of ideas and change, she instead says that when it comes to Democrats she is the lesser of two evils.

She has established herself, with questionable logic, as the candidate with the most experience. In doing so she cannot possibly be the candidate of change that everyone is looking for.

She has been touting her experience working on healthcare as a plus in her column. Nevermind that she was a failure at changing the healthcare system when she first tried in 1994.

She has said she is the best person to end the war in Iraq. Yet she voted for the war when Obama was standing up against it.

In short, her campaign is faltering and so she is resorting to desperate meassures and it is just making her look even worse.
