Pursuing Holiness

As far as I’m concerned - as far as my political ideals and goals go - this election has already been lost. Even if McCain wins, and in some respects, especially if McCain wins, conservatives have lost. He’s not all bad, but we are talking about the man who orchestrated the biggest hit on free speech in American history. We’re talking about the man who doesn’t care about our sovereignty and will eagerly open the borders in spite of all the evidence on how harmful unrestrained immigration is. A vote for McCain is a vote to move the GOP further left and to make it even less representative for conservatives than it is already.

So at this point, the only consolation I have is the enjoyment I’m getting from watching the Democrats self-destruct. And let me tell you, the closer we get to the Democratic Convention, the more popcorn I’m eating. This article is a great example.

In this campaign, Hillary Clinton, often as not, has been on the good side of a double standard.

Do you really think a male candidate who wept publicly while lamenting how hard campaigning is, how it makes you fat, would have lasted another day?

Here’s a fact you hear surprisingly little about in the media: The delegate and electoral math are so bad for Hillary Clinton that she can’t win the nomination. Can’t, that is, unless she stokes such a firestorm of controversy and discontent around Obama that a mass of superdelegates swings to her at the last minute.

In other words, the only way she can win is to tarnish her party’s likely nominee, foment a conflagration, and hand the advantage in the fall election to the party of George W. Bush.

If, say, John Edwards were pursuing a path that selfish and destructive, do you think he’d be getting off as easy as Hillary Clinton?
