<p>The US economy is in free fall, and what is on the lips of the punditocracy &#8212; You Betcha &#8211; Hillary Rodham Clinton.  With Sarah Palin off witnessing the prepping of turkey&#8217;s for Thanksgiving, the real turkeys are once again back to their female target of choice.  Nobody seems to remember Keith Olbermann declaring Clinton hit a grand slam during the Democratic Convention, the numerous people thanking her for her support of Barack Obama, or her continued push towards getting 60 democratic senators elected to the US Senate.   All they seem to remember is that Hillary Clinton is a person you should attack!</p>
<p>I want to make one point before I let you click the obsessions for yourself &#8212; there is a continued amnesiac approach to Barack Obama.   In 2002, when Barack Obama made his speech against war with Iraq, he was not in the US Senate.   Nobody knows how he would have voted!   To speculate that he would vote against it, is quite childish in light of his voting for the FISA bill in July.  The media though continues to spin this anti-Iraq war speech, as if it was his vote in the Senate, and continue to use this to club Senator Hillary Clinton.  Many people need to get off the Obama juice as the campaign is over, and start focusing on letting Obama pick the people he feels he needs to help him run the country.</p>
<p>Oh, BTW &#8212; Congrats to Madame Secretary Clinton</p>
