You know what makes me afraid? I mean besides the terrible knowledge that someday pegged leg acid washed jeans will come back in style? I'm afraid of Hillary running for President in 2008. What the hell is she thinking? Like we haven't suffered enough? She's going to buck for the Democratic nomination and we're going to get stuck with whatever Bible thumping, corporate ass kissing lamebrain the GOP puts on their ticket. Doesn't Hillary realize how despised she is? She's half the reason the fucking GOP tried to crucify her husband! The Righties HATE Hillary! If she runs for the White House I double damn guarantee that the hatchet job done on John Kerry will look like a love tap. Karl Rove pops a boner thinking about Hillary running for President. The muck! The innuendo! The whipping of the Evangelicals into such a frothy fury that Jesus could stage a comeback and they'd mow right over Him in their lust to nail Hillary to the cross. This Holy Roller shit has been decades in the making. There's almost 3 generations between the current Bitching Baptists and the last moral crusaders to tear into the soft belly of America- the Commie Haters. If Hillary thinks enough backlash against the "Do it OUR way because Jesus said so!" crowd will build between now and 2007 to get her into the White House, she is sadly mistaken. Wolf will be in high school before enough people have their rights trampled, before enough of the usually do-nothing/care-nothing folks have their lives infringed upon by the 'moralizers', before enough regular citizens are sufficiently strangled by the ever encroaching demands of the Religious Right before there will be any kind of serious rescue attempt of the Constitution. A whole new generation of kids will have to come of age under the repressive hypocritical hatefulness of the Bullying Bible Boys before the rest of us have a chance at regaining some sanity in government. It's always the young. The Boomers broke out. Turned the world upside-down to get some breathing room. The poor kids who will come of age in the next decade or so are the ones who will stand up. Smothered under the dictatorial demands of the Great Moral Watchdogs, they will reach a breaking point and scream for change. They will march for it. They will demand to be heard above the sermonizing and the self-righteous fatuousness of the status quo. The day will come. It's as inevitable as the tides. But not in 2007. Not this soon. Not this candidate. Hillary is a lightning rod for the bitterness and vengefulness of the Right. The Cons will marshal forces of stupendous arrogance and stupidity to bring Hillary down. And you know what? I do NOT want to head into my 50's with another 8 years of senseless war, fiscal irresponsibility, and public schools held hostage to small minded flat Earthers and the utter imbecility of teaching to the test. I do not want to have to muddle through until the Change of Life knowing my ONLY option for birth control is keeping my legs shut 26 days out of every 30. I want these motherfuckers OUT of my library, my mailbox, my newspaper, my TV, my doctor's office, and my bedroom. The only way the Democrats will win back the White House is to run someone with some balls. And while Hillary has some big brassy ones, her history and her gender will nigh on guarantee another GOP win in 2008. The Dems need to find their own John McCain. Someone with backbone and intelligence. Someone with class enough to rise above the fray and someone with guts enough to tell these latter-day Puritans to fuck off. For the sake of all of us who need a break from the crass, polluting, money grubbing, war mongering sideshow barkers who wave a New Testament and get the yokels to riot with pitchforks and torches against uppity faggots and lezbos and ignore the reality of our shattered economy, our bankrupted schools, and our downward spiraling middle class, please Hillary, please don't run for President. Don't let your ambition doom us to another 4-8 years of ass reaming. Keep your hat out of the ring and give us a real shot at regaining our freedom. Thanks, ~LA PS: You can keep the Senate seat for as long as you want. Okay?
