Kingmaker

You just never know who will turn out to be decisive. Reprinted here in full, a salient post from Rising Hegemon:

It is not just going 4 for 4 plus the Virgin Islands, it's getting the "anti-Bush" endorsement.

If everything King Merde touches turns to shit, than the anti-touch has to be good news:

Talking to folks who know Bush well say he just doesn't believe Obama's earned it; that he's worthy. He has a lot more respect for Clinton and apparently would be more comfortable seeing her or McCain as his heir than Obama.

It's like Obama won a goddamned lottery. If I were them I'd be cranking out a commercial about this right frigging now.
