"The campaign charter planes are like sealed chambers of airborne disease."
I was thinking the other day about how both campaigns seem to struggling -- internally, not even against each other. Obama is facing media backlash, his people are pulling some childish bullshit, and Hillary...whatever the fuck that was. (And Heather Mills? Seriously? I worry about Hillary. She's smart and funny and kind of obviously the most kickass potential president ever on the face of the Earth -- at least till Roslin gets here, at which point they will get drunk together and airlock people just for fun. But she has like no concept whatsoever of what people are thinking.)
Anyway, the New York Times thinks they all just need a nap. I didn't even realize what a long-ass primary season this has been till they pointed it out, and then:
“The other campaigns seemed really long and tough when I was doing them, but now I look back and it was like a jog around the park, compared to some intense triathlon,” said Jake Tapper, a senior national correspondent for ABC News. “I still don’t know when it’s going to end. I still think it’s entirely possible it’s not going to end until Denver” — where the Democratic convention will be held in late August.
August. God. We all just need a nap. (Also, for
furies, from the Times article: "In Ohio on Valentine’s Day, Mrs. Clinton phoned several reporters’ girlfriends from her plane to 'personally apologize' for their boyfriends’ absence." Love! Why am I not dating one of those reporters? HOW CAN WE GET ON THAT PLANE?)PS - Richard Milhous Obama.
