Hillary's attempt at being a regular everyday woman...

so, did you see that Hillary is now at Round 2 of her little "get the public involved in my campaign" shenanigans? (if you missed Round 1...)



while she still doesn't have a song, who wouldn't want to hear the Smash Mouth version of "I'm a Believer" every time Hillary speaks?! (and what's so wrong with the original Monkees version? no Shrek connotations to go along with it?) anyway, i'm glad to see "Ready to Run" got the boot. (why did her campaign staff think a song 'bout running away from relationships was a GOOD idea for a campaign jingle. oh yeah, the title...)

but more importantly, why is this even an issue? getting the public "involved" like this is a sick watering down of what democracy is supposed to be. way to go for picking a non-issue, "safe" way to get press coverage. it's brilliant. too bad it makes me sick. (in addition to the fact that Hillary seems to have no comedic sense, let alone timing. who wrote her script anyway? i assume it's supposed to be funny, but why do i get a gross saccharine feeling when i watch? ewww...)
