Is President Clinton Serious?

It looks like President Clinton and the HRC campaign have come up with a new reason that they're losing - a vast left wing conspiracy led by the media, Moveon.org, and other liberal groups. He's claiming that since March 4th, the college educated elites have been pushing her out of the race by suppressing her supporters and minimizing her momentum. He's basically saying that the upper class Obama supporters are holding down the poor, working class white folks.

This new excuse from the HRC campaign shows just how desperate they are becoming. Rather than accept the primary results in a dignified manner, they're now clinging to whining, finger pointing, and conspiracy theories. Through their sophomoric tactics, they've become the liberal version of George Bush. The Clinton campaign has regressed into the combative, personal attack driven campaign that is usually seen from the Republican attack machine (a machine that is in full force against Obama). It's disappointing to see this from a Democrat.

The frustrating part of all of this is the damage which the campaign is inflicting on the Democratic Party and on the liberal movement that has been sweeping across the country within the past few years. At this rate, the Clinton campaign will have sucked the life out of all the momentum that Democrats saw in 2006, with the worst case being an Obama loss in November. At this point, however, I wonder if HRC is even concerned about the party's fate beyond her own personal interest.
