Tomorrow: another "make or breaK"

The conventional (no pun intended) wisdom thinking chatter is that tomorrow's primaries in North Carolina and Indiana will either put paid to Hillary Clinton, or give her new ammunition to use with the superdelegates, or not. Uh....

Here's a smidgen of good news. Haynes Johnson is going to write a book about the 2008 (or is it 2007-2008, or 1992-2008?) campaign. There will surely be a large number of hacks and hucksters coming to market with their screed, so I'm glad to know that someone of Johnson's caliber will be out there. Let's hope he will do some serious unpacking of the incredible dissonances -- cultural, sociological, ontological -- that have emerged in the Democratic race.

A friend of mine and I were talking the other night about what a good historian might ultimately be able to tell us. Johnson isn't a historian, obviously, but he's a damned fine journalist. For history's verdict, we'll have to wait awhile.

I -- an espresso-drinking, Ivy-educated, affluent woman -- am unabashedly a Hillary supporter. I support her because I believe she will make, by far, the better president. And I'm not going to argue with anyone here, or anywhere else, about that. At this stage of the game, there's hardly any point. But it probably does explain why I'm ferklempt.
