Bar & Hils revisited
Not to add more oil to the fire but I had the luck to see and hear Hillary and Barack 12 hours apart or so, back to back, and the reports seem right... She is getting energized and he is getting winded.
While he is lively, likeable, humorous, she is impressive with facts and ideas, impeccable delivery, unfaltering for 45 minutes straight, while he meanders and is (was then) looking for words.
No doubt, everyone gets tired and you could not pay me to have their lives.
But, could the wind be turning, indeed? Experience showing in terms of resiliency and pure physical stamina?
Worrisome.
Especially, as in the meantime, Johnny boy is just whistling Dixie, peacefully waiting for the end of the duel to the death, to take on the survivor. And yet,he looked rather tired and showing his age on the news (I have not seen him in the flesh, true).
If Bar is stumbling now, that is not going to be an easy road to November... And count on the unknown and little spoken fact that some, if not many people, will indeed come out of the woodwork to vote against him for reasons that have nothing to do with talent, brains, abilities, or charisma.
In the North Carolina race for senator between Jesse Helms and Harvey Gantt, with Gantt given as the favorite, he lost to one of the most narrow-minded and most powerful incumbent senators of the twentieth-century, just because in the polls people would not dare state that they'd never vote for the Black man. So, they came out in droves to re-elect Jesse, who belonged to a century that preceded the twentieth. Things may have changed, yes, and Bar has the charisma, yeap, but it will take more than that to win it all, and Hils is a toughie, and a survivor.
Again,she was "impressive", and Bar was not. Shame...
I don't dare say "What a race!" because too much is at stake, and this is not just a soap opera or a boxing match expected to just generate a show and excitement for couch potatoes with their six-packs, and yet, this is America, where we water down, trivialize, and sweat everything!...
