$10 million for Hillary and where does this go from here?

Thursday, 24th April 2008

Hillary Clinton’s ability to raise ten million dollars online in the 24 hours after her win in Pennsylvania is testament both to how the internet is transforming political fund-raising and how committed her hardcore supporters remain. (I still expect, though, that Obama will continue to comfortably out raise her.) Indeed, for Hillary the good news just seems to keep coming at the moment with Rev Wright choosing to do several media events, reviving the controversy over his relationship with Obama again.

Having said this, it is Obama who remains the overwhelming favourite to win the nomination. But for the sake of his general election chances he needs to finish this and fast because the longer the process goes on the more his political vulnerabilities, which I detail in this week’s magazine, are being exposed.

Not to mention that if she brushed her hair forward she would look like Boris.

As Taki reports this week, Hillary Clinton has pledged to nuke Iran if it threatens Saudi Arabia, Kuwait or the United Arab Emirates, which first alone has given the Clintons eighteen million dollars and counting. Yet these are the countries that are holding the West to ransom.

Where nuclear matters are concerned, our response to them should be our own civil nuclear power programme, not providing them with a shield of nuclear weapons against a country which not only has none of its own, but has no cause or desire to attack Saudi Arabia, Kuwait or the United Arab Emirates. Clinton is despicably putting into people’s heads the idea that Iran might wish to do such a thing, on absolutely no basis whatever.

Americans, if Clinton is the nominee, then please vote for McCain.
