Chris Matthews is SORRY

You've seen by now. But in any case, we have a problem. The old dog of the new network feels as though he's been tarnished. Going forward, we expect more tacit apologies in the form of sudden pronouncements. Bottom line: His cred has been questioned and in his attempts at redressing it, his cred is in question.

Bill Clinton Is PISSED

He's smart, right? So lashing out at the press in a calculated way (5 times the vote anyone?) is obviously calculated. This means (1) there is some daylight for camp HRC to muddy the waters and pit union v union (don't know enough about that to say whether it's wise or not), or; (2) they want to call the viability of the process into question before the results are in, meaning that the old CW (conventional wisdom) is true and the CW (Culinary Workers) endorsement is as dispositive as they had said.

Our bet is with the latter, after all, it wasn't but 5 days ago that we were warned that CW leadership was openly split as to Obama/Clinton. After all of this, are they still? Did Bill Clinton think they would be, and if not, why go after them?

Things we've been meaning to say

To start, the Democratic debates, Nevada that is. When asked what your greatest weakness is, you should always make sure to have a ready answer in mind. Here's what won't do: "I care sooo hard that sometimes people and their feelings get in the way and that causes problems"; "Having been born of mill villages, it's hard for me to find my way in your modern society". Sloppiness, of course, is always welcome. This is dated. We know.

We Are Back

Sorry fan, we know it's been some time, but our heads and hearts are in order. Consider this a warning shot.
