M. Dowd: On the Clinton "Two-headed monster's" unseemly machinations

If Bill Clinton has to trash his legacy to protect his legacy, so be it. If he has to put a dagger through the heart of hope to give Hillary hope, so be it.

If he has to preside in this state as the former first black president stopping the would-be first black president, so be it.

The Clintons — or “the 2-headed monster,” as the The New York Post dubbed the tag team that clawed out wins in New Hampshire and Nevada — always go where they need to go, no matter the collateral damage. Even if the damage is to themselves and their party.

Bill’s transition from elder statesman, leader of his party and bipartisan ambassador to ward heeler and hatchet man has been seamless — and seamy.

After Bill’s success trolling the casinos on the Las Vegas Strip, Hillary handed off South Carolina and flew to California and other Super Tuesday states. The Big Dog relished playing the candidate again, wearing a Technicolor orange tie and sweeping across the state with the mute Chelsea.

He tried to convey the impression that they were running against The Man, and with classic Clintonian self-pity, grumbled that Barack Obama had all the advantages.

Better a two-headed monster than a monstrous half-wit like Bush.

but fortunately we have two other strong viable alternatives in the primaries.

She's hated Bill and Hillary, and made quite a profit doing so, for many years.

what has she done?

If she is in favor of your candidate - then she is wonderful....

BUT if she's not, she will stop at no expense to trash the others.

Drama, drama and more drama from modo.

has she made an endorsement? I hadn't heard about that if she has.

personally I don't like what's happening in the Clinton campaign ... and she touches on some of the reasons.

but mostly I'm totally turned off by the prospect of continuing the already quarter-century-old Bush/Clinton Dynasty,
but this is not even among my main reasons for supporting Edwards.

Not much diff~
