NYT to Hillary: Stop winning and give up already!

Posted 23 Apr 2008 in 2008 election, Hillary Clinton, media bias

Hillary95Never mind that “inconclusive” 10% victory in Pennsylvania last night. And never mind the fact that they actually endorsed Hillary (kinda like how they “endorsed” McCain, I guess). The editors of the New York Times are complaining that the Dem bloodletting has to stop, democracy be damned.

The Pennsylvania campaign, which produced yet another inconclusive result on Tuesday, was even meaner, more vacuous, more desperate, and more filled with pandering than the mean, vacuous, desperate, pander-filled contests that preceded it.

Voters are getting tired of it; it is demeaning the political process; and it does not work. It is past time for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton to acknowledge that the negativity, for which she is mostly responsible, does nothing but harm to her, her opponent, her party and the 2008 election.
[...]
It is getting to be time for the superdelegates to do what the Democrats had in mind when they created superdelegates: settle a bloody race that cannot be won at the ballot box.

Wow, that’s rich. Never mind what the voters want, let the party’s elite tell them what’s best for them.

Are Hillary’s supporters “tired” of the race? I think not. The NYT simply sees that the Democrat dirty tactics and vitriol usually reserved for Republican opponents is doing damage to the Dem party, and they’re probably scared that the more time voters have to examine Obama beyond his populist smokescreen, the less likely they’ll be to vote for such a stealth extremist.

Neal Boortz opines:

“We have handsome and glib young man with no accomplishments to his name beyond college. We have a candidate who pays homage to terrorists and seeks their support in his early political campaigns, and who now preaches the doctrine of surrender in the face of Islamic terrorism.
[...]
People are starting to understand Barack Obama. They’re starting to wonder just how far he has come from his Marxist-worshiping days in school. It takes a lot to make Hillary look good. Perhaps that’s Barack Obama’s greatest accomplishment.”

And the New York Times‘ greatest fear.
