Am I crazy that I'd rather have four more years of Bill than four years of this?
While we're here talking about the Democratic nomination: Didn't everyone know a month ago that the primary sequence had a bunch of Obama-friendly states followed by some Clinton-friendly states? It seems like there's been a lot of overreaction both directions, by people who either didn't realize this or didn't remember to account for it.
It's the political equivalent of overrating a team that built up a big winning streak against cupcakes, then underrating the same team right after it lost to a division leader.
