you know the story of the prisoner who promised to teach the king's dog to talk?

he was sentenced to death but he got a reprieve for one year because that is the time he asked for to teach the king's dog to talk.

another prisoner says:  that's crazy, you'll never teach a dog to talk!

the first prisoner responds:  a lot of things can happen in a year - the king could die, the dog could, or I could die.  hell, the dog might even learn to talk!

the same thing holds for political campaigns.

So Clinton will win when pigs fly? Well, much like the existence of the Invisible Sky Giant, I can't falsify that claim.

maybe someone will find out something really terrible about Obama or Michelle Obama will be photographed holding up a bank -  something weird and unexpected will happen  - you never know what the future holds

I admire Clinton for fighting so tenaciously.  It's what the Dems need in a President.  

Unfortunately, I think Bill Clinton is coming down with Alzheimer's.  It happens  a lot in people with heart disease.

Isn't that originally a mullah Nasrudin story?

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.
