Hillary
Clinton was handed a lifeline last night after George W Bush came out firmly on
the side of Barack Obama.
"This
could be Hillary's last chance!!!",
screamed one commentator against the roar of a crashing waterfall here in New
Hampshire, last night.
A
website claimed that George W Bush referred to Obama as 'the leading light of
his generation', 'an incredible man', 'a true American', 'brilliant golfer', "fantastic
father', 'considerate husband', 'the best person for the job' and 'he's a guy
I'd go hunting with'.
On
the same website Bush appeared to refer to Hillary Clinton as a "cow".
"Full
and unequivocal support from the most unpopular president in living memory is
now the only thing that is stopping Obama from being selected to run for president
in 2008", this according to a guy we sit next to on the train to work every
morning.
Our
commuter buddy continues:
"Any
Republican candidate is pretty much a comedy candidate for 2008, so let's hope
they go for a guy who would be the oldest president at the start of his term in
history, John McCain." (For an embarrassing video of him telling a joke with
the punch line 'Bomb Iran' go here).
An
expert in elections emailed us to say: "If Bush were to declare war on Hillary
now that could be her only chance."
