Larry Kudlow says it’s over (h/t: Kevin Stolarick):
Please allow me a dose of hardened market realism concerning Obama’s landslide
victory in Wisconsin. The race is over. Hillary is finished. The Clinton
Restoration is over. President Bill Clinton’s political invincibility is over.
Hillary’s electability is over.Obama got to the far Left faster than she did. He out organized her in the precincts. He out fundraised her. He out speechified her. He out-hustled her. He out-dressed her. He out-presidentialed her. He outdid her and he outbid her for votes, one promised government check at a time.
A 15-point margin in Wisconsin is incredible. Wisconsin is a lot
like Ohio except for the wacko ultra-Left Madison college population, which is
even worse that Columbus’s Ohio State. But there are so many campuses in Ohio
that will go for Obama that it is no matter. Think faculty voters, grimly
determined for a left-wing takeover of America ” from the bottom up” to use the
former Saul Alinsky community organizer’s phrase. As goes Wisconsin, so goes
Ohio.
Ouch. That guy sure can write. I taught for three years at Ohio State. Woody Hayes was on the faculty … talk about “wacko” (wink, wink) …
Question: When did professors become a critical voting block?

As far as the “Fat Lady Singing” it did seem well appropriate that the Hillary campaign held their Wisconsin “victory” party at Rock Bottom… That is some bad planning.

I rather enjoyed the first half of the post, till he mentions the Buckeyes, that is.

Snappy writing, but it’s a sad commentary that he can talk about middle of the road policies as “Far Left” and get away with it. I’m not sure what he means in this context — balancing the budget, providing health care, not invading Iran?
