Some say Hillary Clinton found her voice and it's republican (h/t Oliver Willis).

Well, now we know why Hillary Clinton has gone into Karl Rove territory with her "he's not fit to lead" attacks against Obama : She wants to be on the top of the ticket.

This from CBSTV :

NEW YORK (CBS) ― Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton hinted at the possibility of a Democratic "dream ticket" with Sen. Barack Obama.

Speaking on "The Early Show" on CBS, Clinton said "that may be where this is headed, but of course we have to decide who is on the top of the ticket."

Clinton said the race between her and Obama remains "incredibly close," with just "smidgens of difference" between them in both the popular vote and number of delegates.

Unbelievable. She will do what it takes to be in the Oval Office, no matter the consequences.

If this is dirty politics at its worse, I don't know what is. And what's worse, the DNC is all behind the effort.

Last night on CNN both Donna Brazille and Paul Begala basically said the same thing : A long and protracted fight is good for them because it's getting more Democrats into state rosters --something they have been able to do in about 20 years. So for them these newly minted Democrats are payoff for the all out war Clinton is waging.

More interesting was Begala's comment : Bill Clinton did the same thing in 1992. He kept on losing but stuck it out until June of 1990 --and he won the nomination. Begala then went on the say : And that's good because if it worked for Bill it will work for Hillary ... and of course Obama.

If I find the clip, I'll post it.
