As Jim Morrison once sang..."This is the end, my only friend, the end."

For several months (seeming more like years), the primary has felt like a pitched battle. A forced march. I've watched my hair turn gray. I've snapped at those I've loved.

But in the end, it's going to come down to this. There's just no more money in the cupboard...save for that which HRC is lending herself. And this is going to be what drives her off the road.

We have seen many versions of HRC. Sometimes several in 24 hour period. We've been treated to "Stern Hillary," "Scornful Hillary," "Tuzla Warrior Hillary," "Gracious and Conciliatory Hillary," "Pander Bear Hillary," "Undead Hillary," and "Bluecollar Hillary." Now, apparently, we are being treated to "Bull Conners Hillary."

We all knew it was coming. The tentacles of race baiting snaked out of Bill's mouth, Rendell's mouth and Ferraro's mouth. Now, however, I sickens me to report that it is about the only theme left to HRC's campaign. Let's call it like it is. Her last remaining stand is racism. Pure and simple. "No you can't."

Hokey dokey...I saw the future and it's...cough...Lisa Caputo (Senior Analyst for HRC) on...ugh...MSNBC.

It's clear that they are jockeying for the VP. Jockeying hard. Caputo was basically saying, as I hear it, that if Obama wants HRC to go away, he has to "unify the party."

Feeling a sickening feeling in your gut? Irresistable urge to wring hands? Feeling pieces of the sky on your head? You DON'T need to go there. I have the solution for you!!! Read on! Oh...And hey, those with the desire (paid for or otherwise) to cause confusion and disillusion for those in another camp? Watch out, y'all.

It's not often that I diary an article from another blog rather than reporting news or thoughts from my interior. Given that this is the Friday before yet another manic primary weekend however and given the tsunami of cold sweat that has been deluging from the pores of handwringers (and the concern trolls who would heave buckets of cold water and have us believe it was sweat)...I thought that I should refer people to this article at The Field entitled...Boot Camp for Chicken Littles.

I'll make this short. I would make this a comment, however, due to the extraordinary opportunity being offered by The Field, I'm giving this diary status.

Act now!!! For the next 24 hours, we can write to The Field and discuss, our support for our candidate with Deb Kozikowski, an undeclared superdelegate from Massachusetts. This particular blog has been up for several days. Al Giordano, blogger extraordinaire and the guiding light of The Field, sez that this amazing "offer" will be over in 24 hours. (I note that Super Deb is the proprietor of Rural Votes. the home of The Field, as well).

Unfortunately, this is going to be very brief. Sorry. But I thought this item "news" and a step beyond a comment.

Ahem...at any rate. It looks like Obama "lost" Margaret Campbell, the Montana superdelegate. Before your entrails clutch, however, it appears that the endorsement had to be "retracted" due to party rules.

At the same time, however, the same article says that Obama picked up another Montana delegate.

Short diary. I haven't seen it diaried yet but I think it can be very important.

Apparently, in a surprise move, the DNC has stated that they are willing to seat MI and FLA delegates on procedural committess. Of course, a committee like the Credentials Committee can end up being quite substantive, particularly with the way things may be shaping up.

According to Politico, this has taken both campaigns by surprise.

Changes. Changes. Changes. We all know that Daily Kos produces enough income to support several groups of individuals including Kos, extended family, front page diarists and the diarists that make the rec list day after day after day. Apparently, Rupert Murdoch knows this as well because the Walll Street Journal reports that he's entered into negotiations to buy Kos.

Gulp. Apparently, The Rupe says that it would be his intentions not to change the editorial policy all that much. We may not have much choice but to believe him.

I'm posting this short diary so that folks can know some what may be going on in Texas. I'm not trying be an alarmist or to be a handwringer. I don't know what if anything can be done about these types of situations but I did think that as many people should know about this as possible.

Here goes:

This is what I read at The Field

There are apparently HRC dirty tricks happening in San Antonio districts.

I haven't seen these stories discussed yet. But I think they are major. This will be a short diary. I posted it in the Open Diary but...this is big.

OK. The CBS story tonight is HUGE. It really rips Hillary apart on the Bosnia issues and just keeps nailing her. It's brutal. They really take her on. At this point, it's a beautiful dream come true. BUT the best part is at the end.

I normally wouldn't post something like this. But I've been afraid for the health of some Kos participants who seem to be close to hyperventilation regarding some of the recent polls. So consider this an act of compassion.

CBS Poll:: Obama Still on Top Nationally

CBS indicates that Obama has taken a hit but he still leads HRC and McBush.

Just a report from the interior.
Yep. The crisis is past.

But first, a little story. I was once involved in a very bitter dispute with a person with whom there had been a long standing love thing. We were way past being together but suffice it to say, as sometimes happens, we had developed an allergy to each other. We had to keep dealing with each other...but each time another schism occurred, the crevasse got deeper and deeper. It was beginning to eat me up inside but then I realized the way out. It was simple. I declared a unilateral truce. I basically said, no matter where you want to take this, I will not fight no' mo'.
