Soy Hillary

Be honest: Do you really care that Jimmy Carter kinda-sorta-almost endorsed Obama?

Even Carter couldn’t be bothered to make it official. Maybe he didn’t want to be yet another former Democratic president trying to inject his has-been self into the primary season (blog to Bill: go home and bake some cookies).

Or perhaps it was recognition that his endorsement wouldn’t make a peanut-sized bit of difference to Obama’s crucial youth vote. Didn’t Carter lose the presidency almost a decade before most of the 700,000 college students in Pennsylvania were even born?

As for the rest of those pesky superdelegates, they’re going to vote for whoever they think will win (hey, everyone likes to back a winner) or whoever they think will help them get re-elected or whoever they think will deliver the most pork to their district.

While she may not be a Skinny Bitch, Clinton was recently outed in Slate Magazine as an avid snacker of the soy-based meatless Boca Burgers. If Clinton is smart, she’ll ditch the pork and go after the millions of veggie voters in the US.

“Soy Hillary” may very well be her next campaign slogan.
