Bill Clinton's Selective Memory

Bill Clinton is at it again -- whining about how every body's picking on Hillary -- in his mind she should be the nominee and certain people -- don't know who they are -- are trying to take away her prize. His latest gambit is suggesting that never before have either campaigns or the media suggested that a campaign is over before it's over. Actually, Bill, Mike Huckabee might disagree with you.

But the fact is, in 1992, by mid-April, Clinton's own nomination was being trumpeted. Tim Russert declared that mathematically Jerry Brown had no shot. At this point, even if the majority of delegates were to go to her from the two disputed states, she'd not get close enough to overturn the nomination. As she, had said on numerous occasions, it will be the super delegates who decide this. By and large, they are turning to him, not her. I don't think the trend is going to change.

But if Bill doesn't believe me, let him see this -- from 1992.
