Drudge Report: NEW YORK PAPER CALLS ON HILLARY TO RESIGN "Had she any shame, she would resign." With those words Wednesday morning, the New York Observer -- newspaper of record to Manhattan's intelligensia -- became the first major publication to suggest that the corruption now coming to light in the Clintons' pardons-for-cash scandal makes it untenable for Hillary Rodham Clinton to continue serving as New York State's junior U.S. Senator. "With the nation and indeed the world watching, we (New Yorkers) entrusted her with the U.S. Senate seat once held by Robert F. Kennedy and Daniel Patrick Moynihan," the Observer says in its scathing editorial this week. "It is clear now that we have made a terrible mistake, for Hillary Rodham Clinton is unfit for elective office. Had she any shame, she would resign. If federal officeholders were subject to popular recall, she'd be thrown out of office by springtime, the season of renewal." The paper warns that the Clintons are banking on the short memories of the electorate; that even now Bill and Hillary are plotting their return to respectability -- biding their time till the latest scandal blows over and they can return to power. "Only two months ago, serious people believed that Mrs. Clinton would be a candidate for President in 2004." Now, says the Observer, even the Clintons' staunchest supporters must realize those hopes have been "relegated to history's dustbin." But, the liberal weekly warns, "They have fooled the public before. They believe they can do so again.... And so it will be up to New York, finally, to foil the calculations of this coarse and manipulative couple." Hehe

Wanna put a little coin on whether Daschle is re-elected to the Senate from S.D. the next time he runs? I say he is. My biggest beef with the GWB tax-cut plan isn't that it gives so much to the richest of the rich (which it does). My biggest beef is that it gives so little to the hard-working individuals who tote a lunch box to work every day. Dubya wants a $40,000 break for the grandchildren of beer barons whose main activity in life is to buy Corvettes and get in trouble with the law. Oh, yes, there's also a couple hundred bucks for the working men and women of America. That'll buy a few months worth of gas for their pickup trucks or '88 Dodge Shadows. As an aside, after watching last night's GWB speech, it became apparent to me that the new leader of the Democrtic Party will not be Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Dick Gephardt or Tom Daschle. Joe Lieberman will lead the party in '02 and '04.
