Speaking of the Clintons' cunning plan, just look at this bombshell in the Sunday Telegraph:

Further confrontations with both Clintons are inevitable. Indeed, The Sunday Telegraph has learned that Bill Clinton will play a bigger role in his wife's Hillary's election campaign than her vice presidential running mate if she wins the Democratic nomination, .

In late night strategy sessions Mr and Mrs Clinton have decided together that the former president will stay in the spotlight for the rest of the primary campaign and then in the general election.

One Clinton camp figure familiar with discussions in her inner circle told The Sunday Telegraph: "WJC [William Jefferson Clinton] is going to be there from now on. Bill's doing what running mates normally do; he's acting as the lightning rod. Whoever is the running mate will have to get used to the idea that he is in the lead.

"Just as, when she's president, whoever is her secretary of state will have to deal with the fact that Bill can just get on the phone to Gordon Brown and go to Britain and ask him to help out on an issue. That's a fact of life."

So now "Billary" is official. Could Republicans ask for better news? Who in his right mind would want to fill the VP slot on that double-headed ticket?

Obama talks about the audacity of hope. The Clintons should just talk about the audacity of audacity. Sheesh. I think the Democratic natives are going to get very restless ere long.
