I spent my student days in Pennsylvania, and for the life of me I cannot understand Pennsylvanian logic:

Hillary who made $ 109 million and is a cheapskate calling Obama elitist?

Obama was brought up by a single mother struggling to get education and struggling to give her two children good basic education. Obama had to resort to student loans to get his degrees, and worked as community organizer. And he is an elitist?

And the people of Pennsylvania bought Hillary's logic?

Well, let's see. Hitler was and did all of the following:
* he was racist
* he used divisive politics to consolidate power and isolate groups of people
* he threatened to obliterate entire groups of people, which threats he later made good on
* he vilified his opponents with unrestrained vitriol
* he was a megalomaniac

Now think about each statement as it relates to Hillary:
* she and Bill have both demonstrated they are racist; they lost the black vote that way
* she has clearly used triangulation and divisive politics to smear Obama and turn groups against each other
* she has threatened to obliterate Iran
* she has continually pulled out all the stops to malign Obama, even with outright lies and ridiculous insinuations
* she has demonstrated that she would rather see the Dem Party destroyed, Obama destroyed, and the Republican Party back in the White House, than for herself to lose the nomination and she feels entitled to the White house; that definitely qualifies as megalomania

So if the shoe fits...as such, I now formally dub her Hitlery and will call her that in perpetuity.
