It happened today. Wolf Blitzer used the F word when discussing Hillary Clinton.
For weeks, we have been watching the second half of the media’s favorite Comfort the afflicted then afflict the comforted. Since the race began, Hillary has been comfortable. She was the clear frontrunner -- annointed by the Republican brain trust as the defacto nominee.
Barack Obama was the neophyte who didn’t stand a chance. A funny thing happens when voters get involved, however.
Barack gave an electrifying speech at the Iowa Jefferson Jackson Dinner, and he as been on the rise ever since. The latest polls either have him ahead or dead even with Hillary Clinton, not just in Iowa, but New Hampshire. Next stop, South Caroline.
And so Wolf, CNN’s Captain Obvious suggested used the F word to describe her candidacy.
Freefall.
Don’t get to comfortable, Barack. The media will come after you. :-)
