Is Hillary Clinton Trying To Win The Nomination…

…or is she simply laying the groundwork for a 2012 “I told you so” argument?

Barring an unforeseen catastrophe, Obama wins the nomination. Obama has unnecessarily solidified the Democratic relationship with the African-American vote, at the expense of alienating “downscale” voters, Catholics, Jewish folks, and White voters 65 and older. All that, and we haven’t even started with Independents and disaffected Hillary supporters vowing to vote McCain or stay home come November.

Hillary has successfully set herself up to play “I told you so” when Obama loses to McCain.
