Hillary’s Not Fooling Anyone

Hillary’s attempt to cast herself as a blue-collar girl is as phony as any of her reinventions, and voters realize it.

Contrary to her belief, we are not morons. We know that she has had child care at her beck and call, along with a full staff of servants as she reared Chelsea first in the Arkansas Governor’s Mansion and then in the White House.

She’s no working mom. But it serves her purpose to portray herself in that light so as to give voters who are turned off by the Rev. Wright and worried about Obama an excuse to vote for her. Her posturing as something she is not — a redneck girl — makes it OK to vote for her even if the motivation is not affection for Hillary but fear of Obama.
