just reporting the facts . . . .

Did you miss this in the news?
ABC News' Eloise Harper Reports: Speaking at her Louisville, KY campaign headquarters, Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., told a crowd of supporters Thursday that she is pulling for the filly, Eight Bells, for the upcoming Kentucky Derby.
In selecting Eight Bells, Clinton picked the only girl horse in the race. Perhaps the most fitting move for the woman vying to be the nation's first woman elected president.
Clinton in full Derby enthusiasm even tried on a traditional derby hat while greeting well-wishers. WATCH VIDEO HERE.
Sen. Clinton repeated her desire for the filly to be victorious – saying to a crowd in Jeffersonville, Indiana saying she was sending in her daughter to place her bets. "I hope that everybody will go to the derby on Saturday and place just a little money on the filly for me. I wont be able to be there this year – my daughter is going to be there and so she has strict instructions to bet on Eight Bells."

well, sadly we know how this turns out.
Eight Bells came in SECOND and had to be euthanized track side.
She was beaten by . . . .
Big Brown.
hmmmmm. . . ironic? karma?

Also, just to remind you at home. Hillary often compares herself to Rocky Balboa.
someone needs to point out to the Senator that in Rocky 1, Rocky Balboa lost his fight . . . to Apollo Creed, (and just to keep the record super straight, he is a black man)
just sayin . . . .

keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow. Go Barack- let's put this thing away! It has been entertaining, but I'm no longer amused. We need to get busy defeating Grumpy McCain
