Thursday Quick Hits

One post v. many today...just because...

* Great post by Kos on Clinton's strategy of turning Obama into just another black man and discredit the caucus system. Could not agree more.

* A great great post on the Burnt Orange Report about stopping with the stupid in what is supposed to be a humerous editorial, but really eviscerates the stupid Hillary talking points strategy in yet another way...one key point is that McCain won CA and NY, so does that mean Hillary and McCain will BOTH win them in a general election fight? Come on, end the stupid, Hills.

* AMERICABlog post on Ferraro leaving the Hillary campaign now that she's done the dirty work - and we know that she's been race-baiting for several seeks now (see the Olbermann Special Comment). Speaking of comment, a comment on the Comment here...and how Howard Ickes tells a group of supporters that she can only win thorugh SuperDelegates...

* Some Mark Penn YouTube moment of him doing something Ferraro-ish...

* Two TPM posts about the ugly way that Clinton is slogging her way through to losing the primaries by throwing all these harsh bombs, including mailers about Obama's supposed support of Farrakhan because Farrrakhan came out in support of him...?

* A great Robert Reich post about the coming recession and how it could spiral in to Depression and the coincident nature of our current situation to that of America in 1929-1932...

* the Space Shuttle docks with the space station...

* Spitzer's , er, ladyfriend, and Red Sox pitcher Clay Bucholz's new special ladyfriend...
