Clinton: 'Obama has to crush me in PA - like he crushed me in 30 other contests - or he loses the nomination.'
For a campaign on life support, the Clinton outfit sure is keen on defining "must-wins" for Obama.

"Obama claims, on the primary electoral map posted on his website, that he actually won Nevada."
Sean Wilentz is a terrible historian. His new piece up at Salon.com on the evils of proportional representation is not likely to improve his reputation. He claims that Obama (Obama!) is running a Bush-like campaign, exploiting flaws in the Democrat nomination process to suppress the popular support for Clinton. His evidence? That Obama claimed to have won Nevada while Clinton won the popular vote there. Well, earth to Wilentz: This is a delegate race. Obama won both Nevada and Texas (and tied in New Hampshire), according to the contest rules. The media reported the opposite, but that reflects their misunderstanding of the Democrat rules - not Obama's exploiting them.

"She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”
Clinton's ethics have come to the forefront this week as fallout continues from her Bosnia flap and her former boss at the House Judiciary Committee claims that he fired her "because she [was] a liar" who "conspired to violate the Constitution" during the Watergate hearings.
Here's more of Clinton at her ethical best, 1993-present:
* She claimed that she had no role in the 1993 White House Travel Office firings (Travel-Gate), but an independent council report issued in 2000 found her claim "factually false."
* She claimed that she opposed NAFTA in the '90s, but her own White House records belie that.
* She claimed that her vote for "A Resolution to Authorize the Use of United States Armed Forces Against Iraq" wasn't a vote for war, but for more inspections.
Al Gore was free with the facts too. He claimed to have "taken the initiative in creating the Internet" and at some other point implied that he had inspirationed Love Story. That earned him with a reputation as a serial fibber and killed him in the 2000 election. Clinton claims that Obama is the one who could have problems in the general election, but she is the more vulnerable candidate on the most important issue: trust. Few trust Clinton and - with a look at the examples above - it isn't hard to see why.
UPDATE: Dick Morris has "Hillary's List of Lies"

There's a moment 4 minutes and 40 seconds into this clip of the Chinese State Circus performing "Swan Lake" that is - how can I put this? - FIERCE!
