Mes Ailes à Moi

Hillary Rodham Clinton took another step into toward the bright, shining path of mediocrity when she chose "You and I" by Celine Dion to be her campaign song.

The song includes such poetic gems as:

"I can hear your voice calling out to me
Brighter than the sun and darker than the night"

as well as,

"And on and on this earth spins like a carousel"

The song is so full of white sugar that Type II types can be sent into shock just from a casual sampling.

For the Clintonians who forgot to properly vett the song, the singer and the song writers (Aldo Nove and Jacques Duval) are Canandian. The song choice seems a bit odd for someone who's running to be President of the United States. The song, first recorded in 2004, has also been used to promote Air Cananda's inflight service - another oversight or just plain stupidity?

Dion performed the song live for several seasons during her Las Vegas gig when she masqueraded as Elvis impersonating a lesbian. Lord, if only everything that was heard in Vegas, stayed in Vegas, Hillary would have a passing chance in 2008. Clearly her campaign is clueless about America regardless of the trippy, dippy diner where her and Bill sit down for a bowl of carrot sticks. They are about as hip as your grandparents but not nearly as endearing.

This song is a portend. Of the simple, backward-looking leadership we can expect from the so-called party leaders. If Obama counters with Fantasia's "Hood Boy" he's a lock.
