Chicago Tribune: Why Obama should withdraw

chicagotribune.com  "The vultures are starting to circle. Former White House spokesman Bill Burton said that unless Obama can rally the Democratic base, which is disillusioned with him, "it's going to be impossible for the president to win." Democratic consultant James Carville had one word of advice for Obama: "Panic.""

He does like Hillary, of course. Speaking of whom:

"Perhaps the more people see of Hillary Clinton the more they're reminded of her lies, her meanness and her seemingly unquenchable desire for power. Look at Hillary and you see:

•Whitewater, Casa Grande and her role in those scams
•"Fire their asses!" The order given by Hillary to sack the White House Travel Office
•Marines being used to hand out canapes at White House functions
•Her obstruction of justice and perjury in the Rose Law Firm billing records scandal.
•Craig Livingstone and the cache of FBI files
•The "I want to take those profits" moment.
•Leading the effort to destroy the women involved with her husband.
Oh yeah .. there's more, and (again) as Peggy Noonan says in this column: "There's something about her that makes you look, watch, think, look again, weigh and say: No."
