J-Ger is shocked - shocked! - that the nutroots are unable to bring down Hillary!:

You know, I realize the netroots crowd isn’t unified behind a candidate the way they were behind Howard Dean in 2004. And maybe they were never quite as powerful a force in Democratic politics as the hype suggested. But right now, Hillary is probably their least favorite candidate in the Democratic field (unless it’s Biden?), and they haven’t even amounted to a speedbump for her, in any state. Their inability to take Hillary down a peg or two is really striking.

Or perhaps the Kos kidz and Sorosians and DUmmies have just been allowed to think they were running the Donk show until La Clinton Nostra decided it was time to take back the reins.  And now they have.

Trust me, the fever swamps are not and will never be even a pimple on Mrs. Clinton’s ample posterior.  When she clinches the nomination, they will either fall into line or be rendered summarily - and permanently - irrelevant.

My guess is the former.  After all, the once co- and future solo president was radicalizing when the vast majority of the Kos-hacks were either in diapers or in utero.  She wrote the book they’re coloring in.  They know - or will sooner or later find out - she’s one of them behind the six degrees of seperation she needs to win in November 2008.  And after that, she’ll be their goddess, to whom they’ll eagerly offer sacrifices for years to come.

We’ll be those sacrifices, but that’s another post.
