How Hillary Clinton Can Win
We seem finally to be nearing an endgame in this campaign for the Democratic nomination. It's like a chess endgame where Obama's side is a pawn ahead and the remaining pieces are few. Hillary Clinton is predicted to win big in Kentucky tomorrow. Despite that, her back is to the wall. Barack Obama needs only 116 delegates to win, and Hillary needs quite a bit more than that. Every day we hear of superdelegates going to Obama and eventually it seems these will put him over the top. Hillary needs something desperate to throw the entire campaign for a loop and create a whole new contest. Can she do anything like that? She sure can:
That will tell the entire world that her Presidency would not depend much on Bill Clinton at all. That would end a whole variety of things: talk about Monica Lewinsky, talk about Clinton's sexual habits, a possible end to scandals for Hillary that involve Bill, such as Whitewater, and most of all, it would tell a prospective Vice President or other executive leaders that they won't have Bill on their backs telling them what to do. It would erase a lot of negatives from her and cast her as almost a completely new candidate. If this causes an avalanche of superdelegates to Hillary, she will win. But in order to do this, she must act. So do it, Hillary. There are 50 ways to leave your lover, so just Drop off the Key, Lee, and pick up the Key to the White House.
Get a Divorce!

Just get rid of Bill, Hill? ;-)
I am not convinced that even a full blown divorce would convince voters that Bill Clinton would have little or no influence in a Hillary Clinton Presidency.
