WHAT ABOUT A PHOTO FINISH? Just a Minute File for Tuesday 5-6 -08 -- Off to the races!

Hi There…

 

Big *important* races today, if the pundits have it right… Results on tonight. But they still won’t be definitive – at least it would be a surprise if they were. So that means we *still* have the hang-fire race for the Democrat nomination for President on our news channels. Yawn – yawn.  Everybody is getting tired. Hillary is getting horse – and Obama keeps trying to unglue Rev. Mr. Wright from his would be transcendent person – but it looks like a struggle fit for Ulysses. The furor dies down and Wright or somebody digs out another skeleton and the pot is boiling again. Super delegates all in a stew.

 

Today’s minute is about the Kentucky Derby and Madam Hillary’s suggested bet. Did it do her any good or ill?

 

Here are links for listening and commenting.

“JUST A MINUTE”

WILL WE HAVE A PHOTO FINISH?

Just A Minute – I’m not a horse race fan but this Internet report perhaps illuminates the political ‘horse races’ going on today in Indiana and North Carolina. Experts in both say it’s too close to call; it’ll be a photo finish. But this season has its surprises.

Hillary Clinton got her bets down for the Kentucky Derby when she suggested: “… bettors might be smart to wager a little money on the filly.” That would have been Eight Belles, [spelled belles] the lone female in the race. The AP reported the filly finished second, “then collapsed with two broken front ankles and was euthanized after crossing the wire.” There were many tears in the stands as the handlers tended the injured animal.

The most useful thought arises from the prisoner Paul’s words to the Philippians: “Be anxious for nothing but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God that passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.” (Phil. 4:6,7)
