Your favorite Downfall here! (Hitler and the End of whatever!)

While I don't like (most) Hitler comparisons, I thought the "Hillary's Downfall" video was hilarious.

By the way, this particular video (a clip from Der Untergang) has the uncanny ability to adapt itself to whatever downfall theme is plugged in; not long ago it was the downfall of the Cowboys, then later the the Patriots' devastating loss to the Giants at Superbowl XLII.

I want more downfalls!

MORE: Via Glenn Reynolds (who questions her "Southern Strategy") a glimpse of the real Hillary, from a report linked by Michael Silence and cached here:

The year was 1993, and the focus was on comprehensive health care reform. The Clinton administration was mounting a full-court press in persuading congressional leaders to sign on to a health care bill championed by the White House.

Cooper [U.S. Rep. Jim Cooper, D-TN] had a health care bill of his own.

"They turned up their nose at my bill, and that's fine. But then they constructed this secret 500-person task force to draft a whole new bill - and I knew it would go nowhere," Cooper said. "So I went privately to the White House to warn (Hillary Clinton). No publicity. No nothing.

"She brought in a camera to record the meeting. And she has not released the memos on this meeting. She immediately declared war on me. I warned her we didn't even have the votes (for her bill) in our subcommittee. She said, 'We're going to (politically) cut your legs off.' I've never gotten such a cold reception as I got from her."

Cooper said the first lady set up a war room to undercut Cooper, who was gearing up for a run at the U.S. Senate in 1994. And a former television news reporter from Nashville was tasked with leading that war room, he said.

Either my health care plan or war!
