Let me start off by saying that Eight Belles death was absolutely horrific, and some serious questions need to be raised about horse breeding, the legal use of anabolic steroids in horse racing, and horse treatment.
That being said, I direct you to this article:
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/05/clinton-backs-g.htmlIf you don't know, Eight Belles had to be put down after the Kentucky Derby due to multiple leg fractures. But the evil side of me can't help but make a metaphor between this race and the democratic one. The only female contender in the race finishing second to Big Brown and then having to be "put down"* after. Its almost TOO good. Lets just hope Big Brown doesn't lose the Triple Crown to Crazy Old Dude.
*I do not in any way support the euthanization of losing presidential contenders.
