I’ve been closely following Hillary Clinton’s moves to allow voters the chance to pick her campaign song. Votes are now in, and, extremely disappointingly, rather than going with some great overblown messiah-complex soundtrack, they’ve chosen the most insipid song in the world. I very much doubt that this was the democratic result.

You and I
Were meant to fly
Higher than the clouds
We’ll sail across the sky
So come with me
And you will feel
That you and I
Were meant to fly

Much more promisingly bizarre, however, was the method of announcement, which entailed Hillary and Bill spoofing The Sopranos finale, complete with jokes about Chelsea being unable to parallel park. The video is here. Considering that The Sopranos is a show about power achieved through violence, intimidation, murder and patriarchal solidarity, I’m thinking this is the best indication yet that Hillary’s got what it takes to fuck everyone over and win the day.
