From NYT:
"On the day Senator [Clinton] was endorsed by the governor of North Carolina, a supporter gave her a three-foot-long balloon replica of herself, complete with blond hair, black pantsuit and wide pink smile, which Mrs. Clinton promptly took on her plane and laughingly showed off to reporters.
On Thursday, little more than two weeks later, the doll lay on the sofa by her seat on the plane, shriveled and deflated."
Sometimes I wonder how true these little anecdotes from the campaign trail really are. A lot has been said about how Obama has run a better campaign but surely somebody on Clinton's team must have realized that having a deflated doppelganger of Clinton in plain view of by-now extremely bored journalists was a metaphor too easy to ignore.
