Who fights best in tight quarters?

Loved this quote from Red State Conservative News

The Clintons--whatever else one can say about them--are exceedingly good in
a knife fight. Perhaps, as Jim Vandehei and Mike Allen write, that talent has
been exaggerated for the purpose of propagating an interesting storyline. But it
remains substantially true. And in the chaos of a brokered convention, he--or
she--who is good at a knife fight may be able to create an advantage. At the
very least, the knifer may be able to secure an excellent consolation prize.

The more I think about it, the more the Democratic presidential nomination race shows that the Clintons always look out for themselves -- no matter how much it might hurt others.

A Daily Kos writer is convinced that Hillary Clinton cannot win the election based on the voting so far, so she's sticking in the race to destroy Barack Obama. Others have said would any other Democratic party candidate stay in the race at this point when to do so risks sinking the Democratic party.

Of course, any one on the GOP side could have said the same thing about Hillary Clinton (and Bill) after all the years of Travelgate, White Water, etc.

It's interesting that the Democrats are saying it about one of their own -- especially one who once was held in such high esteem by everyone in that party.
