That’s two Obama Delegates down and one possible Obama delegate down.

As the Democrat political agents buried deep inside the Department of Justice go about their masters' business, you are going to see a vast surge in indicted Democrat politicians.

It's a heck of a way to destroy a Superdelegate but it seems to work.

Just thinking here the Democrats were all begging for "perp walks" for top Republicans and the only guy they bagged was the VP's Jewish chief of staff.

That's it ~ one Republican indicted and convicted in nearly 8 years.

When it comes to Democrats it's been a sheis-kar-load!

Sure...Hillary lost Spitzer, correct? So that's two Obamas to one Hillary. I'll trade you another Hillary for three Obamas.

(I have no clue how the poker thing works, it just sounds good)

Indictment does not disqualify a Democrat superdelegate! Conviction may not even disqualify a Democrat superdelegate! Resignation or Death may disqualify but not indictment or conviction.

Out of curiosity, why is that you mentioned Scooter Libby's religion? I just find it odd, given that nobody mentioned the "Roman Catholic Governor of Puerto Rico", who was just indicted.

Because the Democrats have been after a "Neo-con" for the last couple of decades, and they finally bag one ~ and guess what?

It's not unrelated that Scooter is Jewish. The Dems wanted to get one and they did. You'd better believe that in their "closed to the public" clone-fests they giggle like schoolgirls about sending a Jew to prison.

The issue is what the Democrats are up to, not what I think.
