Developing story on Drudge. No details as of yet.

Superdelegates do not want to meet with Clinton today.

Superdelegates do not want to meet with Clinton today.

I thought I heard shrieking this morning. It wasn’t the bobcats on the mountain with me, it was Hill!

[Revolting cat!]

Well, Rush Windbagough will meet with her to discuss their next steps together!

Hillary’s so rough and tough. She pulled out of her scheduled appearances on the Today Show, Good Morning America, etc. this morning. Why? Is she afraid of getting asked questions about where her campaign goes from here, her plans for campaigning, etc? Is she afraid of Diane Sawyer asking her questions about the status of the campaign????

Probably because Super Delegates can Add and Subtract - Unlike her High-School Drop-Out Supporters:

*** The new math: Another thing that last night did was kill the Clinton’s campaign’s two best talking points. First, the popular vote: After last night, Obama now leads Clinton by more than 700,000 (16,050,924 vs. 15,336,896). When you include Florida, Obama leads by 419,256, and when you include both Florida and Michigan (and don’t give Obama “uncommitted”), his lead is 90,947. And here’s what’s left in our pop vote simulator
Total votes Clinton Obama Split
WV: 400,000 240,000 160,000 60-40
KY: 500,000 300,000 200,000 60-40
OR: 600,000 270,000 330,000 45-55
SD: 100,000 45,000 55,000 45-55
MT: 125,000 56,250 68,750 45-55
Totals 911,250 813,750

Under this scenario, Clinton will net 97,500 in the remaining contests. So Clinton can win the popular vote if you count Florida and Michigan, but it’ll be close and it’s just as likely with a bigger than expected win for Obama in Oregon that he can actually win the popular vote even with netting ZERO votes out of Michigan. This shows just how massive both turnout was in North Carolina and the margin of Obama’s victory was in the state. Once again, he shows that when he wins a state, he wins big.

Who has the gravitas to tell the Clintons that the race is over? Does any Democrat have that status?

Super delegates don’t want to meet because they don’t want to hear the latest spin about how the Clintons are going to pull this out.

[Pete]

Hillary has only one possible strategy left. She needs to show the super delegates that Obama is not electable in the general election. She can do that with polling but, more likely, it will involve politically crippling Obama with opposition research.

That is really the only card she has left.

[Always Right]

Well, Rush Windbagough will meet with her to discuss their next steps together!

The longer Rush can keep that corpse propped up the better.

[tumblindice]

My 18 year old daughter—voted for first time!—were watching Hill’s post-mortem late last night.
td jr. said, “If she says the words ‘gas prices’ one more time, I’m gonna puke.”
That’s my girl!

Re your comment, if Willie tells her, he’d better be wearing a helmet . . . ;^)

[cosmic_me]

Can we blame them for turning their backs on her? Her target voters have been the elderly white uneducated. I guess when you’re considered stupid the person using you assumes your too stupid to see the insult in being lumped into that category. It’s a nice way of saying.. I’ve got the support of Old stupid white america LMAO

Now there’s a ticket to the whitehouse everyone wants to get behind. NEXT! I think I’m smelling a concession from a Clinton and she just doesn’t know how to do it so she may have cut off her media events to run to Betty Ford to find a quick 12 step plan of acceptance over all this. Must be so hard to be a Clinton this morning and taste defeat.

[freedomlover]

Maybe they felt a little uncomfortable about the Fort Marcy suggested venue.

[Petronski]

Superdelegates also reportedly avoiding bad oysters, thumbs-in-the-eye, and syphilis.

[freerepublic_or_die]

Who says fairy tales don't come true?

Humpty Dumpty Hillary Hillary Had A Great Fall..........

[illiac]

I too have been watching for a concession. She is keeping her campaign alive with her own money (where did the 30 million go after the last primary?)

Or do we dare ask?

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

I didn’t think they would appreciate death threats after all.

[SE Mom]

Am thinking it’s time for a thread.. Bets on Hillary’s Dropout Date..

[Petronski]

Hillary’s bringing a date to the dropout?

I got ten bucks says it’s her Saudi galpal.
