Gosh, Miss Marple, if that was to happen it would be just chaos for the dems. The blacks would riot, and then leave the party in droves. It would be 1968 all over again.

My feeling is that even the superdelagates would rather Obama lose than risk that. 2012 is only 4 years away.

Then again, I’m using logic and that, in the dem party, is not a common tool.

The perfect analogy of Hillary Clinton is Jadis of Charn in C.S. Lewis's The Magician's Nephew, one of the Chroniciles of Narnia.

In that book, the children discover a dead world and unwittingly awaken Queen Jadis, who has been in suspended animation waiting for someone to come. She had been at war with her sister, and when she saw that her sister would prevail, she spoke the deplorable word, which ended all life on her world (except for her). Horrified, the children asked why she did it, and Jadis answered "Because otherwise my sister would win."

There you have it in a nutshell. Hillary is Jadis,and I think if she can do it she will speak the deplorable word at the convention. The democrats are in a lose-lose situation right now, with certain doom under Obama and certain doom if Hillary makes her move. If they keep Obama, they lose the blue collar vote and the older white women. If they dump Obama, they stir up the black community and lose their votes, as well as the university kids, who will stay home or go to Nader.

I am looking forward to the convention. Heheheh.

I don't rule ANYTHING out at the Rat convention. OTOH your statements above just made me realize what an advantage they have.

However much they may hate us, deep down they know we will not destroy the country itself (barring an enforced amnesty which they want anyway and which we will HAVE TO stop again if necessary). We do NOT have the luxury of saying oh what the hell, 2012 is only 4 years away...
