What I don't understand is that according to RealClearPolitics, Obama and Clinton have a combined total of 3739 delegates. They also claim that there are 210 remaining undecided superdelegates, 55 Puerto Rico delegates, 16 Montana delegates and 15 South Dakota delegates.

That would imply that the nominee needs to win 2018 delegates - out of a total of 4035.

If you add in 156 delegates for MI and 185 delegates for FL, the needed total is 2189 out of a total 4376.

So where is everyone getting this 2025 number from?

By my calculation, even if Clinton wins PR, MT, and SD by wide margins and gets half of the superdelegates remaining plus her delegates from MI and FL she will still lose the count by a few delegates.

Otherwise? I'll be the twitchy one on radio row at the divided Democratic convention in Denver... spooked by the ghosts of 1968, 1972, 1980. . . .

The ghost of Hizzoner da Mare, Richard J. Daley, will be fuming on the floor of the Pepsi Center!

IF the superdelegates stay silent and allow this to go on . . .

. . . they will increase their bribe potential! See the dollar signs! $$$

She reminds me of some "people" I know who are more than willing to cut off their nose to spite their face. . . .

Hillary is getting ready for her nosectomy:

Here’s a scenario

Hillary knows some dirt on Obama but doesn’t have enough data to pull the trigger on it. She loses at the convention and announces a 3rd party run while she waits for the Obama dirt to ripen. He gets knocked out by the scandal and Hillary announces she is the true Democrat candidate. The Democrats concede to her.

would go to any length until circumstances are bent to their will.

Perhaps not the best turn of phrase, considering the Bent One, Li'l Willie.

In the end, even in politics, there are rules.

You don't know the Clintons.

There is only one word to describe her candidacy's effect on the Democratic Party, and that is "toxic."

Subvert the nomination, buy the votes, sow chaos.

Cry "Chaos!" and let slip the bags of dough!

I wish you Obamabots would collect your tears in a jar when Obama loses in the fall. . . .

CRY (If your Dem votes)
By Johnnie Ray-of-Sunshine
Tune: "Cry" (If your sweetheart)

If your Dem votes seem a little bit too high
It's just Limbaugh, you'll feel better if you cry
We're coming to your party
Don't you sometimes think it's real
But it's only your elections that we steal

If Rush Limbaugh seems to hang around and gloat
And your dim hopes keep getting dimmer with each vote
November storm clouds can be found
Behind the sunny skies
So get your hopes down and go on and cry

If Rush Limbaugh seems to hang around and gloat
And your dim hopes keep getting dimmer with each vote
Well now, November storm clouds can be found
Behind a sunny sky
So get your hopes down and go right on baby and cry!

I have not worked this hard for the Democratic causes all these years to have Hillary sacrifice our values on the altar of her ego

Hillary can't afford to sacrifice her "alter ego" Bubba until the campaign is finally over...

I think Hillary Clinton is a bully.

The moonbats' favorite complaint when things aren't going their way: "______ is a bully."

I can't trust her. I have become very afraid of her. Who is this demon that is within her. I am disenchanted with the idea of a Hillary Clinton presidency now or ever. Even her voice has become something ominous, grating, and evil. I can see no redeeming quality in Hillary.

PL&T Award, kev?

Tune: "Ebony and Ivory" Original

Ebony and Ovary
In the gutter in every primary
Suicide when we hit November
D*mn her, Hillary!

We all know
That liberals are the same whatever their name
There's a Socialist
In every one
But they sling the mud
When they have to face each other
When they need to attack
They lay down the smack

Ebony, Ovary, fighting in every primary
