BREAKING: Hillary Won't Instruct Delegates to Vote for Obama!!!

The Politico ^

No Guidance From Clinton

Speaking to reporters after her address to the New York delegation, Clinton offered delegates no instruction on how to cast their votes, Amie Parnes reports.

"I will be telling my delegates that I will vote for Barack Obama," she said. "How they vote is a more personal decision. They want to have their chance to vote for me. That is what traditionally happens ... some people are having to make up their minds because there are arguments pulling them both ways."

Many of Clinton's delegates have already made up their minds. Some of her pledged delegates will vote for the one that brung them. Many of her superdelegates — particularly those with substantial African-American constituencies — have already said they'll vote for Obama. Anthony Weiner (who's running for mayor of New York) and Debbie Wasserman Schultz are both in that category.

But her decision not to decide puts others in a tough position, torn betewen their loyalty to her and their eye to the future.

PUMA!

They also have to be thinking that if McCain wins, then Hillary will be back in 2012 and she has a very, very long memory.

Machiavelli would be proud.

Uh oh, bill and hill are going to be taking names.

Lone Watie: "We thought about it for a long time, 'Endeavor to persevere.' And when we had thought about it long enough, we declared war on the Union."

This week will show America what a mess the Dems have created of thier party....NOW if McCain is reading and watching, he needs a true blue Conservative with Reagan foresight like Duncan Hunter to make this a complete landslide.

Can’t wait for the Clinton’s speeches. They will be carefully crafted by the Clintons and will not likely hew to the script Obama has laid out.

Popcorn - popcorn time!

[Pan_Yan]

I would like to see a list of the names of the kids who picked on Hillary when she was in elementarty school.




And what years they all "committed suicide."

[taxcontrol]

Michigan and Florida now get full votes and Hillary is within striking distance AND Obama has not done as well as the super delegates would like.

Now comes the possibility of a floor fight. I think it is going to get very nasty, Hillary will be the nominee and quite possibly, it will split the party.

What was that line from “The Wrath of Khan” Star Trek movie where he yells at Cap’t Kirk, “From Hell’s heart I stab at thee..”? I can see it oozing out of Her Heinous’ pores..

[Crazieman]

If I get any more popcorn, I’m going to throw it all up.

I can’t take the popcorn! Its too much!

[Pete]

LOL

[dfwgator]

Looks like Hillary is going to do to Obama, what Ted Kennedy did to Jimmy Carter in 1980.

Exactly. She will be in a weaker position in 2012 -- older, out of power longer, the Clinton glory days a more distant memory. This is her shot. If Obama were riding high, she'd probably fade away -- but not now. She has options, and she will exercise them. Given her loss in the primaries, her current position is as strong as she could have possibly imagined.

I say she'll go all-in.

Yes, there was an article about the committee deciding just yesterday to grant FULL VOTES to Michigan and Florida even though it had previously been deciding to slash the delegate count in 1/2 for voting early. Well, now the numbers don’t add up to Obama’s side now, do they?

[KYGrandma]

What did Kennedy do to Carter? In 1980 I was working fulltime, taking care of a haby, and don’t remember anything except I couldn’t vote because we had moved to another state.

Openly repair the gallery roads, but sneak through the passage of Chencang (traditional Chinese: 暗渡陳倉; simplified Chinese: 暗渡陈仓; pinyin: Àn dù chén cāng) Deceive the enemy with an obvious approach that will take a very long time, while surprising him by taking a shortcut and sneak up to him. As the enemy concentrates on the decoy, he will miss you sneaking up to him

[wilco200]

I can;t decide which speech I’d rather hear at the DNC Hillary’s or one by Rev. Wright! WoW! Obama’s chicken’s are coming home to roost. boak boak!!!

HELL YES!

From your keyboard to McCain's eyes on some monitor somewhere, despite the naysayers and the ignorant slobs who p*ssed all over Duncan Hunter (some of them right here on FR), Duncan Hunter is not only a combat veteran with over a quarter century of national security experience and could serve as President in the event that President McCain is unable to do so, Hunter is the only Californian in the GOP that could possibly put his state into play.

And I'd love to watch Duncan Hunter dismantle Joe Biden's so-called expertise in areas of foreign policy, he would eat plagiarizin' Joe's lunch right down to the sandwich wrapper.

McCain / Hunter 2008!

THAT is a ticket conservatives could enthusiastically support!
