I wondered about that too earlier, but when i looked at how the delegates went, even though Hillary lost the 3 states, still she and Obama split the delegate votes...
It’s just too bad the public doesn’t see what is going on..maybe in a way that is ok because they see Obama winning State after State while Hillary is left on the platform with her handkerchief..That said, nothing is ever a straight line to the Dems..always has to be something to blur the lines...
Actually, BOTH parties are a mess right now.
You are right there! Irrespective of his actual stands on the issues, Obama IS energizing the Dems and trouncing the previously coronated Hillary in the process. Meanwhile the Reps put up a doddering, grumpy anachronism from the Senate, a nominee who cannot even pull a majority in his own Party's caucuses in what is essentially a two man race? Give me a break Puleeeze!
"Only even up bets?"
LOL - There are those who are confidently, and even arrogantly predicting a McCain victory in Nov. They also attack any who dare to question this assessment. Being the sucker I am, I stand ready to hand them my money, even up, in the face of their certainty over the inevitable victory by McCain in Nov. /s
So what’s up with this brokered convention scenario, any idea?
Because Huck might not be able to win that 1100+ delegate count required to clinch the nomination, but it is certainly in the possibility that he could prevent McCain from getting it. Am I right?
So up to the convention, say McCain gets maybe 900+ delegates. What then?
They go behind closed doors? Smoke filled rooms?
If so, McCain will get it, eh? Cause the Repub elites WANT this man never mind what we think.
She’s setting back all women.
I'm sorry...GIVEN this opportunity? Who gave it to her? She GRABBED it for herself, and used Slick's coattails to create herself a Senate seat and a platform for the presidency.
I don't respect her for a number of reasons, because after all she is a dem, but if she had done it FOR HERSELF, I might have the tiniest shred of respect for her. She put up with the Sinkmeister for exactly this reason.
Sisters should be doing it for themselves...isn't that how the song goes??
I'm in a college town and know a bunch o'Obama and Kucinich supporters - they hate that bi$ch. The crying makes their heads spin - even leftists want to know how this woman is going to lead the country in crisis w/o breaking down into tears.
Fork Meet Hilary!
What is really interesting is what happened tonight on the Dem side AND the barn burner of a speech Obama gave at the Jeff/Jackson Dinner. It was rousing and, I think, enough to maybe wake up some of these brain-dead ‘Elites’ to the very evident fact that McCain is most definitely not the person to meet either of these two in the General. To boot, even discounting the Presidential race, I am certain that he will pull down so many others on his lousy coattails.
This is a mess and, frankly, given my absolute LOATHING of the Clintons, I will have to be content if they are simply kept out of the White House. I would like to be able wish for more but I can’t ignore the reality of a McCain candidacy so I’ll keep my fingers crossed that the Clinton’s are stopped by Obama.
LOL!! Hey, Shrillary, looks like you’ll need to pimp your daughter out even more if you want to win.......
OOPS, did I say something un-PC that might get the Clintonista attack dogs after me?
BWAHAHAHAHAHA! That made my day!
