1. 158 more delegates Hillary gets is 158 delegates Obama doesn't have...she pulls closer, but he still doesn't have enough. The SuperDelegates (the dems way of making sure their party's interests trump the popular vote) then come into play. Whichever way it goes, there will be alot of disenfranshised dems leaving Denver. And,
2. To me, the unknown Obama is terrifying. The Manchurian Candidate personified. I keep reading here (FR) that 'he can't win.' Ok...well how did he get this far? He has the media is his pocket; swooning/fainting masses; and 190% of the black vote. Any criticism of candidate Obama or (shudder) President Obama is 'racist.'
No, I am not a Limbaugh 'lemming.' I figured this out all by myself.
PM, you’re fear of Obama as a Manchurian Candidate mirrors my own. I believe that Obama feels for racist Wright the love and devotion of a son who never had a father and never lived among blacks before coming to Chicago and Trinity in his 20s. I believe his twenty years spent willingly, maybe eagerly, absorbing the black liberation mantra made him a committed Marxist radical, eager to eliminate rampant “institutionalized racism” (which only blacks see)... but for the moment he’s hiding his real agenda behind a smiling facade and a content-free “Yes, we can”. It’s no accident they’ve put Michele in a cave somewhere until he’s anointed...she says what he thinks but is too smart to say yet.
There are a lot more than 158 delegates up for grabs in the remaining primaries. Which is why this a dangerous strategy.
