For decades Mrs Clinton has thought of herself as a woman of destiny. Even as a little girl she would stand in a patch of sunlight pretending there were heavenly movie cameras watching my every move. She willingly served in her husbands shadow, in spite of the humiliations he inflicted on her with his womanising, on the assumption she would have her turn.
The New Yorker praised her ability to suppress the coughing through sheer will. After reading ths, how much credit do I get for suppressing the barf through my sheer force of will?

And she made the trains run on time, too! Don't forget that! Or that weekend where she got 14 Holes-in-One golfing. She had the first 301 game bowling. Take that Mr. Thrity-seven!

If Obama is elected President, shell set up a shadow Presidency. Well, that IS a realm she's familiar with.

The strain of the campaign has been hard on her.
The bulldyke beneath the make-up is peeping through.

That blue dress ribbon was probably for all the flying ash trays in the WH. I guess that could have been called a battle zone when they were there for eight years.

And even if its true that her chances are between 5% and 20%, since when is that a reason to give up? He can't win on elected delegates either, but they hardly ever mention that. If Obama was in her position and she in his, would any Democrats be demanding that he concede?
It should be obvious that the Democrat leadership:
1. Wants Obama, regardless of the electoral consequences, so as to appease the monolithic black vote.
2. And wants the Clintons...gone. It took them sixteen years to recognize that this pair of grifters were corrupt beyond mention and not only dangerous for the country, but for their precious party.
What goes around, comes around...A__holes.

You know what occurred to me?
Bill may be on the hook with people expecting her to be pres. He may have gotten big bucks for his foundation and god knows what and those donors were buying something and it wasn’t his good will.
Bill may be up to his ears in IOU’s to people you don’t wanta owe favors to. That mayt explain his desperation.

I didn’t say Hillary was electable. She isn’t.

A score of 37 in bowling is exactly the type of score you get when you take your Brownies pack to the bowling lanes.
Obama bowls like a Brownie.

He may be just as evil as she is, but he is a novice compared to her..... I agree with you.
Except I am not ready to proclaim Obama as 'evil', (unless you consider him evil for simply being a leftist) I believe him to be more: naive, idealistic, inexperienced, less shrewed, less cunning, more in a position to listen to other liberals and the occassional middle of the roader.
Hillary though has planned this since college and will let nothing stand in her way even a lying cheating scum of a husband. She also considers herself to be superior in intellect then everyone else (as do most liberals).

Hows that? Simply put, Hillary is a liberal Satan portraying herself as a lamb.
If you believe her to be preferable over Obama, then I believe that her tactics and planning have worked to deceive you into believing that she is something she is not.

“To lose big in PA (she will)” I sure hope you are correct on this point, what evidence do you have to suggest or support this?

A few weeks ago Hillary was double digits above Hussein in PA.
16%-26% lead in various polls
Now her lead has shrunk to 2%-5% in most polls and one poll even has Hussein in the lead.
By the time the PA primary takes place, I think Hillary is going to lose and she’s going to lose big.
I am not happy about this. I wish she would win by a huge margin in PA and also take Indiana and NC and go on to end up with a higher popular vote total.
I’d like to see a real fight all the way to the convention floor. I’d love to see the stupor-delegates end up giving Hillary the nod, which would cause African Americans to bolt from the demonrat party in a big way.
Hillary would be SOOOOOOO easy to beat in November.
But it ain’t gonna happen. Hillary blew it. She blew her brains out with a sniper rifle. She coulda been a contender, but she’s toast.
Which is so much the worse for us. Now we’ve got to face a muzzie with a Messiah complex and hordes of extremely stupid voters (all educated by the NEA) who are willing to sell America down the river in the name of diversity.
I am worried about our nation.
