Former President Carter and Al Gore have discussed plans to tell Hillary Rodham Clinton that she must abandon her presidential bid, for the sake of the Democratic Party.
"They're in discussions," a source close to Carter told the Scotland on Sunday newspaper. "Carter has been talking to Gore. They will act, possibly together, or in sequence."
The newspaper said the message will be delivered — it's just a matter of when.
Barack Obama leads Clinton in the race for pledged delegates, and political experts say its nearly impossible for her to catch. But she retains a lead among superdelegates, and has pinned all of her hopes on them. She continues to insist that she will stay in the race until the Democratic convention in August.
According to Scotland on Sunday, the Carter-Gore talks have centered on two likely scenarios for ending Clinton's bid: Carter and Gore meet with her privately and ask her to step down. Or both of them appear in public and endorse Obama — which is likely to puch a majority of superdelegates to support Obama.

If she does well in Pa., they will look (more)foolish.

So these two losers are taking it upon themselves to tell Hillary what to do? They'd better be careful and watch their backs. And this just when that one poll in PA shows Hillary up by 20 points in a must-have state for the 'Rats?
This is one fight that I'm very content to sit back and watch from the sidelines.

"Carter has been talking to Gore. They will act, possibly together, or in sequence." Birds of a feather...flock together. These two are no exception.

This story is from last week,
before Snob-ama decided to insult pretty much everybody in Middle America,
before he tanked by 20 points, and
before the latest polls revealed he will get beat by McCain by 15 points.
So, now what do they do? Say "nevermind" and ask Obama to withdraw, for the good of the party?

Odd. Carter and Gore seem to always have opinions on things which is NOT their business!
But then so do Jackson & Sharpton & Ted Turner & most movie "stars" & & & the list is endless!

If Carter and Gore tried this Hillary would thump them with her Bible and then shoot them in the kneecaps with her grandfathers .22
You know how much Hillary dislikes typical elitist white people.
