you might say Democrats have finally voted to impeach.

That will depend on how Hillary is treated down the line. Will she be made Senate Majority Leader? Will she be the Dem prez nominee in 2012 should Obama lose in November? Will the media treat her as a high priestess ? Or will she become a has-been and shunted to the side?

I have been making the argument for months that given a chance to rid their party of these Arkansas grifter who took it over in the 1990s, the super delegates would go for Obama. Certainly that is why many old line Dems like most of the Kennedy family went with him.

...but after Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis ....

They apparently haven't noticed that they're about to nominate a black version of Michael Dukakis, only with more baggage.

Has been.
She won’t run in 2012. This is her last shot now. That’s why she won’t quit.

Her support has been falling off since her senate run. It will be much less in 2012. Plus her botox will have worn out, her face will have lost all support and fallen well below her jaw line as well.

4 years into the future may as well be an eternity as far as Hillary is concerned.

"No, we don't mean Bill and Hillary"

LOL. Well maybe not today, but..... anyone taking bets on how long they'll bother to keep up the false front once a return to the WH has eluded their greedy grasp? Anyone want to bet that they'll still be married to each other in a year? Two years?

It’s not a divorce, and it’s not an impeachment. It’s an exorcism.

Hillary is one step away from her Linda Blair moment.

No, we don't mean Bill and Hillary.

But, you don't not mean Bill & Hillary, either. Right?

'Cause he owes her. Just ask. I'm sure she'll tell you.

So I have a question. Who is more likely to choose her as VP running mate? McCain or Hussein?

She will make sure that Obama doesn’t get elected come November. If she can’t have the nomination then she will take the party down with her. Kinda like one of those sickos that kill people a la OJ.

Simone de Beauvoir, existentialist and feminist writer and also girlfriend of Jean Paul Satre...

Wrote “The Second Sex”. In it she said that women and black men were on an equal footing and that they should work together to advance each others position out of thier equally supressed positions. Supressed by men that is.
This was a very popular lefty and feminist tome.

Well... I guess they couldn’t work it out. lol

She must be rolling over in her grave.

I think that she may also start releasing all the dirt she’s collected over the years on other Democrats, because she’s vindictive, and if this was truly her last shot, her fury and spite may no longer have reason to be reined in. That would be a sight to behold, if she did! I wonder if that’s why some are hesitating to tell her that the party’s over?

You got that right, over at the DUmp, there’s been a thread in which the ‘rats argued over who got (or deserved) the most benefit from Affirmative Action, at whose expense! LOL!

Or...
What if Bill were to somehow take an "unfortunate slip" in the bathtub (no witnesses but Hillary of course), it would help her get rid of unwanted baggage and win her the sympathy vote to boot. After all, who could deny the presidency to a poor grieving widow?

Funny how people around the Clintons time their deaths at such opportune moments.

Will she be made Senate Majority Leader?

The Senate gig was just for show leading to this run. If she loses this thing I doubt she'll continue to hang around mere Senators.

It took 10 years, but you might say Democrats have finally voted to impeach.

Justice delayed is justice denied. The left must be made to account for their willing blindness. The Hildebeest they refused to deal with when they could have, has slouched forward to wreak havoc with their best laid plans. Slouch on, Hillary, all the way to Denver.

Burying Caesar is fraught with danger. The intrigues snaking through the task will bring many to an early end.

The Hildebeest does not do VP.

That's a truly McNasty rhyme.

The scary thing is, the schools have been churning out loads of "useful idiots" since Michael Dukakis ran. He'd be a viable candidate today. Go to a site like "Politico". Read the comments under any article for Obama. They don't just like him, they worship him. It's really kind of freaky.
