Someone has SOMETHING on Hillary....I’d say Dean...(and a few hundred other Dems).

[Perdogg]

I think that talk is design by some people to further drive a wedge between McCain and the social conservatives. I think that talk is pure nonsense. He is interested in the Governess of Alaska.

[Sacajaweau]

You and I think somewhat alike....

Suppose Hillary "loaded" the present count (ala Rush)....sending delegates to Obama with the intention that they return to her at the convention.

[xone]

You need to get back to your drinking. She ain’t got the dough. She’ll hang around in case Dopebama falters. She’ll be the savior at the convention, not Gore. 2.5 months till Denver plenty of time for the ‘get whitey’ disclosures.

[TampaDude]

Hillary is pissing up a rope...Obama has the Dem nomination locked up. Of course, McCain will be the next POTUS.

[Sacajaweau]

An Obama and Hillary ticket might just end the Dem Party...They’re both too dirty.

It ain't no talk that drove the wedge between the RINO relic disagreeable old geezer and this conservative. He lost my vote with Kennedy-McCain.

[jacquej]

I remember that, byteback. I was a conservative even back then, but still felt so sad that our beloved country had come to this sorry mess...

[Lucas McCain]

There is no way, in a 3-way race, that any of them gets 270 electoral college votes.

[OldEagle]

It could work if HRC drops her bomb on Obama as she leaves the Dem party. Then it would be more of a two-way.

[doug from upland]

Superdelegates can change at any time. Hillary reminded us all that bad things have been known to happen in June. She might “suspend” her campaign, but she is not quitting. Sid the Snake is working 24 hours a day to find the thing that destroys Obama -— perhaps he will get a copy of the wifey’s anti-whitey diatribe video. Three days before the convention might be a nice time to release it.

[NonValueAdded]

Next move in the marathon? Why, the Rosie Ruiz option to jump ahead of BHO.

[mikrofon]

To paraphrase, “the Dems would be ridin’ the dirty donkey.”

[Sig Sauer P220]

I would not rule out a meeting between the ever lovely Mrs. Clinton and the ever charming Mr. McCain. Mrs. Clinton understands that residing on the bottom half of the McCain ticket is her quickest route to the oval office. McCain has always put himself before his party, and it seems to me, there is nothing he would not do to get the prize. He brags about reaching across the aisle, why not Hillary?

And with McCain's age, maybe no one will suspect the she-devil of having him "mysteriously" knocked off.

You are right, she would just spike the old geezer's prune juice.

[cyberslave]

Listen the Clinton's will fight Obama all the way to the convention in August. Even if he has the alleged Super Delegate support Hillary will remain in until the vote at the convention. Why should she get out? Kennedy didn't get out and he went tot he convention 700 delegates behind Carter. Why did he do that? Because he didn't know what would happen in the week before the convention or at it. In fact, if the Democrats had any brains they would've gone with Teddy and not Jimmy Carter. Carter was an easier opponent to Reagan than Ted Kennedy, even with the stain of Chappaquiddick, would've been. Clinton has the same view as Kennedy did in 1980 and she knows that come August the Super Delegates may wake up and smell the coffee. Clinton's spoke people are making a big deal about the electoral vote projections which show her beating McCain and Obama loosing to McCain. McCain has to stop debating through surrogacy Obama because he if doesn't he's going to land one on Obama’s glass jaw and TKO him before the Democrats nominate him. Remember the Democrats have to win! If they don't their party is in great jeopardy going into the 2010s. Obama can't win, but Hillary can.

I think you're right. Obama can declare all he wants, but until he's officially elected as the nominee at the convention, the race is still on.

[Anticommie]

Of course, McCain will be the next POTUS.

I wouldn't bet a dime on this one.

Where you've been in 1992? Clinton won the Presidency with 39% vote, that was one of the reasons most Republicans considered him an "illegitimate President". Slick Willy never got over this.
