TV Nets Preparing for Hillary Concession Tuesday Night - All Signs Also Point To "Adios"
Friends and Fiends at TV Networks In NY and DC | MB26

Will keep this short.

Networks preparing for Hillary to (finally) quit in speech Tuesday night.

Will be from NY, Staffers being told to turn in expenses, resumes being FedExed to Obama and other state/local campaigns.

Staffers at one network recalled from lunches to prepare.

Campaign staffers being told to go home.

One network had long conference call among suits last night, followed by conference call between tech types to set up remotes, back-hauls, break-ins, etc.

Union technicians, cameramen, audio, video engineers, etc. told to expect overtime.

More as available

From Associated Press RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton will give her post-primary speech in New York Tuesday night, a rare departure from the campaign trail. Staffers who have worked for her on he ground in Puerto Rico, South Dakota and Montana have been invited to attend the event or go home for further instructions, campaign aides said. The New York senator had no other events Tuesday. She planned to address AIPAC Wednesday in Washington.

From "The Atlantic" Clinton Campaign staffers and former campaign staffers are being urged by the Clinton campaign's finance department to turn in their outstanding expense receipts by the end of the week. That's a sign, to them, that the campaign wants to get its affairs in order soon. If Clinton were staying in the race, there'd be no real reason to collect these receipts now; she'd still be raising and spending money from the same primary campaign account. The campaign is in arrears to the tune of about $11 million.

From one network:

"The former first lady's campaign announced that she would hold an election night "celebration" in her home state of New York, not in the final voting states of Montana or South Dakota."

The Politico website reported that far-flung members of Clinton's travelling staff had been summoned back to New York for Tuesday evening and told their roles on the campaign are ending.

But at least now McCain can (hopefully) grow a pair and show America who Obama is.

That will never happen. McCain is afraid he will win. He is throwing his base under the bus to pick up a few liberals. Too bad.

Probably means nothing, just a bump in her deluded road to the White House. She's simply giving into DNC pressure. She's beat by delegate numbers and to stay fighting would make her look as ugly and desperate as she really is.

So she concedes and behind the scenes keeps plotting - looking for something to hurt him before the convention and if need be - Arkancide. If you don't think she would kill him tomorrow, if she can get away with, you know absolutely nothing about this unbalanced bitch.

Think of all the crap she's put up with since marrying the PIG, Bubba - all the scandals, all the countless speeches and flying around the country, all the humiliation - she's lived her entire life to be President, to be a big shot.

Now she sees that chance slipping away. She'd kill him with her own bare hands if she had to - as long as she can get away with it.

That’s a one-gif stand-up comedy routine; I hope you don’t mind, but it is going to receive wide distribution. Absolutely outstanding, and I’m proud to know you (in a FR’eep type of way). Regards

Thanks, I rather liked that one.

Vote Democrat, it’s the next best thing to democracy.

All reports seem to indicate she probably will be dropping out.

Taken by themselves, it isn’t much.......but it all together looks like it is over.

I am really shocked considering JUST YESTERDAY I SAW HER ON TV SAYING SHE WOULD FIGHT ON TO THE CONVENTION (OR SO IT SOUNDED LIKE) IN PUERTO RICO.

It was a very clear statement to me that she was saying it isn’t over Tuesday.

But, all the signs today point to it being over Tuesday.

Weird.....almost like she changed her mind over the weekend.

That is what is going to happen.

You forgot the part where the MSM blames the Republicans for all of the dirt dug up during the primary (ala Willie Horton).

DANG. I’m going to owe my co-worker $10. He said she was going to quit tomorrow, and I said no way.

Nice "Gore Slap."

What kind of man says "snippy" anyway?

I sincerely expect to hear fireworks and fusillades tomorrow night in my bitterly religious gun-totin’ town in PA.

It’s a celebratory party right?

I wouldn’t be surprised to see her declare victory in some off beat way.

The Super D’s can change their minds at the drop of a hat. Or in case Barry slips on a banana peel or Mrs. Barry has a video where she screams about Whitey or you know...

Well, it was probably a journalism school graduate who referred to her as the former first lady. That is, he may not know she is a senator.
