Fear and loathing in Hillaryland, where the invincible became unelectable

I also found this cartoon of The Witch on The Times. It appears the entire world knows about Hillary Clinton.

Fact is, HRC should have won, and actually probably did/could have won more VOTES.

She blew it by giving up on caucus states, not having a post Super Tuesday plan AND forgetting the power of the way the Dems divvy up delegates in districts.

She only has herself to blame.

Yea for the end of the Clinton Era! I love how the Dim party chose the one guy the could NEVER get elected! Not cause he is Black or anything like that. Its cause he is a FAR left liberal NUT JOB! If anything the country wants a centrist, which fits Hillary FAR better than Obama, though nowhere near close enough to the center for me. McCain can beat Obama. He will be able to get the independent vote that obama does not have a prayer of getting, and THAT is gonna win the election.

“Puce faced.” Perhaps someone in the UK can translate this ?

[Dumpster Baby]

I wonder if her fortunes would reverse if Osamabama were to meet with an unforeseen accident?

I’m in the UK and I can attest that no-one says “puce-faced”. I mean no-one.

So in baseball you think the team that wins the world series in the one with the most runs - not the most games won?

If you're going to change the rules in mid-stream, why not declare that the winner is the person Bill Clinton is for - and save the money involved in letting people vote.

What a goofy article.

Iowa leftists are not conservative.

What are you talking about? Seriously...I have no idea what you are getting from my post.

I simply said that Hillary should have won, if she had campaigned properly. The fact she possibly does or could have more votes means she screwed up in her campaign. As I said, she only has herself to blame.

What that has to do with the World Series is beyond me.

Reddish brown or purple brown. This certainly describes BJ at his finger-wagging best.

H1 ain’t over (for 4 yr) until November comes without her on a ticket or she looses.

My point was we don't count total votes any more than we count "total runs" in the World Series.

In baseball it's how many games are won - and in the democrat primary it's not how many individuals voted, it's how many delegates were won.

And she did NOT win more delegates. The only way to get a win for her is to change the rules. Count it differently. In short, CHEAT. Define the rules of the race after the fact. That was my point.

[Crimson Elephant]

And my point was pointing out that she SHOULD have won, but her own campaign screwed it up by her failure to have a coherent strategy. I didn’t say she had more delegates, she clearly doesn’t, but she lost because of her silly campaign strategy.

Aw, come on. It’s not like somebody posted a picture of HELEN THOMAS!!

[reagan_fanatic]

Well....

MAYBE THEY SHOULD HAVE!!!

Pink face or ruddy complexion, maybe?

“It will be me.” —Hillery Clinton.

That little statement just had to turn a few people off.
