Hillary Clinton's most senior advisers are in a state of "panic" about her presidential prospects and are plotting to enlist Democrat leaders in Congress to thwart her rival Barack Obama's ambitions.
--
The Clinton camp hopes to stop the Obama bandwagon by winning Texas and Ohio primaries on March 4, after which Mrs Clinton is planning to call on party grandees including Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House of Representatives and Harry Reid, the party's leader in the Senate, to persuade Mr Obama to stand down.

How many of those voting on the Pubbie ballot were cross-over voters, i.e., Independents, or Dems who knew their delegates would not be assigned at the Dem convention and chose to play with the Pubbies primary? If memory serves me correctly (former FL resident), didn’t voters have to register no later than 30 days prior to the primary?
Disagree. Drug use is a résumé enhancer for Democrats.
Thanks, I must have been brain washed by the MSM. I think I heard the turnout numbers at around 60% and the Dems. were ahead then because most had voted early.
Anyone who believes that has forgotten the death grip of Bill Clinton's eight years in office, 900+ FBI files, and the thuggery of both the Arkansas mob and the NYT.
If Hillary gets the nomination, she's in. And if she's in, she'll control everything because the word "delegate" doesn't exist in her vocabulary, and she will fill Washington with like-minded lesbian gym teachers.
If by some fluke Obama were to win, he'd have Congress checkmating him at every turn.
IMO we can argue amongst ourselves and vote accordingly throughout the primary process, but once a nominee is settled upon at the convention, we MUST get behind that nominee to mitigate the damage that would be produced by either Dem option. I value my principles, liberties and freedoms left to us by our Founding Fathers and wish to not lose them. Once they’re taken we may never get them back, and that would be to the detriment of our nation.
There’s no way of knowing. I saw one news report that talked about voters reregistering, but more were going from R to D than vice versa. Bad news in a swing state like Florida.
I think McCain won Florida because we have a large voting demographic that gets their news from the MSM, so the only thing they knew about him was that he was war hero.
Besides, if it comes out too close, they will just say...”look at florida and michigan, hillary won those, lets give them back their delegates for the purpose of a ‘tie-breaker’”
I think her big problem is that if she doesn’t win outright, which now seems won’t happen, then black voters will be turned off. The only chance she would have to reclaim them would be to take him as her running mate. What kind of deal would have to be made to get him to agree to take the 2nd spot before a convention crisis?
I couldn't agree more. His inexperience and far-left pie-in-the-sky ideas mean that he won't be very effective. Hillary knows how to make things happen. He doesn't. She's much more dangerous than he is.
It sends chills down my spine to think of either one of those Commies as President.
They talked about this but it won’t happen because of the expense.
That is EXACTLY the point. The Clintons HAVE a record and it certianly is not one to be proud of. Yes sir, they have a record of destroying people.
Obama has showed me he was able to come from nowhere and look where he is now. He has smarts and sincerity. He's a quick learner.
Any idea where this info about J.C. Watts came from? I’ve been around him enough to think this is non-sense. However, I think he left congress because the party dumped on him. There was a tank or something like that which would have required training in his district. He pushed hard for it, but it was dropped anyway.
....generally speaking Arkancide starts after they get into the White House...
I respect you opinion, but I disagree. I think Hill and Bill and their merry band of unindicted co-conspirators would move back into the White House and continue down the road to socialism without missing a beat.
Obama would be starting from scratch. He doesn’t have any executive experience, even less than Bill and Hill did in 1992 and would have to do a fair amount of reinventing the wheel. I think over four years he would get a lot less done.
Twist in that wind "Hill," twist and shout!
If conservatives started saying right now that they all supported McCain 100%, he would have no reason to pursue them. I want to see conservative voters pursued and convinced by McCain so we will not be ignored by him.
The other side of me thinks Obama would be much harder to beat in November

Read the 10 beliefs. If he’s hard to beat with that info out in public, we’re in big trouble!
No, in fact I hadn’t heard any of these things about JC before today. That doesn’t mean they aren’t true, I’m just not that interested in researching them. What his siblings have done has no effect whatsoever on my opinion of him.
Also the patterns of mold and migratory routes of parasites.
