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.

Just remember that what we read about them is what they want us to read about them.

[Diogenesis]

Exactly. There has been proven, systematic, pro-DNC media Bias.

Why would ANYONE think they would stop now?

Looks like Arkancide is the only alternative at this point.

FoxNews reported this morning that only 25 delegate votes separate Obama from Clinton.

You can bet ashtrays and lamps are flying in Team Clinton HDQ.

Maybe the most recent Clinton teary-eye photo-op (#3, IIRC) has become old hat and is not longer swaying many voters.

I can see it now, McInsane will not be able to convince Republicans to unite for him so it’ll be Hill/John ‘08.

Just remember that what we read about them is what they want us to read about them.

I suspect some in of the MSM are backing Obama .

[DooDahhhh]

Yep, i keep looking for bad news coming Obama’s way.

Gee Hillary, you and your reprobate criminal “husband” never did play by the rules -— WHY START NOW?? For honest people, elections are determined by VOTES -— but that leaves you out, as history has proven.

LOL, Step Down???? Kind of like the Patriots asking the Giants to step down as Super Bowl champs. Hillary has gone off the deep end if this is true.

This is going to get interesting once the Super Delegates get involved!

[tanknetter]

With the GOP nomination race pretty much decided and McCain destined to lose the general election due to Conservatives staying home, I’m probably going to pick up a VA Dem ballot next Tuesday and vote for Obama. I the Dem is going to win regardless, I’d MUCH rather have him in the White House than Billary.

Hill/John ‘08

That thought has bounced around my head a few times lately too. Are there any constitutional impediments to that? Can't think of any off the top of my head (except the "cruel and unusual punishment" thing!).

Interesting. I wonder if they'll toe the line.

At what point do there become too many “inconvenient people” for her to have killed.

From the article re: Osama, er,,,,,,Obama
“They now fear that he could pick Colin Powell or former congressman JC Watts, both of whom are African American, as his running mate.”
