One big fact has largely been lost in the recent coverage of the Democratic presidential race: Hillary Rodham Clinton has virtually no chance of winning.
Her own campaign acknowledges there is no way that she will finish ahead in pledged delegates. That means the only way she wins is if Democratic superdelegates are ready to risk a backlash of historic proportions from the partys most reliable constituency.
Unless Clinton is able to at least win the primary popular vote which also would take nothing less than an electoral miracle and use that achievement to pressure superdelegates, she has only one scenario for victory. An African-American opponent and his backers would be told that, even though he won the contest with voters, the prize is going to someone else.
People who think that scenario is even remotely likely are living on another planet.

See my posting at #59 LOL!
I say BRING IT ON NOBAMA! I can’t wait to see that arrogant racist bigot brought back down off his pedistal. We are in deep doo doo if this moron gets the dems nomination.I’ve read other boards and the blacks are saying it is THEIR turn. Well,we shall see about THAT!Not in MY lifetime!
he can take five months of a wimp like Soros.
Bttt
It really isn't necessary is it.
Can I mention the mouth and the spewing of it?
That appears to be more of a deficiency for running for POTUS anyway. ; )
I'll be PC and just focus on his strong points.
1)
2)
3)
Awww, I just give up! ; (
That in a nut shell is Hillary's dilemma.
The best part was seeing Christopher Mathews speechless! : - D
Gee, I never looked at it that way. /s
Lest we forget Hitlery...
Seems obvious to me too, but the mediots don't seem to get it. Bill'n'Hill do though and will not throw in the towel.
The Dems should have a rousing convention what with the mud slinging, delegate wooing, histrionics, spontaneous paid demonstrations in the aisles, smoke filled rooms, crack filled rooms, backstage bribery, delusions, illusions, and hand-to-hand combat. I might even watch on TV, though The Simpsons will probably be just as funny.
...”Hillary rocks, in her own awful way.”
Good points.
But if Hillary plans to tax the h#ll out of us - and is vigorously running on that platform of expropriation - the least she can do is to show us HER tax records. Where ARE they????
Obamarama is a terrible interviewee. He always looks like his wittwe feewings are hurt by even softball questions. Or he looks petulant. Or, if he's on his game, contemptuous of the interviewers. None of this inspires confidence. I cannot bear looking at him or listening to him-- it's like watching some horrible American Idol wannabe who does NOT get to Hollywood. Makes me cringe inside.
He does deliver an inspirational speech well, however, and could be a real asset to his (chosen) race and to this country if he'd get out there with Bill Cosby and do some straight talking. He could even be a black Tony Robbins, megamultimillionaire who had huge crowds jumping up and down shouting positive slogans in unison. Many people find that energizing, motivating, and exciting. Does a lot of good for people like salesmen who get rejected every day. Really, it would probably be a great technique to get blacks who feel rejected back in the game again.
But should he make it to the White House, every Grievance Collector of color will be front and center, demanding special treatment, complaining bitterly if they feel slighted. They always feel slighted, so you see what the tone of the country would be for four years. Not pretty.
Hillary would be less horrible. She has a certain level of spunk and positive energy that might not drag the entire country into deep collective depression in the first 20 minutes of her term. How's that for faint praise?
Barry puts me in a coma in any venue. I agree about Mrs. Clinton...I never thought I’d be rooting for her. Bonnie & Clyde do not scare me anymore...we know all their tricks by now and frankly, I don’t think America wants them back in the White House.
From your lips to Gods ears. I want those people gone for good.
not to defend obama, but what are you talking about, not in your lifetime.....?
The Swamp!!!
