Only an ignorant fool could think he’s a centrist.

The truth doesn't matter, only the image and the label. I heard one of the MSM recently label Joe Biden as centrist. They could repeat as much as they repeated the daily car bomb in Baghdad until people were sick of the war.

Three black votes? Maybe. But Hollywood would spend every moment up until the election drumming into all of us how very much the “black community” loves her!

Milli Vanilli is an EXCELLENT call! Wow, those dems can really pick ‘em can’t they? Last time around they nominated Thurston Howell III, and this time Milli Vanilli!

:D

Anybody who does not believe that the Demodog superdelegates are not doing some real soul searching right now is oblivious to reality. This is EXACTLY the situation that the Demodog superdelegate situation was installed - to forestall the nomination of an unelectable, unqualified candidate. If they don’t have the guts to pull the trigger this year, they may as well eliminate the whole system and allow the left wing loonies to run nuts.

Agreed. There will be a complete revolt by the blacks if the Demodog superdelegates end up choosing Hitlery. However, they know now for CERTAIN that SnObama is going to be a disaster. ... and that is not even taking into account that (I believe with some support) the pollsters are being lied to by a good 5% or so saying they will vote for SnObama, but they actually won’t when in the privacy of the voting booth.

Now that his politics and policies are becoming known, and people are starting to pay attention, it is becoming apparent that he is not going to be able to win this election.

Even choosing Hitlery as VP will hurt him: I have a fool aunt who is (was?) a huge SnObama supporter and stated flat out to me when I asked that if he chose Hitlery for VP, she would then NOT vote for him.

I think their best chance is overriding and choosing a Hitlery nomination... however, that would really help one constituency, but cause all sorts of problems with a different core constituency.

Time to make some popcorn... for real.

I still think, as I’ve been stating for the last year, McCain will win EVERY state that Bush won, and add several others, easily. In order to score this as “landslide” he would have to bring in NY or CA... not impossible, I think, at this juncture.

The Demodogs have really bought themselves a problem now, and the superdelegate system was instituted to cope with JUST this exact situation. I don’t see how they can possibly win with hte situation the left wing loonies have given them yet again - but it is certainly up to them to do it.

very good statement of the situation: they are yet again running a a horrible candidate - thanks to their loony left.

Agreed. Notice that the polls for him are falling currently, down 52-46 at the moment. (Usually Dems poll high before an election, so they're used to being up 7 points when it's really a dead heat.)

As Obama's polls truly tank, and hit something like 62-36, even the hard-core Obama supporters will see that they have no chance, and they'll beg Hillary to come to their aid, to avoid an e-e-e-e-evil GOP victory (and the MSM will play up all the "terrible" things that "will happen" if the Dems lose).

So, it all boils down to whether or not they have the courage to do the job they were chosen to do... My money is on no, they don't have the nerve...

Yup ... I agree. I don’t think they will have the guts to do it.

They have a huge problem either way this year.
