She wants Obama to lose so she can run again in four years instead of having to wait eight. By my estimates Obama just needs 79 of the 273 unpledged superdelegates to win. There is no way that isn't happening. Now that Hillary is aware of that she's already changed the number from 2024 to 2200 trying to count Florida and Michigan. She won't quit until she's forced out, she'll just keep trying to change the rules.

obama isn't exactly killing her. he's not ahead by much, and i guess she feels she still has a shot.

dewey defeats truman. remember that headline?

Within a week hopefully.

She couldn't win before tonight without convincing the party to go against popular votes, delegates, and states won -- which would spell disaster for her campaign the rest of the year...you don't get to essentially TAKE the nomination from someone else, especially the first serious African-American candidate, and still get the support needed to win. Hell, I'd probably stay home if that happened. I'd say **** her, she made her bed, now she can sleep in it.

And after last night, she is even further from being able to convince anyone that they should steal the nomination from him and give it to her. She's pulling bullshit with FL and MI. Her campaing has said from the beginning that they would play by the rules, until she started losing, then it was time to change the rules. How dare someone get in the way of her Presidency?

So I'm hoping that finally, the fact that she can't win will sink in. She at least sounded a bit more resigned to losing last night, as she very well should. I want to see her be a big person here, realize all she does from here out is harm the party's nominee, and get to work helping him get elected. I want her to prove to me that she cares about this country and believes that the party's platform is the best way to help this country, as opposed to the fact that she cares about Hillary Clinton and that only Hillary Clinton can help this country.

A year ago, Hillary Clinton topped my list of women I admired. I've camped out overnight to shake her hand and speak to her for a matter of seconds. I've defended her while up against anyone who doesn't agree with me about her. I've held her in the highest regard for years and years.

And she's ruined that. She took it away. This isn't the Hillary Clinton I respect. This is a Hillary caricature that's been created by the same old, tired hacks that helped her husband.

She needs to get out. She needs to be gracious. She needs to help Obama win and quit trying to sabotage him with transparent right-wing style attacks.

And then maybe I'll think about working on giving her back even an ounce of the insane amount of respect that I used to have for her.

Til then, she can **** off as far as I'm concerned.

I can't believe how stupid so many of you are.


It's no wonder.




Read Partners in Power:The Clintons and Their America..by Robert Morris ...written about 1996..I think ..or so.




Then tell me about "Her Grace."

Morris has made no secret about his hatred for Hillary and how he will do anything to undermine her chances. I don't know what claims he makes in this book but he's not quite what you'd call a neutral observer.

It was released....12 years ago...that's a hint.



It's very factually written....and he was never sued that I know.It was written about Bill,too.

She has never been a little innocent player...in fact seems more unsavory than her husband.


And I don't like Osama ,either.
