Afternoon Open Thread
I'm tired of people pretending that this campaign has featured an equal amount of attacks from both sides. It hasn't, and we all know who started attacking first. Whenever somebody makes that claim, I start tuning the rest of their argument out.
She will use the time to her advantage, hoping that Obama makes a mistake she can exploit. Obama is digging himself deeper and deeper, everytime he brings up Rev. Wright, and more questions regarding his electability may arise. THIS IS HER CHANCE. You may think it is slim to none, but it is all she has, and she will see it play out until the convention.
All this talk of destroying the party is hysterical nonsense. If Obama supporters are so confident that he's got it in the bag, if she truly has no chance, what's the harm in seeing Hillary carry her losing cause to the convention?
She will look pathetic, and he will look heroic, for winning fair and square.
The more Obama tries to force her out, the more resolved and entrenched her supporters become.
Better to let them cross the finish line in Denver miles behind Obama, than to be accused of trying to stop the race in the middle before there is a clear winner.
-Fracturing the Democratic Party by being stubborn.
"She will look pathetic, and he will look heroic, for winning fair and square."
Wrong. The Media will frame it as Hillary being wronged.
I disagree.
Hillary supporters want a Democrat in the White House.
McCain will appoint conservative judges to the Supreme Court, threatening Roe v. Wade, which is the premier issue for women for Clinton.
The media is turning against Clinton. Many cable anchors, Copper, Matthews, Olberman, make no effort to hide their enthusiasm for Obama.
Right wing commentators would love to see the end of the Clintons, sooner than later.
I say let her play it out. Obama should treat her as an annoyance, a gnat, and turn his sights to McCain now.

Fact check: Obama is not now nor has he ever tried to force her out except by winning primaries.
Superdelegates can make their choices known right now. More than half of them already have. What are the uncommitteds waiting for exactly? Even if all the superdelegates made their choices known now, it would be left up to the voters in the remaining states to put one of them over the top.
What a concept. The voters would decide the nominee afterall.
And if anyone thinks that Jeremiah Wright's words makes Obama less electable than Hillary Clinton's own exaggerations, lies and fabrications, well, then they're ducking under sniper fire as I type this

heeheeheeheehee
Right. How naive are you guys? Plausible denability is alive and well at Camp Obama.
Superdelegate supporters jump into in the trenches to fight, and Obama heads for the high ground.
I'm no fan of Hillary...but keep it real.
Again, what is to fear from letting her go to the convention and losing?
Or...
Hillary drops out, Obama implodes. Enter Gore to save the day!
Gore/Obama '08.
Obama '08
I trust nothing out of Camp Hillary. The kool-aid drinking over there is so reminiscent of Bush... and Manson.
And, again, I think that Hillary herself is the biggest kool-aid drinker of them all. I've had this feeling for a while, but the details of the sniper fire story have cemented this: Hillary (and I will not let her off the hook as so many others have by insisting that it's always others, and she's always innocent of what's happening within her campaign) tells people all this mess because SHE BELIEVES IT.
I still don't know what Bill's part in all of this is. Rasputin?
And, she has been the nastiest of the two all along, either her husband, her some of her cronies and other assorted surrogates who have been using fear as the only reason she should be nominated, very Rovish. And, some are now saying she is a victim, of what, not getting her way because she is The Hillary R. Clinton???
PA and NC need to step it up and vote for Obama. I think he'll be that much stronger for the struggle in November. Obama should just keep on doing his thing. He's been battling all three of them, lately, so why stop now?
and yes, Isay three - Hillary, Bill, and McCain.
On a different note, what did the clintons promise Bob Johnson for him to be so hardcore for HRC? Apparently, this is messing with his $ and he's not havin' it.
They're going to vote her @ss out! An Obama supporter interviewed said he was pissed that Sheila would go against her constituents! Sheila's district went 90/10 for Obama! Is Sheila Jackson Lee insane? She is going to lose her job in behind that lying, dirty politicing Hillary!
These people have voted for Sheila overwhelmingly for years! She's f%%%ed!
The fastest way to get the Clinton's out of the race is for donations to dry up. I'm sure they took a hit after the Bosnia story and will take another when they release their taxes. In the meantime they must create the illusion of supporter endorsement through donations to justify staying in.
