I hear you.
Actually, mathematically, it was truly over after Wisconsin. The rest of it has been the MSM perpetrating frauds and lies and shifting goal posts because it was good for ratings, but Chuck Todd laid it out the night of the Wisconsin Primary and said that it was impossible for her to catch him, and nothing changed.
Obama's site says 43 to go.
Only Hillary Clinton would fail to see the irony of demanding to run on Obama's ticket as VP of someone who has already beaten her, fair and square, by the book and played by the rules.
Remember, she and Bubba tried offering Obama the VP slot...WHEN HE WAS LEADING.
Oh Lord..
So many things to say about that insult.
Now, unlike any other Nominee, he would be FORCED to take someone?
FORCED to take her?
HELL NO
Their sense of ENTITLEMENT knows no bounds.
Sigh.
I'll repeat myself.
She had EVERY INSTITUTIONAL ADVANTAGE KNOWN TO THE MODERN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE...
He began from Ground Zero with NOTHING.
And, he STILL beat her.
Remember, the refusal of public matching funds was meant as an act of INTIMIDATION, because NOBODY was going to out fundraise her.
Remember, he was MOCKED AND LAUGHED AT when he said that he wouldn't take lobbyist and PAC money.
Remember, and Tim Russert played the clip AGAIN on Meet the Press...
SHE BELIEVED THIS WOULD BE OVER FEBRUARY 5TH.
Even though Obama NEVER TRAILED HER IN PLEDGED DELEGATES. And when I say NEVER, I mean NEVER. He has led in Pledged Delegates from January 3rd ON.
She never apologized for her War Vote.
She never apologized for Tuzla.
She never apologized for any of the race baiting.
So why were we surprised when she didn't apologize for the RFK statements?

Imagine if the Rules Committee partially counts FL and MI on May 31. Then, in 2012, what's to stop West Virginia and Kentucky from saying: "We're going to be the earliest states this time around, even before Iowa. What are you going to do, tell us you won't seat our delegates?"
I am afraid the Democrats often like to "fix things" with a compromise... but in the case of FL and MI, to change the rules after the game is over, even to COMPROMISE on the rules after the game is over... no good will come of this!
1 year ago
The next few days are going to be particulary hellacious, but after the last primary is over, the weak kneed Democrats are going to have to pull the plug on Hillary if they want to get the WH back. The only thing they fear more than taking a stand is being in the wilderness for four more years.
1 year ago
Andrew Sullivan points out that the turnout for FL and MI were pretty average, not spectacular.
The FL and MI turnout was much less than the turnout for other states, where the excitement over Obama motivated many people to vote. This did not happen in FL and MI.
FL and MI are simply birds of a different feather. I am really concerned about the upcoming May 31 Rules Committee meeting.

You are so wrong for that picture! I refreshed the site only to see Crazy at the top of the page.
Well, i'm hoping that Nancy and friends show some force really soon. She had an interview today and she said that it will not go to the convention. Story over at HuffPo:

Barack Obama has said that he WILL CLAIM VICTORY on next Tuesday, no matter what the rules comittee decides. He even referenced the campaigns of Jesse Jackson (poetry!) in 1988 and Jerry Brown in 1992 that went all the way to the convention even though the nominee was already determined.
That's what I'm talkin bout.

I was listening to Rachel Maddows on the way home...you know I really should start listening to music instead...anyway, she wasn't listening to the audio of the Pelosi interview in San Francisco and she heard when Pelosi said that it will not go to the convention, however, she didn't say what is going to be done to prevent it.
Especially, if Crazy doesn't get what she wants out of the Rules Committee meeting...you know where they are going to talk about the rules...
I know of the Pelosi Club...but that's only 46 people. I don't know.
All I know is if it goes to the convention...

I just caught the tail end of Wolfson's statement. Anyhoo, Obama immediately issued a statement strongly disagreeing with Father Pleghee, calling the statements "divisive" and "backwards" Plegher has also since apologized.
Of course, most of us know it was the truth. Just not needed at this time.

Since you are from the state I was born in (H-Town, to be exact), I know I was wrong for the pic, but I was thinking "Hillary = Lunatic", did a Google Search, and that picture came up. ROFL
As for Pelosi, her tough talk is coming because Cindy Sheehan is giving her a run for her money in attempting to unseat her, and Pelosi don't want to lose her seat.
She pissed off her district with that "Impeachment is off the Table" BS, and as you know, San Francisco was the FIRST American City to pass a resolution protesting the Iraq War and calling for the Impeachment of Bush and Cheney. To have their representative essentially spit in their faces after enjoying unprecedented support for more than 20 years was more than they in the Haight and Nob Hill could take.
The Bay Area has always led the charge for anti-war protests, going back to Vietnam; the Haight in the 60s was no joke.

You also have to laugh at the irony of her saying she WILL win the election, but Obama "can" win the election. Didn't she come into the primary saying she WILL BE the nominee? Running another inevitable campaign? If she CAN do it, why didn't she? She had every advantage and blew it. She doesn't deserve a 2nd chance to fuck it up again.

I don't see anything wrong with it. He caught them sleeping - just like he caught Hillary sleeping on the caucuses.
I admire a campaign that's all about the details.
I don't remember the woman who was a long time politician in Chicago who he defeated by keeping her name of the ballot, but she's a Hillary supporter. She should told Hillary about Obama.

As another displaced native houstonian blogging(acres homes)
I gotta tell you, i keep lookin and lookin for Shiela Jackson Sellout to switch that endorsement. Ive gave up hope on it. Now, like someone typed earlier, im hell bent on getting her unseated in 2010..
Justice 58
As for her unseating a Texas delegate section. I find the irony in that both laughable, and hypocritical.
1st. Collin County has about 496,000 people. 81% of which are her demographic. (white working class) it might be the only disrtict that BORDERS DALLAS she actually won..
2nd. Her unseating delegates with her trying to seat delegates from 2 states that broke the rules pretty much summarizes depths at which she'll go to win. Does anyone in her campaign not see how this makes her look like a hypocrate?
Finally, I sure hope that Someone in Chicago can find a flight for Pflueger, and Wright. Will someone tell these dudes to go to church talk about God, go home and then be free of opinion......These catz need to Shut Up!

I caught that story..What Anderson and so many Hillz Supporters fail to realize is that, Barack challenged her A. Fairly and B. not only discredited her, but every other cat who ran against him
Them catz had names on petitions in some instances that were forgeries, signed by kids, and passed around bars with people who's named didnt appear anywhere in chicago registars..
Check it out here
Its become fairly obvious that CNN feels like the REAL sore loser in this campaign. MSNBC got behind Barack Early. Everybody knows that FOX would support the devil himself if he were republican, and last but certainly not least CNN aka the Clinton News Network..They tried everything to discredit Barack.
Wolf Blitzer will run a story damn near daily about the Jewish community and there concerns about Barack..All the while leaving out the FACT that he's a past start reproter for a prominent Tel Aviv newspaper...
Lou Dobbs im convinced just flat out hates Barack....If yall start that list of peoples face we wanna see once Barack is POTUS, he's gotta be in the top-5. Im sure he goes home nightly, takes a swig of his best gin, calls Barack an uppety N#%^, kisses Mexican wife,(whom he probably secretly calls immigration on ) and passes out.
Campbell and Anderson are mere pawns to whatever Carville, Lanny Davis, Kiki Mclean and fill in the ____Clintonite..err I mean democratic strategist they have on the pay roll...With that said, this half story produced tonite by Anderson Cooper didnt shock me.
Nor didnt it shock me that CNN has YET to show that bastard up in Brooklyn (Manning) who calls BARACK every vile name in the book, and Hillary has yet to denounce..

I think viewers will see it for what it was. He merely challenged an attempt by his opponents to use invalid petitions (that were probably fraudulent) to run for office. Alice Palmer declined to be interviewed regarding the story.
I agree with you about CNN, I tune in every once in a while to see what they're up to.
Lou Dobbs - hate the racist pig.
Wolf Blizter can't hide his favor of Hillary and doesn't try to.

You crack me up.
But, you are right about Clinton News Network.
MSNBC had Chucky Todd, who told them in Wisconsin - y'all can play the Clinton bullshit game, but the numbers are the numbers. So, while they played it, they knew what was up.
CNN played the bullshit game of moving the goalposts and believed that was serious and true, and dammit, they were going to make it happen.
When they wound up with egg on their face, they don't know what to do, and STILL continue to indulge in the fantasies, while Russert breaks out the white board and his eraseables and tells you - it's over.
MSNBC has been so pleasant since Joe Scarborough went wherever he went. I can watch Morning Joe again somewhat, though Mika is a ditz.
IF CNN didn't have Roland Martin, I just wouldn't have a reason to watch. The rest of them are pissed as hell about Barack Obama. I don't think Suzanne Malveaux cares one way or the other, but Candy Crowly and Wolf and the rest of them jokers? Yeah, they hate Obama.

Rikyrah,
Im with Ms Martin, Malveaux has gave me NO indication shes objective. Atleast Dana Bash and King (the 2 republicans) try to be fair...
Youre dead on about Candy though. Something tells me her producer has to make her do it like 6 times before she gets the negativity out her tone when referencing BARACK.

Shirley Galoub is also challenging Nancy Pelosi and her commercial is funny as heck comparing Pelosi to a rubber chicken that rubber stamps everything. Yes we in the Bay Area do enjoy exercising our right to civil disobedience! I was always proud that Shrub was not inclined to leave the airport area whenever he came here so as to not be caught on tape being protested against. We were sooo close to having a Green Party official for Mayor. I think Newsom's auntie Pelosi helped out with stalling that tide. Obama did the right thing by telling people to not engage the loonies on Saturday. Let them look like idiots instead.

Only 5 more days in the hrc campaign deathwatch! I'm glad the party elders are growing a spine at the last minute. Better late than never, I guess. I appreciate that some of them have delicate situations, but it has also been suggested (by someone I know on the very outter regions of O's campaign) that the Supers have been garnering a lot of favors, attention, gifts, etc.,and that they are milking it.
I wonder if the DNC can sue hellory for breach of contract? She signed a document agreeing to abide by certain rules and didn't honor it. Aren't they all lawyers & isn't this an obvious idea? I know they don't want to look like they are beating up the mistress.
I also read somewhere that since hillbilly can't beat O fair & square, they are trying to fulfill their obligation (to whoever hired them) by weakening him, hopefully fatally. They are clearly willing to sacrifice their entire political empire....We shall see.
I have mixed feelings about Shiela Jackson Lee. I'm actually surprised that she backed hillbilly, because she is a consumate professional & highly opportunistic. I haven't heard her diss O (please let me know if you have). She is going to get on the Obama train in 5 days. I recently voted for her. There are slim pickings here in Houston in the voting dept., which is one reason that I have seldom darkened the doorstep of a polling place. Let's face it. Tom Delay is from here. There are a lot of klansmen on the ballot. We recently got rid of the district attorney (Chuck Rosenthal) who got busted sending racist jokes by city owned email. He was in a long time before he got caught. If I have to pick between Sheila & a klansman, I'll go with Sheila.

So I just wanted to say with regard to the long-overdue retreat of the Hillinator, have you guys seen this article from Huffington Post today?
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/30/clinton-rally-organizers_n_104240.html
(I hope that link works) Anyway, these WomenCount folks are the same ones who, during the NC (where I live) primaries, sent out those strange "Lamont Williams" robo-calls specifically to majority-black precincts. I wonder why it is that everyone has forgotten this when they show up to protest the disenfranchisement of MI and FL at the DNC rules and bylaws committee meeting only a month or so later. How do these people have any credibility at all to be incensed about the disenfranchisement of any voters? Thought I'd pass it along and see if anyone else had any news about them. I have also written more about this on my own modest blog www.roadkillpolitics.blogspot.com

thanks for linking to my "7 worst things to happen to black folks" - I was wondering where all of the random traffic to that old post was coming from!
I'm not a political blogger by any means but since I'm on the mic, I'm wondering why Flager is catching any flack when Saturday Night Live made the same exact joke about Hilary - "I deserve it." If enough people believe that about her then why can't it be said within 10 feet of any building that Obama's ever been in, let alone by Obama himself? In fact, I think that the reason I don't discuss politics much is how sad it makes me that people buy into this generated significance of anyone with even the most tenuous of connections to Obama poppin' off at the mouth...it all just makes me feel kind of ashamed yet justifiably superior...not good for my ego at all...
keep up the great work!

What's with you guys? Obama has no agenda, not even enough experience to be in the U.S. Senate, and you want him to President? Because he's black? The most liberal in Congress? He wants "change" and he offers "hope". What a bunch of idiots!
He harps on McCain as being a Bush third term, ignoring that he will be the not-wanted Jimmy Carter second term.
I hope he wins it all. There won't be a Dem in the WH for 30 years after BHO screws things up.
Go, baby, go! Burn, baby, burn!
