If Clinton had MORE elected delegates but not enough, the Supers would still nominate Obama. It's that, or not get an A-American vote for the next 20 years.

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!

hey rikyrah,

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!

Okay, what an embarrassing first comment. Sorry, I'm new to this whole blogging thing, so I guess that I didn't recall correctly and it was a different Hillary-associated women's voting organization Women's Voice, Women's Vote who was responsible for the "Lamont Williams" calls. Someone just posted a comment to my blog alerting me to the error. The criticism still stands, but I suppose I will need to change the content of my post so as not to circulate an untruth...

Hey, I don't know if you all get to all these comments, but I thought it was worth a try. I just wanted to say that your blog has been an inspiration! Thanks for bringing me all of these things I would have otherwise missed!

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

Town,

WOw! That's right. Forgot all about that...

Now, unlike any other Nominee, he would be FORCED to take someone?

------------------

This reminds of Season 4 of THE APPRENTICE, when Randall won and Donald Chump and them were trying to make him take the white girl as a co-winner, and when Randall didn't, all the white people in the land were upset that he hurt Missy's feelings.

Yet Bill wasn't forced to take Kwame, and Kelly wasn't forced to take whoever he was running against, and Kendra wasn't forced to take whoever she was running against.

Shout out to CPL, Texas Girl & Smoothie! I'm writing you from H-Town (Acres Homes). Shout out & BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Rhondacoco for graduating (I read it on What about our Daughters-you go girl)!I'm so glad to hear about JJP blogging at the convention!!! This is great news!!

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.

I love the way Matthews questions Wasserman and leaves doubt hanging in the air.

Re: Sick of this Shyt (Yeah, I said it)

TruthSeeker — Fri, 30 May 2008 01:54:00 -0000

Michelle Bernard made a good point about Pelosi saying she'd step in to prevent a floor fight. Bernard said it would trump Hillary's sexism complaints, where she can't say the men are forcing her out etc.

Lanny looked very subdued today on Larry King. Wasserman-Schulz had a slightly softer tone on Hardball as well. It could be the "A" comments that have them chastened...I think they know there's little hope for her now.

Poblano wrote a scathing piece called ' Adventures in LannyLand' where is dismantled Lanny's Michigan arguments, piece by piece.

Made Lanny look like Boo Boo, Da Fool before it was all said and done.

A poster from Huffington Post quoted "Hillary has her head stuck up her rear-end and needs to pull it out".

Another quoted "She's searching for more delegates up there"

LOL...

Hey people,

I live in sister Steffie district.I going to e-mail her office and tell her to stop and chill out. Many Ohioans are pissed at her.She ran unopposed in the election.Many didn't vote for her.Maybe I could start a write in campaign for Louis Stokes the former occupant of her office.This nuttiness has got to stop.

Poblano? what happened?

CPL -

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.

If I never see Lanny again - it will be too soon. I think Lanny's feeling the cyberbitchslap of Poblano who schooled Lanny and made him look like a true fool.

I'm watching Larry King - Lanny's on - he seems to have lost a lot of his steam.

Joes wife is having a baby..They are waiting now...

As far as im concerned, if there trying to balance the station with a republican, hire Michelle Bernard PERMANENTLY and put her own in the mornings with Mika...

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.

Rhonda

Yes, blogger conference calls to get the message out through their blogs.

I think it's just to keep her supporters riled up.

Re: Sick of this Shyt (Yeah, I said it)

Ms.Martin — Fri, 30 May 2008 00:45:00 -0000

rikyrah

I think Malveaux is a illary supporter too.

I hardly ever watch Morning Joe - so Scarborough left - are you sure? He should have taken Pat Buchanan with him.

Smoothie,

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.
