The Super Delegates going for Obama are extremely brave!!!!
Going against the Clinton political machine is a gutsy move!!!

I imagine the Clinton's are threatening them and warning them at every turn!

So for Bill Clinton to say today that the Super Delegates are being pressured to go to Obama is a JOKE!

I imagine Bill is just mad because HIS threats are not working.

If the Super Delegates are going to Obama you KNOW they really think he has to be the nominee.

If there was ANY DOUBT then they would go with Hillary so they would not have to worry about the Clinton's stabbing them in the back!

THANK YOU Super Delegates for making the right choice!

Obama 2008!!!

1. The Clintons see de facto control of the party slipping away, and they aren't happy about it.
That's what all of Bill's nonsense is about.

17. Not yet, but they might be soon. They are so desperate because they are in hock to big
business, big pharma, big donors and God only knows what they promised to whom way back when Hillary was inevitable and was sure to be the nominee.

6. A super delegate's job is tough no matter who they support
I'm sure both campaigns do their best to be persuasive.

19. Yeah... And One Uses A Carrot, And One Uses A Stick...
I'll let you guess which one is which.

You can start by asking Bill Richardson.

7. I harbor a suspicion that Obama went to school on the Chicago machine.
Edited on Mon May-26-08 08:34 PM by TahitiNut
Daley (pere et fils) ran the most well-oiled political machine of the post-WW2 era. Despite the Chicago fiasco-in-the-streets, it was a machine arguably superior even to the Boston ward-heeling machine. Chicago politics is "postgraduate school" in the Democratic Party, and I suspect Obama was a quick study. It seems pretty clear at this point he managed to keep his hands relatively clean ... despite swimming with all manner of bottom-feeders, barracudas, and sharks. (I don't mix drinks: I mix metaphors.)

8. Remember when Camp Clinton called them "automatic" delegates, Bill?
After your team tried to change their name you want us to believe they're being bullied into voting for Obama?

:rofl:

You've really lost it, Bill. You're not even a convincing liar anymore.

12. Too bad for the Clinton's the Super's fall under the "educated" group..
The educated voters are for Obama.. Too bad for Hillary on that.. There must be some non educated supers Bill can man-handle.

15. Make no mistake,
this is the Clintons' caluclated attempt to cast doubt on the legitimacy of Obama's nomination.
