12. Hillary will be campaigning in S Florida. McCain will be there too. |

Edited on Mon May-19-08 11:31 PM by thewiseguy
she realized that both Obama and McCain will be in Fl this week to campaign and she just had to be there as well.
Hillary is incapable of conceding or leaving this race gracefully. It wont happen.

That does not make sense...I thought she'd at least stay in until May 31, when they meet to resolve Michigan and Florida. Or maybe she wants to go out with a victory...who knows?
If she decides to concede on her own that's great, but I don't want anyone to feel like she was pushed out prematurely, so I would just as soon have her stay in until June 3.

7. Nah, she wants "Big Guns" to help promote "momentum". |
|
She'll announce that her Kentucky win "proves" that she's "the popular vote choice".
(Because caucuses don't count, red states that didn't vote for her don't count, fund raising doesn't count, total states won doesn't count, accumulated super delegates don't count, and pledged delegates don't count.)
She's been stuck on this meme for a few days, as it's all she has going for her right now.

Is she that former presidential candidate? Bless her heart.
Remember how competitive of a race it was?

That would be GREAT news for democracy. Once Hillary suits up and starts fighting for Obama we are going to get in the WH. LETS GO CLINTONS TIME TO LAY DOWN ARMS AGAINST THE PARTY AND GET TO WORK ON MC CAIN!

17. Anybody who thinks this does not know Hillary. |
|
Hillary is not a wimp like Dukakis, Mondale, Gore or Kerry. She's a CLINTON.
That means she's a fighter and -- on a level playing field -- a consistent winner.

18. How was the playing field not level? |
|
Did she not start out this year with more money, universal name recognition, and a 100+ lead in superdelegates?

20. Hillary had $140 million in the bank before Obama had $1...... |
|
Even playing field?
The poster two above me doesn't know what an even playing field is.
Obama had the entire Democratic establishment against him.... and very low name recognition.
The Clinton's political acumen is WAY overrated.... we had the congress for 40 years... and it was the Clintons that BLEW IT in 1994.
That was a collosal election fuck up. All thanks to Hillary-care.

19. Probably wishful thinking, but the required FEC reports may be ugly. |

Not that she hasn't weathered "ugly" before...
