5. C'mon, This Is Partly Satire, But You Have To Agree . . .
Edited on Wed May-21-08 07:13 PM by Median Democrat
The fact that Rachel Maddow and Rush Limbaugh are in agreement that Hillary Clinton will take it all the way into August is pretty remarkable.

My take is that it is only 50/50. Does Hillary really have the ability to back down at this point? In other words, is this Hillary's last shot at the Presidency? I think so. So, I can understand that Hillary is going to go for broke, and throw the Hail Mary, which is her right to do so.

I think that asking the changing the rules in the middle of the game regardng MI and FL, and asking Superdelegates to reverse the primary results is incredibly un-democratic, and that we should just avoid the expense and hassle of a primary system if we are just going to let the party elders pick the nominee, but that is just my opinion.

We have this system, and Hillary has every right to pursue her rights under that system.
