California is still out and Hillary's giving a Victory Speech now? |
|
Is it going to be not close and she's going to be declared the winner during her speech? Or did she tank in California and she's calling it a night?

27. I don't remember her quoting an exact number ... |
|
Edited on Tue Feb-05-08 11:04 PM by ShortnFiery
at least she wasn't tacky enough to "use this" for a "choke up" moment.
At least she had the grace not to take advantage of this ... that's a pleasant surprise.

20. You're in agreement with Barack and Michelle that she shouldn't take that "tone." |
|
How dare she use that haughty word "I" when referencing things from her perspective.

35. Yes, the undertone of all of HRC's speeches is, "It's all about Hillary's Presidency" |
|
All about HER reign - NOT truly about The American People but about The Clintonian Executive Branch. :shrug:

39. My liberal 84-year-old aunt in CA told me she voted absentee for Obama. |
|
She calls "Billary" a couple topped by a sociopath. Tired of the Bush-Clinton "legacy" -- is all in favor of passing the torch to a black/white man.
I didn't fight with her. I don't know why she feels like she does, but she is frail and wears a pacemaker. No way I want to have a knock-down, drag out email or telephone fight with her.

So I guess they canceled each other out. :hi: But isn't it great that the gray old ladies are out there voting! :)

48. Our gray lady is one wonderful woman. She is dealing with some physical issues |
|
which are truly insurmountable (needs surgery but cannot have it at her age). So she trucks on.
I wish I have half her gutsiness when I am 84.... make that an "if"!!!

1) She knows that the 11pm news in the east is coming up so she wants clips on there. And she knows most of her strong support is in the NE so she wants to thank them while they're still up.
2) She's nervous about the results in the west and her team has pushed her out there before the bad news starts coming in.
My guess? It's a little bit of both.
