Question

How much respect for the Democratic Party will you have if they turn around and try to redo the Michigan and Florida votes?  How much less (if possible) will you respect the Clinton’s?

Personally I think this points back to the Andrew Sullivan article.   The Clinton’s really are polarizing people and they don’t care if it is their own party they do it too.  Win at all costs has taken new meaning to me. 

In my opinion if they (the DNC) does go back on their word and redo the voting in any way other than what the first said they would do it will leave a bad taste in my mouth for the the entire party.  Howard Dean included.  Once they go back on their word they become just like the GOP.  It will show me that all of them, the entire party, or at least the power part of it really doesn’t care about rules or standing by their word.  It makes me sick.

Sound and Fury, Signifying Nothing

Well for all of her bluster last night, Hillary didn’t have much to show for it. According to the Obama Campaign:

Our projections show the most likely outcome of yesterday’s elections will be that Hillary Clinton gained 187 delegates, and we gained 183.

That’s a net gain of 4 delegates out of more than 370 delegates available from all the states that voted.

For comparison, that’s less than half our net gain of 9 delegates from the District of Columbia alone. It’s also less than our net gain of 8 from Nebraska, or 12 from Washington State. And it’s considerably less than our net gain of 33 delegates from Georgia.

I wonder if this will even be a bone of contention in the MSM in the next few days. Obama was down by huge margins just a month ago and closed the gap significantly, despite Clinton’s best efforts. I just wish she would hang it up.  If she wants a do over in MI and FL, I think she will be soundly whipped.

Yes, They Can

Prairie View University is an historically black university in Texas.  With all of the gerrymandering in Texas, their early voting polling place was over 7 miles from their school.  As it turns out, the Republicans didn’t put it far enough away.  This is what Obama is doing to America, and I like it.

Obamamentum…take this out of context bitches…

WASHINGTON (AP) — Barack Obama cruised past a fading Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Wisconsin primary Tuesday night, gaining the upper hand in a Democratic presidential race for the ages. It was Obama’s ninth straight victory over the past three weeks, and left the former first lady in desperate need of a comeback in a race she long commanded as front-runner.

In a clear sign of their standing in the race, most cable television networks abruptly cut away from coverage of Clinton’s rally when Obama began to speak in Texas.

Blast from the Past: Kennedy is not Ready

I was culling through some old articles by Clinton supporters and found this excerpt on a pro-Humphrey blog in 1960:

Kennedy is a great candidate, young and energetic. But with a mere 7 years in the Senate, he just doesn’t have the experience that Senator Humphrey has. Humphrey has twice as much experience in government than the upstart Senator from Massachusetts. His inexperience will limit his ability to stand up to the Soviets as they attempt to expand their influence in our hemisphere. He will be unwilling to protect our interests in Germany and will likely abandon this ally at the first sign of trouble.

Add to this that America is still not ready for a Catholic president. Sure, people say that they are ready, but we all know that those promises are left at the entrance of the polling place. Let that sink in.

Finally, if Kennedy does win the nomination, the likely Republican candidate is Richard Nixon. Think of how the experienced Nixon will tear apart the untested Kennedy in the expected first debates on television. All of America will be able to see Kennedy’s inexperience in live audio and video. Kennedy will be exposed as the politically immature fraud that he is. Then his cult following will fall apart and America will elect Richard Nixon. I don’t know if America is ready for that, either. Let’s give Kennedy a few more years to learn the ropes.

Carper = Spineless Fu@@ers!

Well it’s nice to know how Tom Carper feel about immunity. I can’t think of a better word to describe him other than spineless. The government asks the Phone Companies to break the law and spy on us, they do, subsequently they are breaking the law.

Well I guess the way Carper sees it, that’s ok. First he voted to eliminate Habeus Corpus, now this. Awesome!

Ok News Journal now that I know you are reading this blog, why NOT WRITE A FUCKING STORY ABOUT IT? OR WOULD THAT BE TOO CHALLENGING FOR YOU LIMPDICK MOTHERFUCKERS?

And Obama voting against immunity people. He was a constituitional lawyer and he gets it. 

Spying people, the government was IS spying on everything you do and ATT is helping them. But that’s ok, because we are SOOOO much safer right?

Anyone see this post yesterday? what f’ing good is spying on me doing?

these motherfuckers piss me off somedays man. Just last night

Carper, Brownback, Lieberman, Stevens, McCain voted Nea, Nay (putz)
