I get it now. I understand. Hillary will not concede even though she can't win.

Through the will of Democratic Party voters, Hillary cannot win. But she will also not concede. She is not fighting this fight because she believes her policies are better than Obama's, for theirs are quite similar. She is fighting him because he is a threat. He is a threat to the Party Establishment who told her she could be president. How dare Obama barge in without paying his dues and presume to campaign without permission! It was HER turn! The voters have indeed been unruly, failing to take their orders properly from before the primaries that Hillary was inevitable, and that they should bow down and accept it. Like disrespectful children, they voted and continue to vote for someone else.

This must not be permitted, they say. Hillary Clinton will destroy the ability of the Democratic Party to win in November before she allows Barack Obama to be president. Because this is not Democrat vs. Democrat. This is the Elite control of government vs. popular democracy. That's why she's praising McCain at Obama's expense. That's why she will never concede despite her inability to win in a straight contest. Because she has taken sides, and it is not ours. In her mind, the Democratic Party can suffer another loss if it means preserving the system of establishment control in Washington, D.C.

She's not going anywhere. Either by stealing the election from the will of the voters, or dogging Obama until November. Hillary's mission, when before it was becoming president, has been redefined: Stop Barack Obama at all costs.

hey, the GOP knew this a year ago. you kids are kinda slow over there  :popcorn:

I dunno.

Earlier today, there was a bonfire started by the kaput primitive, kpete, in which the kaput primitive said Karl Rove is just about to be indicted.

So we might now have Karl around for long, if he's being sent to the big house.

I should have saved that thread, but the governor of New York sort of disrupted my notion of what's important, and what's not.

The Rove must be one of the best actors I've ever seen! He looked so happy and relaxed this afternoon on FOX discussing the implications of what the Spitzer situation would mean for Hilary's campaign.

And speaking of Hilary, did I call that one right or what? Hilary said "NO COMMENT" once... just once. :-)

Does this idiot realize that B Hussein O has to win 75%-plus of the remaining delegates to secure the nomination?

That too is all but impossible according tot the latest polls.

What this idiot wants isn't for Hillary to drop-out but for Hillary supporters to not vote for her.

It is an interesting point to ponder but not for the reasons the op thinks.

If Sen.Clinton doesn`t get the nomination one wonders how much support she will be extending to Sen.Obama.
She would be a viable candidate in 2012 but not in 2016 so she may not be all that interested in seeing a dem victory in Nov.

It would only be in her own self interest if she was looking to sandbag Obama.
