It's over! Hilary is conceding today..
« on: June 03, 2008, 10:20:42 AM »
and now Obama is ours...  :evillaugh:


i just caught a bit of FOX this morning where the anchor said to the Clinton Campaign Gal: "ya know, YOU keep saying the math is different. everybody else gets different math... you look pretty cheerful but your heart must be breaking."


i loved that part.  :-)

apparently there is a huge contingent of reporters outside the Clinton's home in New York.

and dammit i have a life going on today..  :popcorn:

Clinton won't concede nomination Tues. night, campaign says

Last update: 11:34 a.m. EDT June 3, 2008
 
WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton won't concede the nomination for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination Tuesday night, her campaign said Tuesday. In a two-sentence email to reporters, the campaign said an Associated Press story about Clinton's intentions is wrong. "The AP story is incorrect. Senator Clinton will not concede the nomination this evening," a campaign statement said.

Think she'll be asked to be VP?  I don't.

If that's the case, I wonder just how strongly she'll endorse BHO?  She'll do her little speech at the Dem convention, but I highly doubt she'll stump for him.  Wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't try and undermine him.  She's not getting any younger and 2012 is a lot closer than 2016.

As great as that is, I'd rather see her keep on going to the convention and cause a meltdown there (that may happen anyway, but it's not looking to be as likely now).

Now we'll be getting two months worth of Obamamania, halo pictures and magazine covers, and puff pieces. On the other hand, we'll see cries of racism from the zombamies at anyone who even looks at him wrong, much more focus on McCain, who won't even go after Obama, and more fine examples of why the republicans were voted out on 2006 with the trend continuing in November (i.e. voting for liberal bills, interested only in staying in power, earmarks, pork, etc.)

Obama will most likely lose, but I just hope the republicans get off their rumps soon and take advantage of this blindingly bright, golden opportunity here. The last thing this country needs right now is Carter 2.0.

if it's up to him, there's not a snowball's chance in hell.  why would you want the media obsessed, semi psychotic
clintons hanging around in a hypothetical obama administration?  if it's up to her, well, do you go back to the senate,
where every one of your senate colleagues endorsed the other guy?  and while she certainly doesn't want to be VP
for what could turn out to be 8 years, she may want to be VP nominee, where she could sabotage him in the general
election, thus clearing the deck for her to make another run on 2012?

and if it's up to the party, you are almost desperate for him to pick her as his running mate, or run the risk of alienating
(what the MSM derides as) the "white working class", seniors, and women.

That's my girl.   Bloodbath on the DNC convention floor -- anything short of that will be bitterly disappointing.  I want this party so viciously divided that McCain can phone it in to win. 

Hillary Clinton concede to "that" man?   N-E-V-E-R.   The mud is coming soon enough.

Heh, quite the spot she's in now.  Playing second fiddle to BO??  Only when if it's up to her.  If she does run as veep, they'll win, and he'll run again in 4 years.  OTOH, if she sits this one out, McCain will win.

Either way, she loses.   :cheersmate:

i think her backup plan is to undercut him every chance she gets til November - and then come back again in 2012. she feels she has a mandate this year... she will be back.  :popcorn:

i agree with all that you said, other than McCain not taking any shots at Obama... he definitely has in the past few weeks. He called Obama a whiner and shot down his opinions on Iraq; McCain has let virtually nothing slide by, but he keeps it focused on the Barackstars!! political opinions, and nothing personal. I can live with that.

Clinton set to concede delegate race to Obama

WASHINGTON (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton will concede Tuesday night that Barack Obama has the delegates to secure the Democratic nomination, campaign officials said, effectively ending her bid to be the nation's first female president.

Obama is 37.5 delegates shy of clinching the nomination, but he is widely expected to make up the difference Tuesday with superdelegate support and votes in South Dakota and Montana. Once he reaches the magic number of 2,118, Clinton will acknowledge that he has secured the necessary delegates to be the nominee.

The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City.

She will pledge to continue to speak out on issues like health care. But for all intents and purposes, the two senior officials said, the campaign is over.

Most campaign staff will be let go and will be paid through June 15, said the officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to divulge her plans.

The advisers said Clinton has made a strategic decision to not formally end her campaign, giving her leverage to negotiate with Obama on various matters including a possible vice presidential nomination for her. She also wants to press him on issues he should focus on in the fall, such as health care.


So she's gonna quit before she doesn't quit.  She's been hangin' out with $kerry again.   :mental:

Looks like the article saying she not going to concede is just more Clintoon doulble talk.   :whatever:

When it comes to the war, that is true, but on domestic policy issues (taxes, health care, the fact that Obama is a full blown Marxist, etc.), I'm a bit more skeptical.
