MrSteve on February 19, 2008 at 10:34 PM

Anything to stop that health care speech. What is she trying to do? Guilt voters into saving her?

AbaddonsReign on February 19, 2008 at 10:34 PM

Thank you Barry O for cutting that off.

Wow, Hillary sounds even more shrill than usual. She know’s she’s beat and she’s in a RAGE.

I’d watch out Barack. I’m sure Hillary has a few connections that will end your candidacy by, shall we say, default.

BKennedy on February 19, 2008 at 10:37 PM

“Tacky” indeed, and uncivilized in a free country, no matter who does it (not that I could watch either).

Entelechy on February 19, 2008 at 10:40 PM

Wow - talk about total karma. Give 3 non-concessions in a row which is totally classless of the classless Hillary Clinton, and Obama had had enough. She scheduled her speech for 8:30, he then set his for 9:30, then she delayed his and filibustered. IF YOU ARE NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE ELECTION RESULTS YOU ARE JUST GIVING A STUMP SPEECH. The arrogant, classless Clinton got exactly what she deserved.

at Politico, it appears Hillary got just what she deserved

Proving a Messiah always trumps a Queen.

fogw on February 19, 2008 at 10:45 PM

Didn’t Obama specialize in “present” votes? The dudes a pantload, I tell you.
Mother Hillary will insure all of us. B Hussein Obama will leave out 15 million??? Why, the horror. He’s not even a good communist!
I was wondering why all of the plants in my home were blooming this evening. Now I know. The Messiah is only a few miles away in Houston tonight. I wonder if he’ll be hanging around later to heal the sick. My old dog had arthritis and I’ll throw him in the back of my truck and get him up there if BHO is laying hands tonight.

Sugar Land on February 19, 2008 at 10:48 PM

Okay…how many people think Independents crossed over since McCain has already wrapped it up (more or less) and helped drive the stake just a tiny bit further into Hillary’s heart tonight in Wisconsin by voting for the Messiah?

It could work since Obama is obviously starting to believe his own hype, but I don’t think Independents will vote for him in the general election. Although, honestly, I’ve never trusted Independents much.

SouthernGent on February 19, 2008 at 10:49 PM

For Hillary, it’s over. I don’t see any way she can pull this off now. Obama is the nominee.

bnelson44 on February 19, 2008 at 10:40 PM

I hope you are right, but she will burn the Riechstag down before conceding.

Starlink on February 19, 2008 at 10:54 PM

Sweet Jesus, these two scare me. When did we decide there was a freaking “right” to health insurance? And a right to a frozen mortgage interest rate? And a right to free college? This just get’s whackier every day….

Tim Zank on February 19, 2008 at 10:55 PM

This guy can talk more and say less than anyone I’ve listened lately.

rplat on February 19, 2008 at 10:36 PM

typical pompous liberal, its a requirement. They are simply trying to bully us with their ‘intellect’.

jp on February 19, 2008 at 10:57 PM

Uknown Obama scandal in 5…4…3…2…

SouthernGent on February 19, 2008 at 11:00 PM

Trying to out liberal each other, while the electorate is slightly to the “Right of Center”, good luck with that..

Either one will lose in the general, both Hillary and Obama are extremists from the left.

Chakra Hammer on February 19, 2008 at 11:01 PM

I say Hillary voters might give McCain a look, along with those independents.

No, I don’t think so. Obama is basically Bill Clinton 2.0.

terryannonline on February 19, 2008 at 11:03 PM

We must all remember that these white, uber-liberal, democrat primary voters are the same ones who walk around full of white guilt. He really IS their “magic negro” in their warped view. Normal white people don’t have this problem and will base their vote on the issues. Clearly, the general will be easier than the pundits may claim.

SouthernGent on February 19, 2008 at 11:04 PM

There just isn’t much that Hill can contrast with Barak and BillyHilly has already been busted for it.

Speakup on February 19, 2008 at 11:04 PM

She know’s she’s beat and she’s in a RAGE.
BKennedy on February 19, 2008 at 10:37 PM

Ya wanna see rage? Wait until she finds out Barry stepped on her speech tonight.

Boy, glad I ain’t gotta be around her hotel tonight.

conservnut on February 19, 2008 at 11:14 PM

f you follow the 2nd link in your post you’ll learn she didn’t give a concession speech. Reportedly Obama was willing to wait if she did, then went ahead with his speech when it became clear she wasn’t going to.

bdfaith on February 19, 2008 at 11:04 PM

The lack of humility alone will not sit well with Texas and Ohio…..Dick Morris actually pointed this out the other day and it does speak volumes about her character.

Starlink on February 19, 2008 at 11:17 PM

Obama opposes a ban on partial birth abortion ban, and who voted against a bill that would require medical care for aborted fetuses who survive.

This guy is a real winner.

bnelson44 on February 19, 2008 at 11:22 PM

I am but a mortal, but a forgiving one.

fogw on February 19, 2008 at 11:04 PM

So glad to be saved for another banter, by a forgiving mortal, in who’s sphere I rejoice to dwell :)

Entelechy on February 19, 2008 at 11:28 PM

A couple of months ago I was an agnostic but the endless blathering without content converted me.

I had actually signed up a few months to volunteer in Obama’s campaign. They called me the other day and I said “no.” I was waiting for content and a sign that we had some moderate tendencies. I never got that. I was willing to vote for him and even campaign for him but I changed my mind.

He probably views them as a non-viable tissue mass. He’ll go out of his way to save a terrorist from “torture”, though.

SouthernGent on February 19, 2008 at 11:33 PM

terryannonline on February 19, 2008 at 11:32 PM

You’re maturing nicely terryann, and rapidly. Hang around here and your independence may take you far.

Entelechy on February 19, 2008 at 11:36 PM

She is finally paying a price for her pathetic behavior.

I’m not aware of any candidate that has ever displayed less grace and humility.

Her displays of denial only serve to bolster the idea that she doesn’t have what it takes to be in a position of leadership.

Sore Loser.

Dorvillian on February 19, 2008 at 11:48 PM

MrSteve on February 19, 2008 at 10:34 PM

Yes, and it is all meaningless air except when they propose a move toward Marxism then the say something very scary.

I think either one will ask the other the be their VP.
If Obama gets the nod and has Cankles as his VP , well just remember Vince Foster.

TheSitRep on February 20, 2008 at 12:09 AM

I think either one will ask the other the be their VP…

TheSitRep on February 20, 2008 at 12:09 AM

Dear TSR, she would ask him, but Obama will never ask her. Too much bitterness. He’ll finish her off in more ways than one.

Entelechy on February 20, 2008 at 12:13 AM

Hey, are you all seeing the results coming out of Washington. They are surprisingly close.

terryannonline on February 20, 2008 at 12:17 AM

terryannonline on February 20, 2008 at 12:17 AM

No delegates are at stake in the Washington Primary. They were all awarded after last week’s caucus. Don’t ask me why they do this.

There are Republican delegates at stake however and according to Politico, Huckabee is running behind Other which does not include Ron Paul’s 7%. I wonder who that Other guy could be. Hmmmm…

Greenhorn on February 20, 2008 at 12:40 AM

In reality, Barack Hussein’s meaning of “change” isSelfishness:

1 - First Black president.

2 - First Muslim president.

3 - First Black ‘first lady.’

To think otherwise is to be extremely naive.

“Change” in Hussein’s mind is:

1 - to take and waste your money on building African and other “poor” Islamic nations,(more than Bush is spending, by the way) i.e. to help his “Muslim brothers,” while 45 millions Americans can’t afford to have health insurance, while many veterans are homeless, while poverty is a stain on the face of the “richest country in the world,” etc., etc.

2 - on surrendering to Al-Qaeda and to the Muslim world supporters of terrorism, or as the Muslims call it “Jihad against the Great Satan,”

3 - on considerably reducing the Military and withdrawing before finishing the missions,

4 - on opening the borders and granting all current and future “illegal” visitors from the South and the North full residency and citizenship,

5 - on appointing many Muslims in the White House, the Cabinet and the courts to pass laws to accommodate the Muslims and the Sharia,

6 - on, of course, courting, sleeping with, and opening the White House to terrorists and their supporters (oops, Jihadists) like CAIR, Hizbollah, Hamas, Iran’s president, the Black Panthers, Soros, the Hollywood Idiots, the Nation of Islam, the ACLU and MoveOn.

7 - on openly declare himself a Muslim after being situated in the White House,

8 - on establishing a Mosque inside the White House for those Muslim employees and himself,

You get the picture. You think it will not happen? Wait and see.

And for those idiots who are fooled by speeches, one word: You are screwing yourselves and America.

Enjoy, you morons!

Well,I believe since Bill Besmirched the African American
voter,chimed in the “Fairy Tale” remark,coupled with Hillarys arrogant and I demand the superdelegates hand the
nominee to me crap,add in the media is tired of the Clintons
and presto,Hillary welcome to your nightmare,and don’t
forget to thank your husband————-Slick Willy!

canopfor on February 20, 2008 at 2:31 AM

So, the Hope and Change train begins to pick up speed with the savior of America at its throttle.

In analyzing his speeches, the Hope and Change he keeps referring too means that he Hopes to confiscate more of our Change in order to support his socialist agenda.

Obama is ‘The emperor with no clothes’ having nothing to offer but platitudes as his followers divine things in his words that aren’t really there, and not realizing that what he wants to do will, in the long run, hurt them.

pocomoco on February 20, 2008 at 5:57 AM

I love it when Shillary loses it in front of the masses.

“YOU BETTER VOTE FOR ME IF YOU WANT HEALTH CARE! BECAUSE IF YOU DON’T VOTE FOR ME, YOU WON’T GET HEALTH CARE AND YOU’LL DIE! YOU HEAR ME! YOU’LL DIE! YOU’RE ALL GOING TO DIE IF YOU DON’T VOTE ME! YOU HEAR ME?! HUH?! YOU HEAR ME?!

Of course, then B.O. gets up and spews about 45 minutes of what amounts to empty air.

Only difference was he was grinning. Of course, he also just pulled Wisconsin right out from under the Shillster.

pilamaye on February 20, 2008 at 7:07 AM

I think what this really shows is that Team Clinton is losing the MSM.

I watched as Fox cut away to Obama quickly and then I flipped over to CNN, where they did the same —

Both network’s “set up” comments were of the “We need to cut away to something IMPORTANT now” style.
I didn’t check out MSNBC … my remote control’s survival instinct won’t let me punch that one up.

That was a BIG shoe dropping …
If Team Clinton feels they are loosing the MSM’s attention … standby, they know how to get it back - SHOCK AND AWE!

Chimp 6 on February 20, 2008 at 8:19 AM

“healthcare is a right, not a priviledge..”

“…restore Americas Moral Authority…”

Ugh.

southsideironworks on February 20, 2008 at 8:35 AM

She’ll say sorry after she finishes paying off those delegates.

Greenhorn on February 20, 2008 at 12:40 AM

As I recall, approximately half of the GOP delegates were awarded at the caucus, and the half last night.

fourstringfuror on February 20, 2008 at 10:01 AM

Not only will Hillary not pick up the majority of delegates from Texas; she will lose the popular vote there badly. Many Republicans like myself will vote in the Texas Democratic Primary to defeat Hillary. I have been seething ever since she blamed her husband’s troubles on “the vast right-wing conspiracy.” Payback is sweet, even though Hillary would be the weaker Democratic candidate in November!

ptolemy on February 20, 2008 at 10:33 AM

terryannonline pegged this race for the Dem nomination last night:

08 D nomination fight = 92 general, where
Obama = Bubba;
Hillary = GHWB; and
Hope is more important than reality.

I remember the last two weeks of the 92 general. Standing at a Bush rally, with waffles being thrown in the air and the on-site MSM being heckled and booed, saying to myself “How on Earth are we losing to a man with all the ideas in the world and no way to pay for them?”

Team Clinton, I’m certain, is feeling my pain the same way today.
