Payback is sweet, even though Hillary would be the weaker Democratic candidate in November!

It w/b sweeter, and wiser, to vote for her now, and against her in Nov.

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.

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,

This is PRECISELY what happened here in Virginia last week.
The number of republicans who crossed over and voted for Obama as a “shut Hillary OUT!” movement was huge. It was an easy decision for a dyed-in-the-wool Hillary-hater. McCain is gonna have the Republican nomination anyway, that’s now obvious to everyone.

(Maybe even to Hucka-bee-nejad, although who knows what’s really going on in that guy’s head.)

I’ll vote for McCain in November…UNHAPPILY FEELING LIKE I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DO SO, since I’d have far preferred Fred or Mitt over Maverick. I’d vote to end Hitlery’s career (since I’m not convinced Mack would have necessarily beaten her in November anyway) in a primary, but would never EVER vote for a lib in the general.

It’ll be interesting to see what y’all do down Texas way in 2 weeks.

So, actually it only matters if you can’t stand hearing one of their voices at all. In my case, her voice. Hearing her literally sends shivers up my spine and my whole body shudders in terror and abject dislike.

When I hear her, it sounds like vultures screeching.
Hence, freedom of screech.

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

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

Does it really matter?

They both say the same thing.

MrSteve on February 19, 2008 at 10:34 PM

Which is to say, they say nothing.

“…restore Americas Moral Authority…”

Ugh.

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

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.

Obama or his advisers should realize that with Hillary as VP you get Bill as well.

That would be a very crowded administration. Hill and Bill would “suck the oxygen” (to borrow an excellent phrase about the Clintons) out of each and every photo op.

Obama may be the man of the moment, but Bill and Hill own the heart and soul of 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!

“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.

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.

He never shuts up.

Four years of “important” speeches. Wonderful.

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!

I’m still rooting for Hillary to steal this thing.
