you can't threaten to smear super delegates yourself, have your supporters swamping congressional phone lines with threatening racist angry phone calls, and then also use illegal robo calls to suppress voting, and get away with it.

SHE'S DONE!

here's the quote from andrew in indianapolis - who endorsed hillary the DAY SHE DECLARED SHE WAS RUNNING - just now on CNN when asked if he called the clintons to tell them he was switching to obama:

"i think that's the OLD political theater, here, where i'm supposed to CALL and ask for permission or beg for forgiveness. we all know what both of them would say and i'm sure they're GOING to say it. what they'll do is take the exact same things the republicans said about me when i was defending bill clinton and use it against me. old political theater and old politics. i'm not calling barack obama, and i'm NOT calling hillary clinton, i'm going to DO what I think is right!"

the supers are FINALLY pissed enough to stand up to the clintons and kick her right out of the race. they are PISSED! many will probably wait till after tuesday - but then, it's OVER!

expect it.
take it to the bank.
she's gone WAAAAY too far, now.

Ya know, (being the dreamer I am), maybe this is just what "Old Politics" needed as it's obituary. A candidate that uses all the old political tricks yet still goes down in flames when put up against a candidate that's trying to change things and give government back to the people.

But that would assume that there are more people in this country that pay attention to who they are voting for than people that make their decision based on the 15 second bullshit ads during "Deal or No Deal" commercial breaks.

I'd like to believe the dream, but I think we're out numbered by the "Deal or No Deal" crowd.

she's going down next week - and she KNOWS it.
she knows it, and she also knows her political career is totally fucked.

she better run for governor,
because she's NOT going to be welcome on capital hill anymore!
you can't threaten your fellow democrats and get away with it.

ding dong, the witch is dead!

believe the dream, my friend.

if you had talked to jay rockefeller's office yesterday, you'd know "deal or no deal" has lost all it's charm. she's burned her bridges.
in addition to andrew - three more super delegates have committed to obama this morning.

fooling the sheeeeople is easy - but blackmailing and stabbing your fellow congressmen in the back is fatal.

by god, i really think we may get our country back!

new poll shows clinton leading in NC

Mason-Dixon: Obama Seven Points Ahead In North Carolina
By Eric Kleefeld - May 1, 2008, 10:24AM

TPM Election Central | Talking Points Memo | Mason-Dixon: Obama Seven Points Ahead In North Carolina

A new Mason-Dixon poll of North Carolina confirms that this has state's primary has turned into a very close contest: Obama 49%, Clinton 42, a result within the five-point margin of error among 400 likely Dem primary voters.

As little as a week ago, before the re-emergence of Jeremiah Wright, Obama had double-digit leads in nearly every survey. Now, they nearly all show it to be a very close contest. Also, this poll further shows how racially-polarized the campaign is in this state: Obama has the support of 87% of blacks, while Hillary has 62% of whites.


----------------------------------------------

i read somewhere (read tooo many articles to find it again) that the poll that shows clinton leading in NC is actually just another poll that's associated in some manner to fox news. wish i could find it, and post it, but i GOTTA get to work! (damn rent!)

Looks like neither. She might be able to get the NeoCons since thier hero's term is up and there is no Republican to replace him.

Then that means John McCain will be our next president. I think Dems are finally starting to realize if they want to have another Republican presidency, Barack Obama's thier man! Us republicans don't see much of a difference. Either Hillary or McCain will be our next president. There is little difference between the two.

Hillary is the choice of right wing nut neocons with the exception of the Christians, who have noone to vote for, and the deaf, dumb and blind who are incapable of comprehending her lies, pandering, flip flopping and her overall repulsivness. She has a good chance. A very good chance.
