Let's Make a Deal

Ah, the DNC's ruling on Michigan and Florida.

Behind door number one we have:

Michigan!

Where Hillary received 55% app. and "other" received 40%.

What will happen? Will she be content with a 50/50 split? How should the DNC committee decide?


Behind door number two:

Florida!

Their elected official laughed when he screwed them out of their votes. Their elected officials should be held accountable, but should the citizens?

Who will get what?

Will Hillary FINALLY bow out gracefully?

Or, will she rip her face off, turn into a demon of the order of 'It's my party and you play by my rules' variety and continue her hapless march to the convention?


All this and more to come in the following hours.

Stay tuned...

Dont get your hopes up.

Here is a long article, The Trap: Clinton's "Briarpatch" Strategy
for the DNC Rules Committee Meeting
:

M.S. Bellows, Jr.: The Trap: Clinton's "Briarpatch" Strategy For The DNC Rules Committee Meeting - Off The Bus on The Huffington Post

I didn't read the whole thing, but the audio of Clinton conferences
setting forth her strategy over last few days is chilling.

McCain will win in November.

Hillary has a lot of protesters there. It appears that there's upwards of 20, possibly 30 people calling for Hillary to get 100% of all votes. Rumor has it that there are more but they can't be seen by the cameras because they cannot stand too long due to their age.

I hope they give her everything she wants. Then when it still isn't enough to overtake Obama's numbers at least she can't bitch about how Barak disenfranchised MI & FL voters anymore.

I've been too busy to watch much news but what I have seen doesn't pay too much attention to Clinton anymore. It seems like the rest of the country is moving on, even if Camp Clinton hasn't. By the time she gives her concession speech no one will be listening.

The snake does not care about the voters. And some of her supporters give less than a damn about this party.

They could decide to use the Michigan exit polls to determine the split.

Vote if All Candidates Were On Ballot

Clinton (46%)
Edwards (12%)
Kucinich (2%)
Obama (35%)
Richardson (1%)
