Originally posted by MacSwainActually, she'd do Obama in if he were a threat to her plans, but she knows that come SuperTuesday, she has the organizations in the majority of those states that are going to give her all the delegates she needs, they plus the superdelegates, she has it made.
Would this be properly called, having him - "Vince Fostered"? 😲
Originally posted by whodeyBeing an "insider" could turn out to be more of a liability for Hillary than a good thing.
Ironically I think this is the way that everyone I talk to feels yet Hillary continues to win with delegates. You know it seems to me that the Clintons have the political connections to get elected. After all, her husband was a two termer. Therefore, you would probably have to give her the nomination based upon this fact. However, Obama is a problem.

Are you talking about "Super Tuesday"?
If you include the superdelegates who have announced so far, Hillary is actually up, despite the fact the she is well behind on elected delegates.
In terms of elected delegates: Obama got 1 more than Clinton in Iowa; they were level in NH; Obama got 1 more delegate in Nevada (despite losing the popular vote); and he got 13 extra in SC.
She hasn't won more delegates than him in a single one of the early states!
On elected delegates, Obama is 15 delegates ahead.
But thanks to all the superdelegates Clinton is currently 75 delegates ahead!

Originally posted by mlpriorI believe Obama will be a positive force for America, unfortunately my wallet is negatively charged. Wonder which way my money is going to flow.
Obama actually came to town yesterday and I was able to go to a rally. He was pretty good and I am refreshed to hear a young guy talking about the future of the United States from that perspective instead of the usual old school mentality.

Originally posted by mlpriorWhat was the purpose of posting that link? I watched all three vids in the series, the first 2 minutes out of 3 1/2 minutes was music and clapping, the last 1 1/2 minutes was Obama saying thank you, thank you. The next was a full minute of him saying "thank you thank you".

Is this the basis for refreshment?
Originally posted by murrowShe is not so bad. In fact, she is introducing a new and improved income tax form so that those evil rich folks can't get around their deductions. The tax form reads:
God, I hate Hillary.
I'm tempted to move to America just so I can vote to nominate Obama.
1. Enter income made for the year ____________
2. List assets now in your posession ___________
3. Add line one and two together ____________
4. Make check out for amount above ___________
Not to worry though. The Clintons I am sure will provide provisions for themselves to get around the new legislation.
