WTF is Hillary blabbering about? No, really! As she gone off the deep end for good? Why in the wide wide world of sports would she bring up Bobby Kennedy’s assassination as her reasoning for not dropping out of the Democratic race?

“My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Robert Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it.”

Is she inferring that the only reason she isn’t giving up is because of the possibility that Obama may be assassinated? Is this, in her mind the only way she feels she will get the Democratic nomination is by sitting tight and waiting to see if anything happens to Obama? These words alone are disturbing enough, but given the fact that she said them in that context makes me question her mental thought process!

When a reporter asked her if she buys the argument that Democrats are seeking party unity, she again brought up Robert’s assassination.

“I don’t because I’ve been around long enough. My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it.”

This woman has lost her mind, finally! If she doesn’t have the balls to end this charade called the Clinton campaign, then the superdelegates need to man-up and end it for her! There needs to be a united superdelegate move to Obama’s side of the fence, to once and for all put an end to this kind of disgusting political rhetoric coming from Hillary’s yap!

Hillary wants, no scratch that, needs to be President of the United States. She’s behaving like she needs to be President like a junkie needs a fix. It’s as if there isn’t anything she won’t say, do, or sell in her quest to get the fix. Her chances are pretty slim to nil of getting the nomination nod this time around, mostly because of her negativity during the campaign, plus she plain and simply doesn’t have the votes. But, a run in 2012 is starting to look like her plan.

She’s behind in votes, popular, pledged, and superdelegate numbers just aren’t backing up her claims of still being able to win this thing. Plus, her campaign is nearly $20 million in debt. It’s over for her, but yet she vows to continue on to the Democratic convention, kicking and screaming all the way there. The only possible reason for her to stay in the race, rather than drop out graciously and get on the Democratic Party’s page, is simply to hurt Obama’s chances in the general election. What other reason could there be?

If Obama loses to McCain, which Hillary is predicting, then she would be a shoe in for the nomination in 2012. And in 2012, McCain will have proven that his term was just another failed Bush term, thus again making her a shoe in for the Presidential win.

This of course is all hypothetical, but I’m trying to dumb it down to get to Hillary’s level as to why she is continuing her “me me me” diatribe.

She has now sunk to a new low in her campaign efforts to get the delegations from Florida and Michigan seated. As reported by the Politico:

Hillary Clinton compared her effort to seat Florida and Michigan delegates to epic American struggles, including those to free the slaves and win the right to vote for blacks and women.

She then compares the Florida fiasco of 2000 with her not winning the Nomination:

“In Florida, you learned the hard way what happens when your votes aren’t counted and the candidate with fewer votes is declared the winner. The lesson of 2000 here in Florida is crystal clear: if any votes aren’t count, the will of the people isn’t realized and our democracy is diminished.”

Her last quote sums it all up. After the dust has settled, even if/when the Florida and Michigan delegates are seated, she still won’t have gotten the Democratic nomination, but we’ll get to listen to her whine and moan about how it was ’stolen’ from her for the next few years!

What I find the most hypocritical is that she is almost daring the DNC to not count the Florida and Michigan votes, because if they aren’t, come November Florida and Michigan will vote for McCain.

“We know the road to a Democratic White House runs right through Florida and Michigan. If we care about winning those states in November, we need to count your votes now. If Democrats send a message that we don’t fully value your votes, we know Sen. McCain and the Republicans will be more than happy to have them.”

It seems all to obvious that Hillary will only fight for the Florida and Michigan votes, if it benefits her and only her. Where was she when the DNC disqualified those votes because they broke party rules by moving their primaries dates? She was lining up to agree that the votes won’t be counted, as per punishment by the party’s rules committee, that’s where.

She needs to realize that she is not the be-all and end-all of the Democratic party. If anything she is hampering the party’s efforts to win the White House in November by spewing selfish rhetoric like this out. Maybe she should drop out of the Democratic race now, and start her own independent party. She could call it the Hillary party, and then she could have all the votes she could get from her beloved “I am Hillary, hear me roar” campaign!

Joe Lieberman and John McCain are almost cut from the same cloth, except Joe knows more about Sunni’s and Shia, etc. etc. What they do have in common however is an appetite to bomb Iran. John sings about it, and Joe claims it “appeals ” to him.

During Bill Bennett’s radio show today, Bill and Joe were fantasizing about their pearl wearing heroine, Hillary “obliterate them all” Clinton when Bennett lets the cat out of the bag about his admiration for Hillary.

And Joe, you know, this is my style. This is a girl who puts on her pearls, goes down, throws down a shot of liquor and bombs Iran, you know. This is…lookout Mrs. Bennett, this is my kind of girl.

Lieberman then says, “it does have an appeal to it.”

Yup, just some good ol Neocon buddies, kickin’ back havin’ some shots, talkin’ bout the ladies and bombing Iran. I wonder if these two have BFF tatoos? “Peace is for pussies” must be tattooed on their ass cheeks!

You know, there is just something about Hillary lately that makes you want to have an aneurysm. Throbbing temples, clenched teeth, rapid breathing, eyes ready to jump out of their sockets kind of aneurysm! The next time I get a migraine, I’m calling it a Hillary instead.

24 hours haven’t passed yet and she is already whining and moaning about Michigan’s plan to get their delegates seated. The reason for incessant whining, is four delegates! Four fuckin’ fricken delegates!

Michigan Democrats on Wednesday voted to back a plan that would give Clinton 69 delegates — four fewer than the 73 she gained by winning the state’s Jan. 15 primary. Obama would get 59 pledged delegates even though he took his name off the ballot, forcing his supporters to vote for Uncommitted.

Considering, as we all know by now, that Michigan was stripped of it’s delegates because, again as we all know by now, they broke party rules by moving their primary dates, these delegates shouldn’t even be on the table. But yet Hillary continues to urge that these delegates be seated, one way or another in order for the ‘voter’s voices to be heard.’ That’s all well and fine to say, but there needs to be some compromises made because Obama’s name wasn’t even on the ballot.

Why can’t Hillary take what she can get and just shut up? She’s moaning about getting four fewer delegates than she won after the “not counted” primary in Michigan. She should consider herself fortunate, because how many delegates would she have won if Obama’s name had been on the ballot? Maybe 4 less. Maybe 5 or 6 less? Who knows. But the bottom line is the Michigan plan seems like a fair compromise to get their delegates seated.

If Hillary is going to act like a spoiled child over the Michigan plan, the party should make a stand. Give her the 4 fuckin’ delegates just to shut her up, then push for the uncommitted superdelegates to get off the fence and stand behind their chosen candidate. It’s time for this insanity to end! The party can’t put up with another month of Hillary whining and moaning every time she doesn’t get her way!

It’s time for the grown-ups to tell Hillary to play nice or get the hell out of the sandbox!

Brake lines, toothpaste, watching for falling grand pianos, etc, etc. Why, you may ask? Because Hillary is not done, not done yet at all!

Hillary is vowing to stay in the Democratic race, even though climbing Mount Everest might seem to be a little more achievable than her pulling off the Democratic nomination. The numbers just aren’t there for her campaign any longer. Her campaign piggy bank is full of IOU’s to her self to the tune of $6.4 million, and regardless of what ‘math’ she uses it just doesn’t add up to Clinton getting the nomination nod.

Even using logic that is a stretch from reality, it still seems unlikely that will emerge as the victor. She claims that by seating the Florida and Michigan delegates, she’s right back in the thick of it. And IF the Democratic party used the same system of delegating votes as the Republicans, then she claims she would have the nomination already sewn up. Well, she can count the delegates of Florida and Michigan all she wants, but at the present time they don’t count because the two States were stripped of their delegates for moving the dates of their votes. Yes, it’s shitty that their votes do not count, but their politicians knew of the ramifications they would face if they proceeded to move their voting dates beforehand. Rules are rules. If there is some way to seat the delegates fairly, then lets do it. But as of right now, their votes cannot, and should not be counted. As far as her claim of the Republican Party system giving her the nomination, that may be true. But the Democratic party doesn’t subscribe to their system, so why would she even bring it up as an arguing point for her campaign? Reality check time!

There are only two ways I can see Hillary pulling off the nomination. The first way is some serious kissing ass, along with back room bribery of the Superdelegates remaining to get as many defectors to jump to her side of the playpen. Although a likely plan, it would surely be suicide for the Democratic party’s unity. The second way, would be to push Obama off a cliff. But even that would not necessarily give Clinton an edge. You see, Obama has survived everything Clinton has thrown at him, and he still walks away smelling like a rose, so I doubt whether a cut brake line will slow him down any!

Let’s hope that her pleas for her supporters to send money to her campaign is the last embarrassing thing she does in this race.
