Roll call for Hillary: Her delegates say yes, Obama delegates divided

What is this verbal diarrhea? It's a formality, and a recognition of Clinton's hard work and historic place. Your pairing of "democratic process" and "superdelegates" is pretty ironic.

Oh, by the way, you know that Clinton has pledged her superdelegate vote for Obama, right?

I had to laugh when I read about an alternate delegate saying it would be embarrassing for Clinton to have a roll call vote. Wasn't it Donna Brazile who said she didn't think a roll call vote would be a good idea because it would embarrass Obama? That's the more likely scenario, because the vote will show that Clinton clearly still has way more support than the Obama camp would like to admit.

“To not do so places the fall election in danger of going to McCain,” Bright said. “While I’m not one of them, Clinton has millions of supporters around the country who need to have closure on a long and hard-fought campaign. If they are disrespected they are likely to just stay home on Election Day, and that will throw the election to McCain.”
====================

I'm glad that Obama's people, and the media, are noticing that they are in serious trouble. This week's Pew poll says:
http://pewresearch.org/pubs/924/presidential-race-draws-even
“The Obama campaign has made no significant headway among former Clinton backers over the past two months. The voting preferences of Clinton’s supporters are virtually identical to earlier polls in June and July.”

Pew, NOT COUNTING STAYHOMES, finds
“Among the 28% who say they will not support Obama on November 4th, 18% say they will support McCain , 7% don’t yet know who they will support and 3% plan to back another candidate.”

Quin also found no improvement for BO among Hil’s in recent months.

Opinion Research, which DID COUNT STAYHOMES, found 9 million total anti-Obamas in July, UP
from 7 million in June (4 million stayhome, 3 million McCain).

In June, Opinion Research’s breakdown was 3 million voting for McCain and 4 million staying home.

PUtting HIllary on as VP doesn't help either. It repels as many as it attracts, according to WP/ABC's July poll.

I hope that Obama does some math and some soul-searching, and decides that he'd rather be Hillary's VP than be the McGovern of 2008.

Let me put this in English and slow so you can u-n-d-e-r-s-t-a-n-d. Hillary didn't say she was voting for Obama. Oh that's right if you believe all messiah lies then you believe the MSM that didn't tell us about the Edwards affair. It had to be broken by a supermarket tabloid, The Enquirer.

PUMA ROCKS!!!!!

This entire primary season has been rigged to give the weaker candidate every single bit of leeway imaginable. Not only is Obama the weaker candidate: far less experienced, far less wise, and one who got less votes than Hillary, and one who never even won the all important big blue dem states and purple swing states, but he also had the media and the DNC and dem party big tops sweating everyday to protect and promote him, while never vetting him, all while attacking the Clinton's and Hillary's supporters. Our democracy has become one big JOKE, and it is NOT FUNNY. Stealing delegates and the under-handed dealings at the caucuses is revolting! Obama was only in the U.S. Senate for ONE year before he announced his candidacy, and then he campaigned the rest of the time in the Senate!! What the heck has he done, besides voting "present" 130 times, and NOT SHOWING UP? The man was a part time state senator before now and that's when he was buddying up with Wright, Ayers, Rezko, Dorn, Farrakhan, Kilpatrick, Meeks, Pfleger and the Daley Machine, ACORN, and with a million other crazies!

I cannot believe he duped soooo many gullible Americans, what fools, to vote for a man who has changed his position on nearly every democratic stance, all while pathologically lying ON VIDEO TAPE. It's truly horrifying.

We need to fight for the true democrat, the one who can actually lead us with wisdom and experience, one who has actually fought for democracy. I CARE about our country, and I WILL FIGHT for the USA!

Hillary Clinton and her most rabid supporters are not seeking closure. There was plenty of time for that in the late spring and early summer. Instead they are trying to figure out whether they can steal the nomination from Obama. You cannot trust the Clintons. If they can't steal the nomination, then they will hold the party and Obama hostage for the vice-presidency. No one should think that Hillary and many of her supporters will be satisfied with anything short of surrender by Obama on these points. There is no way to placate them, and no way that Hillary will make a concerted effort to help Obama become elected. If her dying vision of 2008 grandeur fades completely, the vision for 2012 immediately comes into her focus. That is not an attack, that is just the way she is. The 2012 vision depends on McCain being elected.

She and her supporters will never be fully satisfied. They will always have a basis to be aggreived and to withold their full support. Their anger, and self righteousness is more important than whether Roe v. Wade is overturned, the continuation of the Iraq war and the starting of other wars, national bankruptcy, and the trampling of civil liberties in the name of security.

While McCain was impressive in his delivery last night, the content of what he said was truly frightening. The democrats have an uphill battle under the best of scenarios. It sure would be nice if they behaved as though they recognized that.
