    about time

    but you know what I actually feel a little sad for Hillary. The Democratic party threw her under the bus as soon as they saw Obama take any steam in this election. She was shit on big time.

    I commend her for being a fighter, but she should have dropped out long ago.


    McCain is just old, his speech last night was just so lame and read. I felt like I was hearing an oral report. Barry will shred his ass in the debates.

    gonna be an interesting next 6 months

    That's what she said. :rolleyes:

    Perhaps this is a move to earn a VP slot.

  • I was thinkin about this the other day how the Democrats fucked themselves by not having those superdelegates vote earlier. The reason I say this is because so many people, i.e the media, have been blaming Hillary for screwing the Dems in November. Jimmy Carter the other day was saying how Hillary should drop out of the race and he had not even cast his vote yet, wtf? They should give these bitches a deadline and force them to vote by April so this crap doesnt drag on.

    Well anyway, didnt we kind of know that Obama was the candidate back in February?

    Well Im at least glad that its not another Bush-Clinton-Bush era

    To be fair to Senator Clinton, the primary season started about 11 months before the Iowa caucuses, and for that entire period, she was whipping Barry's ass in the polls by anywhere between 15-25 points, depending on what poll you read (national vs. individual states, Gallup, Zogby, Rasmussen, etc.). Barry didn't start to win until people actually started voting, which is kind of when it counts the most.

    But are we really here to be fair? Yeah she was beating him in the polls until Oprah endorsed him! Think about it!

    That was probably a wash in the end. I'm not sure how much that really helped other than the media coverage, and that wasn't a story for more than a week at the most.

    if the superdels had a deadline before the primaries were over that would be a little unfair. many of the supers vote how their state votes, so they should be able to wait until the primaries are done.

    You're talking like a mindless sheep who allows herself to be an unwitting cog in the corporate machine who runs this country. If you really cared about all the important stuffs, you'd copy and paste a bunch of stuff from Z-Mag here 1,328 times a week. That's how you make a difference.

    did we really need another 'hillary's done!!' thread to state what was obvious to anyone, even ppl under a rock, over a month ago?

    I'm not sure if we NEED it, but I didn't start it, either. You're not trying to drown out my right to free expression in a democratic society, are you?

    RALPH WOULD DISAPPROVE.

    Fair enough. Another 'Hillary's done' post is definitely redundant, but if we scrubbed all the redundant threads on this board, what would it look like?

    in that case, you must get a lot of mainstream media attention; therefore you must also be a puppet. do you have a bandwagon yet? i'd kinda like to, uh, hop on.

    Probably from... 20% of the voters in the Kentucky Democratic primary and various individuals interviewed in primary states.

    Of course, those people are obviously outliers dug up by the corporate mainstream media who want to paint a certain % of certain states as racists.

    LOL. Catty tonight, aren't we, you two? ;)

    But I understand. It's much easier to attack the messager or medium such as youtube when you don't have a leg to stand on when debating the actual message. It's tried and true.

    So make your snide remarks about zmag and youtube all you want. But just to let you know, it comes off as pretty petty and unsubstantial. Care to join us in the Iran saber rattling thread or the discussion we were having last week on the patriot act? How about the war funding threads? Pandering to special interest has sparked plenty of good discusisons here, as well. But you guys always seem to be MIA. It's a shame really.
