We might be going all the way to the convention without a sure winner. Sure hope so, it will destroy the Democraps. They are already destroyed except they don't know it yet.
The Media is in the tank for Ears Obama
If you're following the news you can readily see they have already selected the nominee. You have to wonder why they dumped the Clintons. Not really, they never did like them, but at the time, they were the only act in town. They now have a new act.
Obama qualifies position on talking to enemies; By Caren Bohan; Reuters/Yahoonews.com; May 27,2008
They've got to run a little cover for Mr. Inexperienced. This guy is an educated (liberally educated) idiot who says nothing very eloquently.
U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama is distancing himself from expectations he would meet Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and taking a more cautious stand on talking to other U.S. adversaries.
For one who was so very confident in the debate by talking to the enemy, he certainly has turned his tail inwards.
With criticism from Republicans turning harsher as Obama moves closer to winning the Democratic nomination battle against rival Hillary Clinton, the Illinois senator has shifted -- but not abandoned -- his position.
Rule 1 in negotiations, don't give away anything you don't need to.
Sen. John McCain, the Republicans' presumptive nominee for the November election, has expressed outrage that Obama would talk to Ahmadinejad, whose country does not recognize Israel and who has branded the Jewish state a "stinking corpse."
Nothing like giving a no-name-nothing guy stature by sitting at the table with them on their terms to set up a tough negotiating posture.
In a CNN presidential candidates debate in July 2007, Obama was asked if he would be willing "without precondition" to meet with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea during the first year of his administration.
"I would," Obama said. "And the reason is this, that the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them -- which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration -- is ridiculous."
This guy has a great grasp on foreign policy. He's been studying the Jimmie Carter years.
Obama said on Monday he would not guarantee a meeting with Ahmadinejad, since Iran is holding a presidential election in 2009.
"There's no reason why we would necessarily meet with Ahmadinejad before we know that he was actually in power. He's not the most powerful person in Iran," Obama told reporters.
I think Barack Hussein Obama has figured something else out. He's not yet elected either. He still hasn't nailed down the nomination. But let's not worry about the minor points.
Throw her a bone while you're at it
I love this next story. Dumbo and his enablers must have worked overtime on this one.
Clinton Will Have Abundant Career Choices, All With Obstacles; Kristin Jensen; May 31,2008; Bloomberg
They are trying to tell Ms BroomRider the opera is over, however Ms Hamhocks there is still singing.
Hillary Clinton will emerge from the Democratic presidential nomination fight against Barack Obama with no shortage of attractive career choices. All have considerable obstacles.
Yeah, right. Everything open to her except the prize. You really think this will pacify the Broom Lady?
The New York senator has come closer than any woman in history to occupying the Oval Office. That's vaulted her onto the list of possible running mates for Obama; if that doesn't happen, she could run for governor of New York or Senate majority leader, or try to become a legislative power in the mold of Senator Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts.
Like I said, toss her a bone, she might take it.
Obama, 46, an Illinois senator, has said Clinton would be ``on anybody's short list.'' Even so, his campaign hasn't expressed much enthusiasm over the prospect, and prominent Obama supporters including Kennedy, 76, say a coming-together is unlikely because of the campaign's sometimes sharp tone.
If the truth be known, I think she's on his list, and it ain't short, but does begin with "S-H ".
Is it over? The mass-media wants you to think so.
Over the weekend, that's about all you read about -- the demise of the Clinton campaign.
Bill Clinton hints at end to wife's campaign; Jun 2, 2008; AFP/YahooNews.com
What is this? She just won Puerto Rico in a 2 to 1 landslide.
Former president Bill Clinton dropped a hint Monday that the end might be nigh for his wife Hillary's dogged campaign for the Democratic White House nomination, according to reports.
I want you to see the hint here and the way they are covering this.
"I want to say also that this may be the last day I'm ever involved in a campaign of this kind," the former president told Clinton supporters in South Dakota, ABC and NBC reported on their news websites.
Point 1, Billie-bob says this might be his last campaign of this magnitude.
Other reports suggested that in the face of her rival Barack Obama's overwhelming lead, the New York senator is taking stock of whether to fight on beyond Tuesday's final primaries.
Point 2, overwhelming lead (????).
The former first lady's campaign announced that she would hold an election night "celebration" in her home state of New York, not in the final voting states of Montana or South Dakota.
Point 3, going back to New York (???).
The move is a sign that the campaign is beginning to shed -- at least -- some of its staff," the report said.
Point 4, shedding staff (???).
According to New York newspaper Newsday, Clinton is to huddle with advisers and her husband at her home in Chappaqua to monitor the final results and decide whether and how to end her campaign.
Point 5, Billie-bob Clinton going to her side. (That will be ruinous I know).
So what is the problem Eye? Very simple mass-media...
"We do not believe that by midnight tomorrow that either candidate will have the new magic number," he told MSNBC.
It's that simple, IT'S NOT OVER. Obama hasn't won it. The points they offer for concession are weak. Billie-bob's last chance -- only iff she loses this nomination.
Overwhelming lead -- less than 150 delegates.
Going back to NY and shedding staff -- stop and think about this. The last primaries are Tuesday, don't you think that because the primaries have ended they would naturally go back home and shed some staff?
Billie-bob to go home with her. No evidence here either. The man hasn't been home with WitchHazel in just about 8 years. Think it might be just about time to go back.
What does all this mean? It means that the media has already declared a winner. If you can't see that the media is in the tank for Odumbo then you need to rethink why Billie-bob has returned to Hillary's side. This thing ain't over. Let's see what happens Tuesday.
By the way, I myself can't understand Billie-bob returning home. You wanna go home to listen to her? I'd rather sign up for that new Olympic sport of "javelin catching". It would be a helluva lot safer.
