Fork Hillary 3: The Final Forking

Like I said - sooooon. :slight_smile:

I think her big shindig tomorrow night is going to launch her concession. What else is she going to do? Remain defiant until the last super jumps to Obama then send a memo? Why not end it tomorrow with some dignity and a whole lot of your fellowship around you?

39.5 as of now on DemConWatch. Figure a safe 15 pledged delegates tomorrow. He needs about two dozen. There are clearly that many ready to come out if need be over the next 48 hrs. Clinton knows that. She’s made her calls and she knows that the supers aint buying what she’s selling.

I honestly think that she’ll do the right thing and concede tomorrow night before the supers have to push her out.

Hopefully she can finally smell what the Barack is cooking.

Don’t count your chickens before they hatch folks. I too have been duped into feeling sorry for Bill and Hillary only to be fuming mad at those two the next day. They aren’t going out of this in a pretty way, I’m afraid. You heard Bill’s blaming Obama for things. He’s just pissed that he’s no longer the bride in the Democratic party.

Yeah, me too. I hate what she’s done over the past few months, but at the same time…

She has literally lost her life-long dream during this primary.* I honestly can’t imagine what that truly feels like. I can get close, but the realization that this thing you’ve been dreaming about since you were a little girl (guy) is simply not going to happen must be devastating.

  • This assumes that Obama wins two terms.

On the bright side, now she can let herself go and grow a beard.
(Or let go of her “beard”?)
Al Gore seems contented enough, at any rate.

I can’t help it. This reminded me of the wonderful little O. Henry story, “The Ransom of Red Chief.” Read it and you’ll see what I mean.

I know the story, and yes, I do know what you mean. Hillary’s kidnapping could well end with negotiations about what the terrorists would have to concede in order for the US to take her back.

And then when she was released, like Julius Caesar, she’d hunt them down and obliterate them.

I think the race is finally over - until yesterday, whenever gmail told me that there was a new post here, it ran an ad for Hillary’s campaign.

Today it’s for Hillary’s roller blinds. :smiley:

Woo whoo!!! We got double digits today?

What? 4 is a digit… 5 is a digit…

d&r :smiley:

I actually feel kind of bad for Bill. He got nothing but bad press throughout the whole primary. Every time Bill was on the news it was about his latest gaffe.

Bill and Hillary fought a good fight. The attacks that have come from them have given me more confidence in Obama’s political ability. I can see now that he isn’t going hike up his skirt and run away from the Republican attack machine like Gore and Kerry. Hillary’s attacks might have actually worked if Obama wasn’t a skilled politician. If he lost because of Hillary’s antics (however dishonest) then I would be happy that he lost the nomination. I wouldn’t want another lame democrat up against McCain.

Now lets hope the Clintons will use their skills to usher in Obama into the White House.

Be patient, we’ll get our double digit delegates in a couple of days :smiley:

Not that it matters, but I must be a really unforgiving person. I don’t feel she’s a good egg. After the fake crying (at least I thought it was fake), the underhanded tactics and general shceming I don’t forgive her for anything. HRC would have to do a lot in the next four years to convince me that shes worth having in office. I just don’t forgive that easily. i don’t hate her, I just don’t think she’d be a particularly good president and that her actions have shown her true character.

Why should I forget anything she’s done? Thats opening a door for more of the same crud later on.

I don’t think she’s a good egg, either. It’s just the sort of thing you’re supposed to say when someone dies.

I think even Hillary realizes her standing will be much higher (for whatever purposes she has in mind for her future) if she concedes tonight (Tuesday) rather than be pushed out on Wednesday (embarrassing). If she does, I think I’ll have time to get over the fury that has built up against her since she went so negative and irrational back in February or so. I don’t think I’ll ever trust her again, but I think I could like her again.

Obama picks up 1 super overnight. Now needs 38.5.

Now a Michigander. 38.

Since they’re only half-sized, maybe we should call them Michigoslings?

Well, I don’t like to speak ill of the dead, but…sometimes you just have to be honest about it.

I have a cousin that grew up near me, living with her grandmother. For some reason her grandmother never liked me. She was mean to me when I was a kid, she was openly hostile to me when i was teenager and she was unpleasant to me when I became an adult. When i went to Basic training she told everyone in my neighborhood that the “Army” was a cover story and I really had been sent to jail. (For what? Who knows…she was mean and unpleasant). When she died I didn’t go to the funeral and other family members…some of whom she was equally mean to…were all “But you gotta come home for the funeral…she always cared about family…blah blah blah.”

nahhh…I had to call them on that Bullshit. I told them “sorry, she was a mean old bitch, she didn’t like me, i didn’t like her and thats it. I would never wish death on her, but I’m not going to pretend I’m all broken up about it either.”.

Wow…i didn’t even mean to go way off topic like that…sorry. I guess i have unresolved issues I should work on.
