I’m pretty sure it was reported that only over the weekend did she decide to speak in New York instead of one of the states where the voting was happening or another significant site.
It’s not that they were in denial, it’s because they were a flippin’ basement and didn’t have access to what was happening in reality.
Why does she need to drop out now just because he’s clinched the nomination? This article has a pretty good parallel that would argue for her to stay in the race.
Hmm are you serious?
I think she has just as good of an argument to stay in the race as the Detriot Pistons do for asking for a game 7 against Boston.
Fair enough but the New York metropolitan area has many, many better, non-basement choices, even with short notice – a affluent area’s (large) high school auditorium, for instance.
I don’t really care, I just thought it was implausible, given what’s being speculated about.
Except there ARE no more games! The series is over…there are no more games to play. No more voting to be done…the voting’s over.
You appear to have found a flaw in both the Piston’s argument as well as Hillary’s. Congratulations. I guess I was distracted by the convincing argument that we should just count total points (excluding free throws and layups) instead of games won. I guess that settles it, Celtics / Lakers it is. Logic and common sense prevail once more.
Sure there is, I can go to DENVER and where the supers can still change their mind…there’s STILL A CHANCE! Why can’t you see that? I’m the best, strongest candidate. I have 18 million votes and only lost by 100 delegates…who can still change their mind at the convention, you know.
That was my take on it as well. I don’t see a conspiracy to keep the blackberries blank, it’s just that there was a last minute change of plans.
And I prefer my Koolaid Obama flavored.
My take on Clinton wanting the VP slot: so she can say to herself after the election, “He never would have won without me!”
:rolleyes:
I do think I’ll follow Lib’s suggestion several pages back and give her a hand. Of course, my thumb will be touching my nose as I do so. . . .
And at long last, it is time to say:
You’re done, baby.
Now, please leave.
Jesus,
I’m so sick of Pat Buchanan on MSNBC. They allow him to comment on Democratic party politics and it’s nothing but FUD and concern trolling.
Nice… tweety just got him! He told him he was reading McCain talking points and after a denial by Buchanan he said, “It’s instinctive, Pat”
The voting to select the nominee won’t actually happen until Denver. So the supers could still change their minds.
Just like the refs could change their minds and decide the Pistons have a better chance to beat the Lakers than the Celtics do, and award them 50 extra retroactive free throws.
Taking this approach to the nomination process is outside-the-box, ballsy and a strategic approach never before seen in the annals of political and election history.
And that’s not a good thing.
Getting HRC to just go away is like trying to flip a booger off of your finger.
Fun?
She’s dropping out Friday! Better late than never.
Says who? If it ain’t Jesus Christ — or at the very least the angel Gabriel — then I’ll believe it when I see it.

I’m with you. I’ll believe it when I see it too. There were reports that her speech last night was going to be a concession speech before it happened. We all know how that went.
