Yeh, of all the hilarious stuff in that video, that has to be the best line. 
This is absolutely hilarious (though not as funny as that video):
Did anyone else catch Hardball last night? Chris Matthews asked a Howard Wolfson exactly what was her ‘metric’ for pulling out a win. The spokesman went through the usual twisty, two-left-footed hypothetical chicken dance which included counting MI and FL, discounting caucuses, rushing the rules committee, how uneducated white Republican voters and Dem-leaning Indies will only vote for her, how she will have massive wins in WV (possible), KY (also possible) and OR (huh?) and-- the kicker-- Puerto Rico (likely).
Matthews was stunned that Wolfson would think that the delegates of a territory that cannot vote in the general should be a significant reason for the supers to back Hillary.
Wolfson’s full of crap. Keith Olbermann has a diary at Daily Kos today about him, and about one of the big indicators that the campaign is set to implode…apparently Wolfson is shopping around a book deal.
And two more supers so far today. (One a former Clinton supporter and she picked up one new. But right now I’m just focused on Obama’s magic number.)
That’s two defections from Clinton in the past week, isn’t it? I think Obama picked up a formerly declared Clinton super from Virginia a couple of days ago.
Headline: Clinton advisers talk exit strategy
From that article:
Nice!
From that article:
New for Clinton: Rep. Chris Carney ¶.
New for Obama: Rep. Peter DeFazio (OR).
Switched C–>O: Rep. Donald Payne (NJ).
Plus, according to DemConWatch, DNC member John Gage (MD) declared for Obama.
So for the morning, Obama’s +3, Clinton’s +0, and Clinton’s superdelegate lead, per DemConWatch, is down to six and a half, 269.5 to 263. (The ‘half’ is a Clinton superdelegate from Guam; their supers get 1/2 vote each.)
That would be correct - DNC member Jennifer McClellan of VA switched from Clinton to Obama on Wednesday.
Just for this work week, Obama’s +15, and Clinton’s +1, net, in supers.
4q, Hrc!
ABC’s Jake Tapper claims Obama’s taken the lead in superdelegates, 267 to 266.
The problem is, nobody else has Obama’s total that high, or Clinton’s that low. And without a verifiable list of who ABC considers to have sided with whom, I just don’t buy it. We’re close, but we’re not there yet.
That’s why I’m a big DemConWatch fan. They have a list of names, not just a count. And each name links to a news report authenticating their choice.
They led on GMA this morning that Obama was now in the lead with superdelegates. George the-head Stephanopolos and Diane I’m-a-Hillary-supporter-to-the-end Sawyer reported that Obama took the lead.
Lookin’ good for Obama, isn’t it? Good on him not to seem overconfident or act as if he has it in the bag.
Although he practically does.
A lot of those crowding around him were reportedly calling him “Mr. President.” If thats not a signal to Hillary, I don’t know what is. The fat lady is holding the last note right now.
If’n I know anything about Hillary, that fat lady has the world’s most efficient larynx and the lung capacity of a blue whale.
Good healthy skepticism there, RT. I think Hillary has a half-vote in there somewhere anyway, so Tapper can’t be right. But as of an hour ago, the AP has it at Clinton, 271.5 and Obama, 266.
Unless of course there is something that ABC wanted to be the first to report…if they are wrong then those numbers would either need to be corrected on national tv tonight on world news or they are actually right.
Didja notice how very carefully this article does not mention Hillary speaking of an exit strategy? In fact it states she is still talking about winning.
Ah well. Only a few more contests to go. . …
