Sen. Obama played by the rules and has won the majority of elected
delegates, as well as the popular vote. He won the majority of contests,
and, now, most super-delegates have ratified the will of the people, as it
has been expressed by all three measures. As Thomas Jefferson, the founder
of the party, once said, a majority of one vote is as sacred as that of the
unanimous. So, Sen. Clinton's historic campaign should now be remembered as
having paved the way for future female candidates.
If the UNELECTED super-delegates were to overturn the will of the people,
as it has been expressed by the number of ELECTED delegates, the Democratic
Party will be destroyed because more than half of it would change
registrations and boycott anyone with a "D" next to his or her name. Get
real. The process is over, and the nomination belongs to Senator Obama
because, after Pennsylvania, he has now earned an insurmountable majority
of elected delegates. It's time to prepare for November.
Great explanation by Donna Brazile. My question would be, what about states
like Texas, where Obama won the caucus and Clinton won the primary? Since
Obama pulled more delegates, does he control the 3 Texas Credential
Committee delegates? How about Nevada, where Clinton "won" the caucus, but
Obama pulled more delegates? There are still so many procedural questions
left out there, and that's why it would be a really bad thing to have this
turn into an ugly fight on the convention floor.
Donna Brazile was Al Gore's campaign manager when he lost to George
Bush--the worst President ever. She ran a nobel laureate against a
chimpanzee and lost. The fact is she totally screwed this situation up. She
is the reason anti-Clinton Democrats always lose the White House. She says
the superdelegates shouldn't over-rule the will of the people. But she
over-rules the will of the voters of Florida and Michigan. So if you want
to lose to McCain in 2008, follow Donna Brazile's advice.
Obama is beating Hillary for a reason. She's a tremendously flawed
candidate and he's run a solid campaign where she's run a wasteful one. He
has shown remarkable leadership over his candidacy, while Hillary has
consitantly shown herself to be a poor judge of character and strategy. Now
she's playing spoiler for McCain, and you Clinton supporters are willing to
watch her throw an election. For what? Pride? Anger? Fear? Obama has won,
and he will be a good President. Join us and help.
Hilary is less electable because she lied about her trip to Bosnia on 3
distinct occasions, and said she "misspoke". That was undeniable evidence
in the flesh. The Wright madness- not a hindrance on Obama's campaign that
way it was two weeks ago in the light of her craziness. Oh yeah, MI and FL,
agreed they wouldn't be counted, and Hilary said those states didn't
matter. Now that she's behind, now Barack is the problem with being
electable. Obama is more stable now than ever.
The elections were illegitimate for four main reasons: 1. Citizens were
told the elections would not count so many decided to stay home or to vote
in the G.O.P. primaries. 2. Candidates agreed to not campaign in these
states, so Clinton's name recognition gave her an undue advantage. 3. Obama
and most other candidates removed their names from the ballots to respect
the D.N.C. position. 4. All the candidates acknowledged and honored the
rules until one of them started losing.
I always knew that a lot of people dont like Hillary but I figured I should
pay close attention to her during this campaign and form an opinion for
myself. Her entire behaviour is bothersome to me, Ive rarely found myself
approving of the way shes handled almost any situation, and honestly her
political tactics and way of thinking often reminds me of the current
administration. From what I can tell, she is the definition of the Sleazy
politician.
an equal amount of hillary and obama supporters didn't come out to vote.
obama voluntarily took his name off the ballot. his fault. obama and two
others, the only other notable candidate was edwards. honoring the rules of
disenfranchising voters is not one we should believe in, neither one
thought it would come to the states, they had to be counted once they
effected the nomination. this is America, we're suppose to count votes u
nazi douche
My personal "favorite" HILLARY CLINTON LIE: Is the one she tells about
Chelsea jogging around the Twin Towers at the time of the "9/11 attack";
this Hillary says, made the attack "really personal". Turns out Chelsea
said she watched the 9/11 attack unfold while in bed at home!!! Perhaps
Americans, Hillary "misspoke" on this incident as well!!!! aHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Next SUCKERS on Hillary's List: Pennsylvannia
The prospects of the entire business being a fix is well over 50%. This is
why people get into politic; to beat the crap out of the even odds. I am
sure over 90% of these twerpi would like to figure out a way to cheat their
way to wealth. Their "work" is to bugger the odds no matter what the cost
to the truth or well being of their constituants. They got the wheelin' and
dealin' thing happening.
What the hell is with this electability bull shit. If they get elected that
would determine their electability. Saying they are unelectable before an
election is removing the democratic process. The only way an unelectable
person could win is through the un-proportional weight of the
super-delegates, thus they create the problem you speak of them trying to
solve.
He had nothing to do with why they haven't revoted. There were real
problems with all the plans to revote, and neither state's legislation
could work out a solution that was fair. Just because Clinton said
something doesn't make it so. In fact, if past record is any indicator,
when a Clinton says something, take a second and third look at what they
are saying.
Incidentally, every hypothetical state-by-state match-up shows Senator
Obama outperforming Senator Clinton against Senator McCain, so Obama wins
the electability argument, too. The people have spoken. They have their
nominee. It's time to come together now and prevent a third Bush term from
destroying the country even further.
Lol, typing the words "first comment" is reall no comment at all. Why dont
we pretend neither of us has posted yet so you can take another crack at it
by posting something that at least remotely has anything to do with the
video. Ok? Ill check back to read your real comment here in a bit.
Those states chose to break the rules, even after the DNC told them what
would happen. Why should we reward them with a new vote? Whats the point of
having rules if we don't stick to the punishment? and what kind of future
flood gate would that open? They screwed themselvs.
So Bush is Donna Brazile's fault now? Not the fault of "hanging chads" or
the Supreme Court or scores of gullible voters that believed the lie that
he said he invented the internet? Or Clinton fatigue? I'm glad you're here
to enlighten us, honestly.
