... the witch is dead.:lmao:

I'll now have to admit, this was our (most of my fellow conservatives) goal - to drive the political stake down Hillary's political heart.

Now, on to the general election, where, IMHO, more dirt comes out on Barack Hussein Obama, the empty suit.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080603/ap_on_el_pr/clinton

WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton will concede Tuesday night that Barack Obama has the delegates to secure the Democratic nomination, campaign officials said, effectively ending her bid to be the nation's first female president.

Obama is 40 delegates shy of clinching the nomination, but he is widely expected to make up the difference Tuesday with superdelegate support and votes in South Dakota and Montana. Once he reaches the magic number of 2,118, Clinton will acknowledge that he has secured the necessary delegates to be the nominee.

The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City.

She will pledge to continue to speak out on issues like health care. But for all intents and purposes, the two senior officials said, the campaign is over.

Most campaign staff will be let go and will be paid through June 15, said the officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to divulge her plans.

The advisers said Clinton has made a strategic decision to not formally end her campaign, giving her leverage to negotiate with Obama on various matters including a possible vice presidential nomination for her. She also wants to press him on issues he should focus on in the fall, such as health care.

Universal health care, Clinton's signature issue as first lady in the 1990s, was a point of dispute between Obama and the New York senator during their epic nomination fight.

Clinton was at home in Chappaqua, N.Y., with her husband, former President Clinton, and was placing calls to friends and supporters.

Clinton campaign says she's not conceding

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is "absolutely not" planning to concede the campaign to Barack Obama on Tuesday night, Clinton campaign chairman Terry McAuliffe told CNN on Tuesday.

"No one has the number to be the nominee of the Democratic party right now," he said.

McAuliffe, asked about an AP report that Clinton will acknowledge Tuesday night after the South Dakota and Montana primaries that Obama has the delegates to clinch the nomination for the November presidential election, replied: "They are 100 percent incorrect."

He does it because it is a suggestive middle name. It's the same name as Saddam Hussein had. He's one of those assholes that uses HUSSEIN as much as he can to make the uneducated/dumb voters of America think he is somehow connected with terrorism and radical Islam.

He doesn't admit to that however, he just says "His name IS Barrack Hussein Obama, isn't it?" with a few smug smileys afterwards.

Now you're left with two candidates... One that is basically a clone of Bush and will not give America the much needed change that it so badly needs, and one who might give America that change but might just end up being another disaster like Bush.

The choice is... another certain disaster, or a candidate that might be a disaster but MIGHT NOT...

I'd go for the one that could potentially do some good and give him a chance rather than the Bush clone.

Although I frequently disagree with you, for some reason I cant hate you like others. And your probally correct in that assesment there. I will probally vote for Mccain if Obama doesnt make some issue more clear to me. It also depends on who the VP's are. If Mccain chooses Pawlenty from MN, he will have my vote (or Norm Coleman) Two "republican" politicians who are decent people.

I think many will vote for McCain, but it makes you wonder why. I have stated before that Obama and Hillary's main support comes from the fact that one is black and one is a femenist, and this seems to be the main issue. Their threats of voting for McCain seem to come from simply spite, they would rather vote for somebody with opposite political views than aknowledge their canditate lost the primary.

And I am not an Obama supporter, I am just really questioning these "angry old ladies." This voting scheme is even WORSE than the lesser of two evils, they are actually voting FOR what would be their worse of two evils, just for the sake of spite.

WASHINGTON (AP) Jun 3, 3:36 PM EDT -- Hillary Rodham Clinton has told congressional colleagues she would be open to becoming Barack Obama's vice presidential nominee, saying she would consider it if it would help Democrats win the White House.

Clinton, a New York senator, made the comment on a conference call with other New York lawmakers Tuesday, according a participant on the call.

Clinton seems to be indicating now that she would be prepared to consider VP "if it would help the Democrats". Bullshit! She's done everything possible over the last three months to try and ruin a sure win for the Dems this year and now wants the VP job to stay quiet! Hopefully Obama does not fall for this, as I think with her as VP it would improve the odds on John Sidney McCain III to complete Bushs third term!

I think Obama/Edwards will win this November as Edwards can appeal the any white working class racists and Obama can appeal to everyone else.

Laertes.

He's already beat Hilary whether she decides to drop out or not. With pledged delagates, and the amount he will get even if he doesn't win these two states today.

This is just plain FUN to watch pan out!

Clinton's remarks came in response to a question from Democratic Rep. Nydia Velazquez, who said she believed the best way for Obama to win key voting blocs, including Hispanics, would be for him to choose Clinton as his running mate.

"I am open to it," Clinton replied, if it would help the party's prospects in November.

I was looking for the video on YouTube because I saw it this morning on the six o'clock news but Obama says, "We will be working together for the November election."

The states that Clinton won in the primaries would be one's that Obama would suffer in against McCain, like New York, Florida...which is why he has a better shot with her.

People said that if Obama won the Democratic nomination then they would switch Republican.

Be fair: Just about everyone wanted her out of the race. The only vote she still had/has was the Gay vote; i've heard a lot of gay men say that they want to vote for her simply because they want to see a woman in office, and that "if [politicians]'re all the same anyways, why not her?" However, gay people make up ~10% of the country's population. Even if every single gay man and woman was to vote for her, I still don't think it would make up for everyone else voting for Obama.

Theres no way that Obama should let her on the ticket and after her speech last night there is no way he could let her on now without looking spineless and being bullied into it!

It doesn't make it null and void, just less compelling. Nonetheless, the closeness of popular vote between Hillary and Barack is indicative of at least one important thing:

Contrary to the way he and his suppoters would argue, Barack Obama has no legitimate widespread appeal in the Democratic party. He obtained fewer than 51% of the total votes counted, hardly a show of unity. His large rallies might remind us that his supporters are passionate and show up in large numbers, but they deceive us because they overrepresent his support.

For all that they have criticized George W. Bush for, 51% of Democrats have opted for a candidate of even less political experience, even less foreign policy experience, and for a candidate who just might prove to be more divisive in the long haul.

Empty suit? Damn straight. I think Obama's a smooth talking inexperienced bullshiter who gets by on his good looks and personality. I have problems with his religious background, and don't buy any of the arguments in this forum that exonerate him from any wrongdoing. Swimming in that shit for 20 years raises big red flags. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H64yKJhB528) for me.
I also think its funny when people use his middle name, because it incinuates he's an evil terrorist out to get us. BTW, you see this guy: he's brown, everyone loves him, so we nicknamed him Barack (http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d146/Chris_Vet/NewFloorz.jpg).


I think McCain brain dead when it comes to economic issues, but the man does have more honor than most Americans (or canadians) can brag about. (he did afterall choose 5 years of torture in exchange for freeing other Americans) Here's a few reasons I don't like McCain, firstly he constantly bullshits (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEtZlR3zp4c) As far as either doing the right thing for the US? Nope Nadda never. But thats another long economic discussion.

:lol: I've said this before to you, if we were all in 1 large room, the wisecracks that get tossed around this forum would wither and die. I have no problems being friends with people who have the opposite political beliefs, it only represents a very small portion of our lives / interests. (thank the Geezuz Lord) ;)

Empty suit? Damn straight. I think Obama's a smooth talking inexperienced bullshiter who gets by on his good looks and personality. I have problems with his religious background, and don't buy any of the arguments in this forum that exonerate him from any wrongdoing. Swimming in that shit for 20 years raises big red flags. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H64yKJhB528) for me.



I still don't know how any of that means he is an empty suit. He has plans regarding the economy, military, etc. It just that most people either didn't listen to it or chose to ignroe it or not look for it in my opinion. You can go to ontheissues or his website and download blueprint for change.

But, you'd get in a lot of trouble if you said this around Obama supporters; they seem to blindly follow this man. Every website and forum I go to is Pro-Obama, saying generic things like "OBAMA '08!" without citing a reason WHY he'd make an amazing president other than "look at this speech he's given, and what a bitch Hillary is!"

It comes across as fellating, not supporting.


(If this was Digg or Youtube, i'd be at -28 diggs right now)

That was the case with Ron Paul on Digg before he was swept under. Either way, this is not the same forum as those places and that is expected in supporters of almost any candidate.

Hillary is the worst of the bunch. :boink: What did my online girlfriend say once: Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. :lol:(madameX)

Its no secret I don't like either Barack or McCain, and many guys in here feel the same. I don't see them as qualified men to Run the (still) most powerful nation on the planet. I'd love to see Trump do it and clean up the mess in Washinton, but even he's too smart to kill his popularity / future empire building. Besides, I don't blame or attack either candidates supporters, they're people like you and I with an opinion who think they're making the right choice.

BTW, interesting avatar :lol:

You can go to ontheissues or his website and download blueprint for change. Oh if I had to chose between either, it would be Obama for the simple reason he plans to make more agressive withdrawls from Iraq. The economics of that alone will save Americans Billions and Billions (perhaps Trillions in time.)

Why do pseudo-conservatives always keep the phrase "us conservatives", "I'm a conservative" or "proudly conservative" in their mouth when their views are the textbook definition of a neo-con?

It's not what you say that matters, it's your deed that betrays you. Like mentioning Obama's middle name somehow would give you more credibility when it actually makes you look childish.

... the witch is dead.:lmao:

I'll now have to admit, this was our (most of my fellow conservatives) goal - to drive the political stake down Hillary's political heart.

Now, on to the general election, where, IMHO, more dirt comes out on Barack Hussein Obama, the empty suit.

I also think its funny when people use his middle name, because it incinuates he's an evil terrorist out to get us. BTW, you see this guy: he's brown, everyone loves him, so we nicknamed him Barack (http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d146/Chris_Vet/NewFloorz.jpg).

Wasn't directed at you, but thanks for explaining your position.
I find it completely speculative and paranoid, but that's just (MY HONEST OPINION)


I think McCain brain dead when it comes to economic issues, but the man does have more honor than most Americans (or canadians) can brag about. (he did afterall choose 5 years of torture in exchange for freeing other Americans) Here's a few reasons I don't like McCain, firstly he constantly bullshits (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEtZlR3zp4c) As far as either doing the right thing for the US? Nope Nadda never. But thats another long economic discussion.
Agreed 100%. McCain is more of an empty-suit puppet than Obama is, IMHO.

Yep. Great Post! There are those of us who see right through him. And I think the reason being, is we've been burned be the likes, before. In other words, we've seen the movie before, and we've come to learn the sequals suck, with very few exceptions.

Yes, and I have over 300 websites. If I were to create a website, post my, "blueprint for change", would I expect everyone to buy it, hook, line and sinker? I don't think so. But just like those who send us SPAM -- they're sending it because SOME actually click the link and buy stuff.

Whether you agree with them or not is a totally different matter. Obama has ideas and plans, the fact that a lot of people are ignoring them is not to blaim on Obama. Since he has these ideas and plans, he is not an empty suit, this is the simple conclusion.

I'd be willing to bet those "ideas" and "plans" aren't even his own. That doesn't mean I don't know they aren't his, but what I do know is, where he went to "church" for over 20 years, along with his questionable ties to shady characters.

Just try to connect the dots.

You call him an empty suit but his plans and ideas are on his website. Therefore, you are wrong.

Untill his ideas include the ending of the 'Aids for Black people'-campaign in the US, I think we're pretty safe on that front. The ideas he actively does put forth are not clearly influenced by Rev. Wright. Furthermore, since he does put forth ideas, you can't call him an empty suit. If you're ever going to make an informed decision, btw, and not just go on a partisan-hunch and what FOX-news tells you, you might actually want to do some research on the guy.

You can't "honestly" call him an empty suit if he has put forth ideas.

And they might be lying, frauding, whatever, they're not empty suits. And unless you want to suggest that Obama is doing those things (and you'll need to get an idea of what he stands for, before you can disagree with him) you're spewing nonsense.

But it's not nonsense Henkie. He has a very reliable source. His own mind! dun dun dun

Then so be it. When I form an opinion, I believe it to be FACT

IMHO, Hillary would beat McCain in a landslide. Now, if she's actually dropping out, most of her followers will vote for McCain, or at least that's what I'm reading.

The Obama voters, IMHO, for the most part, voted on EMOTION. Emotion has a way of self-depleting.

I see a McCain/Romney landslide, HISTORIC, victory over the empty suit, come November.
your dumb then... a pro war republican is not winning this election.

Only two hours now until she gets her nationally televised concession speech. Cant wait to see if she will be gracious in defeat and admit she has lost fair and square. OR spend the whole speech talking about how great she is and why she should be the democratic candidate. Hopefully she wont give another speech like Tuesday nights "concession"!

I wonder if she'll be announcing her being the VP pick. lol
