A Ton Of Bricks Are Going To Hit The Clinton Campaign Tomorrow


50 superdelegates are going to jump on the Obama bandwagon.

$50 million will be reported by the Obama camp in February.

Those 50 superdelegates are going to be double the delegate total that Clinton picked up tonight.

It'll be like he won Rhode Island and Vermont 100-0 and won Ohio by 10 points.

Enjoy your little confetti party tonight Hillary, tomorrow is going to be a rude awakening.

14. I saw a video earlier where Tom Brokow said the Obama camp
told him that they were going to announce 50 super delegates moved to Obama Wednesday.

Dont have a link.

4. After all is said an done tonight...
Hillary still isn't cutting into the delegate lead that Obama has established.

And there just aren't that many delegates left.

that's not for real, she is just asking them to not announce
I don't think they will.

FWIW, the Obama campaign said that they don't have a big bloc of delegates that will announce at once. It is smarter to roll them out slower over time - keep his support in the news cycle.

7. I find it funny that Obama is now relying on the same superdelegates that they criticized before.

16. Neither candidate can get the nomination without the supers.
The question is do the supers honor the pledged delegate count or not?

23. I find it funny that Hillary & her supporters claim media bias when they've been padding her numbers
from the very start with super delegates

12. Sheesh....
...take a pill willya and calm down. So the deficits in Senator Obama's campaign are being exposed. Big deal.

Toughen up, buttercups, if you think this is bad wait until the GE when the full force of the Republican slime machine rears its ugly head.

24. Meanwhile, whatever delegates Hillary gains tonight will be neutralized...
by Mississippi and Wyoming in a few days. Which means Hillary will have done nothing to reduce Obama's elected delegate lead.

25. They were speaking of this earlier on MSNBC
It was said that the 50 or so SD's would probably be 'rolled out' over the next several weeks, not all at once.

It looks like, barring a sudden moment of clarity by Clinton regarding grade school math, we are stuck with the worst reality show on tv for another few weeks.

Edited on Tue Mar-04-08 11:21 PM by cboy4
your people had all but written off tonight in such an arrogant, nasty fashion.

"Oh, don't worry Hillbots, it will all be over in 3 days..."

"Start supporting Obama now or you will be banned from DU..."

"Start posting negative shit, even if it's not true...."

You deserve to have a taste of your own medicine....even if it's for one night.

on edit...typo

30. I do hope the super rumor is true.
I'd like to think Axelrod's crew is smart enough not to leak something like that unless they REALLY had a list.

32. I hope Obama is double-plus gracious tonight
And just shows how much more he's ready to take the high road and make her look like an idiot for playing dirty.

Then let the facts hit her hard.

David

P.S. OMG, she's talking about the phone. Gawd, I'm ready to vote Nader again in November

33. Clinton is a sell you out candidate, remember Nafta, jobs lost.

I will never forget how my home town was destoried by this one deal making on our govt.
This is one dem who will not vote if she is the one put up, it is against all I believe in.
I want the war to end period, she voted for it, he did not. I want nafta stopped period.
I want Americans to come first in their own home, their own nation period. It is a time
for change and improvement over the old way. If we vote anything else this year then we
did deserve to have Bush in the White House.
