25. And when he has the 2024 he needs...
some from her camp will say that it was won unfairly because of FL and MI. I am sincerely hoping she isn't one of them.

17. And you base that on what exactly?
Your Queen screaming "HE CAN'T WIN, BILL! HE CAN'T WIN"?

Or do you base that on your Queen's 60% untrustworthy rating? Her ~50% of respondents who say that under no circumstances would they vote for Her Royal Clintonness.

Come, Hillarite, inquiring minds want to know just why "...he will lose the General."

10. Math is even more stubborn than Hillary
Indiana and North Carolina Democrats, your help is needed to avert an ugly controversy awaiting us in Puerto Rico. In the U.S. territory, citizens do not vote in presidential general elections, but they are given a voice in the Democratic primary.

Puerto Rico's Democratic party decided, on March 8 of this year, to hold a primary rather than a caucus to allocate it's 55 delegates. This decision was made after it became clear that in a close contest, the total popular vote -- no matter how skewed a figure, due to the mix of primary and caucus states -- would become an important number in discussions about the nomination. States that had already had their caucuses, in full accordance with the rules established before the primary season began, did not have the re-do option.

Colorado and Puerto Rico have been allocated the same number of pledged delegates, 55. With Puerto Rico holding a primary with an expected turnout of at least a million voters, its popular vote will likely equal the total caucus votes of Colorado PLUS the primary votes of South Carolina, New Hampshire, Delaware, and Utah, combined. Puerto Rico will thus have a popular vote equivalent vote strength of 160 pledged delegates, rather than their allocated 55.

If the perception is widespread that Obama won the delegate count but lost the popular vote, it will weaken our Democratic nominee and cause feelings of resentment among Clinton supporters. Our best hope of winning in the fall is with a strong nominee who was fairly chosen because he won the most pledged delegates and the most popular votes. The large popular vote expected for Clinton in Puerto Rico may make Obama fall short in the popular vote.

If you've concluded, as I have, that our likely nominee, Senator Barack Obama, is worthy of your vote in the fall, I urge you to consider voting for him May 6. I think it is a wise move for everyone who hopes for a Democratic victory in the fall.

Even if Obama is not your first choice now, your vote in his column of the popular vote would be a gesture of hope for a Democratic victory in November. Doing so will help unite the Democratic Party and give us our best chance for a win in the general election.

As a California voter in June of 1992, I cast my vote not for Jerry Brown, my governor and favorite candidate, but instead for an inexperienced, charismatic governor of a small state, Bill Clinton. It was clear that he would be the nominee, and I wanted to add my little boost to strengthen him going into the convention and the fall election.

Thank you for your consideration.

35. Hey, "Lie Like A..."
Lay off SoCalDem,

She's got a hell of a lot more class, humor and Brains compared to your Heroine, a proven Liar, who should be getting all the block ladies drunk at a Tupperware party instead of annoying decent people hungry for integrity, of Which Clinton has None..

SoCalDem can take care of herself, but she's also my Old School DU Homie..

When the reality finally dictates that LoserGirl twirls back into the arms of her pimping husband then you'll either come crawling back here, or you can join McSleepy's campaign, since there's no dif between him and the Old Lady...

Lay off.

Yes, the side that is losing has been repeating the same talking points since January, hoping to get some traction. Occasionally, they'll get bored, and switch to a different one, and pile on that for a while.

49. False analogy. She had a shot, just ran a weak early campaign.
She wasn't tilting at windmills, and the suggestion is a bit disconcerting.
