Bill Clinton on stump in WV says Hillary can still win Popular Vote

[RamboLiberal]

Ed Schultz just played a clip. Bill is telling voters they have to turn out for Hillary in big numbers cause if FL and MI are seated Hillary can still win the popular vote total.

:banghead:

Aaargh! I don't trust the Clintons till I hear from Hillary and Bill's mouth that Obama has won this!

[marylanddem]

1. Don't worry - Bill will be the last to admit it's over. And it IS over,

thankfully. Just a little cleaning up to do.

[RamboLiberal]

6. I know - but the way they've campaigned I don't trust the Clintons

anymore. Which is really sad for me.

14. Hmmmm...What does "IS" mean? n/t

[NJmaverick]

2. They are through, few are buying their lies anymore

[Connie_Corleone]

3. If his lips are moving, he's lying.

[livetohike]

4. His running around in NC like a whirling dervish didn't help

her much. Or maybe it did? :shrug: North Carolina might have been a bigger blow out for Obama if Bill wasn't there.

5. Keep Bubba's mic open ... especially in those hand shake lines. Good ole' Southern Strategy.

:evilgrin:

[greguganus]

9. Yeah we might here some choice words. n/t

[BattyDem]

7. Give it up, Bill

:eyes:

[UP_4012]

Bill, Hey Bill.....

Shut up.

[ORDagnabbit]

8. 1. no she cant 2. it wont matter because the primary is about delegates.

obama leads in every category even if michigan (which he wasnt even on the ballot on) and florida are counted.

I am done with the royal familys of bush and clinton.... 27 years is long enough.

10. He also said she came from behind to win Indiana. Do they think everyone is ignorant?

[mod mom]

11. remember he is speaking to their "low information" base.

[RamboLiberal]

13. I love that term "low information voters"

I sure work with a whole bunch of them in PA! And a bunch of Limpballs Blue & White Collar Ditto Heads!

[SoCalDem]

20. the Guardian UK calls them "Agro-Americans"

:rofl:

[greguganus]

12. Those two were made for each other. I hope Chelsea stays out of politics. n/t

[Cha]

15. I don't trust the pandering, lying trash, bilarys but I don't need

to hear it from their lyin' mouths.

I will believe it when I hear it from Obama..they'll know when it's official and let us know.

[housewolf]

16. You'd think he was smart enough to understand

that primaries are about winning delegates, not the popular vote. The Dem system of selecting a nominee isn't based on state-wide popular vote counts, it's based on winning delegate counts and they are not equally distributed amongst the general population.

His going on and on about this popular vote thing betrays all of us who thought that he "was the smartest president ever."

He's involved now in presenting voters with a false impression that the popular vote will win this election for Hillary. It won't.

[Alhena]

17. No sane person will count Michigan in the popular vote total.

[City Lights]

18. Whatev, Bill...the popular vote is just a consolation prize anyway. nt

[cliffordu]

19. This is embarrassing

[theboss]

21. This is going all the way to the Convention, isn't it?

We are going to have a candidate who will get no Victory Tour. No summer appearances on talk shows. No time to fund-raise.

It's going to be nasty back and forths all summer...ugly convention fight....right to the debates.

Good God.

23. There is NO such thing as a popular vote - this has been a Clinton fiction that the media has

allowed to fly. It ignores some states where the number of people who came to a caucus is not known.

Bill reminds me of when a much younger sister would come over and tell me that I lost a board game we were polaying - by declaring that the goal was different than the one written in the rules - I let her get away with it because she was three and it was cute. Clinton is not three and this is just stupid.

The lucky thing is that the superdelegates are people who know what the rules were and likely are not too impressed with the Clintons doing this or saying that if they had the Republicans rules she would already be the winner. Maybe she should run in their primary next time if she prefers.

[Stop Cornyn]

24. Yes, but have to exclude states she lost and include states where Obama wasn't on the ballot and she

has to win the remaining states by a 2 to 1 margin. Sure, if you define everything that way, it's technically possible.

[DefenseLawyer]

25. Too bad we don't select our nominee based on some national "popular vote"

Sucks to be them, I guess.

[spanone]

26. so, now bill inhales

[dbredes]

27. Hillary math works -As long as they don't count Caucus States!

And once again...I assert that if Hillary isn't going to count our votes in caucus states ...than she ought to give back our pledged delegates...

End of story!
