Edited on Wed Jun-04-08 07:07 PM by roguevalley
ON COUNTDOWN: apparently, her supporters were severely embarrassed at her conduct last night and they put the clamps on her about it. they thought she was 'ungracious' and acted very, very badly, putting them into a very bad place personally. eight hardcore senators called her. Her aides and such, all hard line themselves, the ones from the campaign, asked them to tell her to get out. Strategists who were with her from day one did this. Had to get her butt out of there, she had put them in such a bad place.

INTERVENTION!

33. We definitely earned our stripes...
Is it me, or do you feel like McCain will be a cakewalk?

I'm so relaxed and ready for this GE campaign season.

I feel sorry for McCain. He doesn't have a prayer.

We both have battle wounds and psychological scars--but the nightmare is over!

41. yes TwoSparks I think we win this thing big in November
what sent me into battle was the obviousness (is that a word?) of the propagandists who would check in here at a certain time each day with talking points and then call us all names and insult our intelligence like we couldn't see right through what they were doing. I took great exception at those tactics. Look, I'm no friggin genius but I HATE when people call me stupid...I'm street smart...it goes a long ways in this world.

57. I agree...it's more than obvious...
...that there was a contingent of paid Hillary shills here.

There are many good and decent Hillary supporters. Salt-of-the-Earth people.

But those paid shills were something else.

Notice they're gone?

The money dried up.

48. He doesn't need a prayer. He has the MSM and the electronic voting machines on his side,
not to mention voter caging, voter intimidation, fraudulent felon rolls, and all sorts of other voter suppression techniques that the Rethugs are so good at.

We can't get complacent. Kerry won in 2004 and Gore won in 2008, and yet here we are, after almost 8 years of Bush in the WH.

I was making sport of Hillary's famous line she gave "60 Minutes" when
asked if Obama was a Muslim.

Hillary replied, "He's not a Muslim...as far as I know."

I wasn't laughing when she said it, but I can chuckle now.

"Sardonical"...I like that!

but probably will continue due to skepticism. The media played this same message all day yesterday and Hillary fooled everybody. :rofl:

we all remember the end of the debate, where she said she was honored sharing the stage with Obama...next day had the lie about Nafta and the "SHAME ON YOU! moment.

Don't hold your breath...we will have democrats dropping like flies waiting for her highness' concession speech.

in other words, I will believe it when I see it.

I'm not going to apologize. After last night, what little empathy I had left for Hillary is gone.

She took a night that should have been one of the proudest moments in our history and made it all about her pathological delusions.

I will NEVER forgive her for what she did.

65. We told you so, repeatedly
Too many damn neophytes on this site know NOTHING about American presidential history or politics. The reasonable 1% on here last night said that she was using last night as a thank you - concession speeches are not instantaneous when a campaign comes to a complete end. After a primary or a single election, yes.

But not after the closest primary battle in American presidential history.

The level of your happiness is inversely proportional to your knowledge of how these things work down here.
