Hillary's shooting herself in the foot with these Texas threats. |
|
She's not going to win shit in court. A caucus is perfectly legal and this is the party's jurisdiction, not the law. Been ruled many times. So all she's doing is discouraging her supporters from showing up to the caucus, and pissing Texans off.
That and her latest ridiculous ad of desperation and I am really looking forward to finally seeing her campaign shut down for good.

and it'll be 15 in a row for Obama-how unfair is she being treated? If ANYBODY else would have lost 11 in a row they would not even be mentioned by the MSM-but since it's "the whole world hates me Clinton" she can whine about it and STILL get just as much airtime as the frontrunner

11. Actually, only one news day. People tune out on weekends, news channels pare down |
|
staff and "live" programming. People watch movies, shop, spend time with their kids.. yanno, have normal lives. Some people in RI will go see Obama on Sat; but in reality, Hillary only has Monday to slime him further. And by then, most people have made up their mind. They're not sitting around waiting for yet another desperate smear by HRC to convince them Obama is the devil.
We'll see... I think she's done.

4. From Hillary's point of view, if she can't win, no one else can. |
|
This is the same woman that joined the GOP in sliming Kerry on a joke he told a college audience.

6. You have to admit that the Texas Dem Party |
|
is pretty fucked up and from what i read earlier today, both camps are involved about the way they do both a caucus and votes there. Seems there are less delegates in the Latino area's.
I believe that's the beef.

8. It's based on votes in midterm elections |
|
Latino turnout is low. One may not like it, but it's perfectly legal, the GOP system is standing which gives 3 delegates per district regardless of how Republican/Democratic they are. Since that's not being challenged there's not a chance of the Democratic system being overturned.

7. I wish she could leave the race without having to attempt to delegitimize the nomination process. |

15. Of course, Clinton has made no threat |
|
Somebody else says she did, but her campaign denies it. But why let that get in the way of a good hate hard-on?
