1. It's the media. They're playing the Dems for fools. Hillary can't win but |
|
they won't say that. They're too busy counting their money because the so-called race will go on to the convention. Guess what? Hillary can't catch Obama. It's fucking over. And don't give me the Supers will step in. Bull Fucking Shit!

technically the republicans still have primaries and caucuses going on as well. However they use a winner take all in their systems so that allows a winner to emerge earlier for the most part.

3. Hillary Clinton deserves every last chance, every glimmer of hope, |
|
every last opportunity to hurl the kitchen sink at Obama while the Repubs ALSO attack him, until he's rendered unelectable. That's the game plan--make his poll numbers go down so she'll win. It's sickening, our party is full of gutless weenies.

11. And it looks like she will do that kitchen sink thing. |
|
I have a feeling some big party folks may be on the phone privately.

She needs to stop trying to sabotage Obama and do what's right for the country. He has won the nomination. Accept it, Hillary.

6. But FWIW, the mainstream media is all Dems, all the time |
|
We'll see if the old truism "There's no such thing as bad publicity" holds true.

7. It Does Put McCain in the Shade |
|
and he is going to have to try to consolidate his base, which will be infinitely more difficult for the GOP than for us.

Though in fairness to McAin't, his base does tend to thrive in the shade, like mushrooms and mold.

8. Only if you are opposed to every voter in every state having a voice |
|
It is utterly ridiculous that the nominee is essentially chosen by Super Tuesday. It is not fair and disenfranchises millions. not very democratic at all. At least now a lot more people get a say.
I would prefer a one-day primary rather than a long-drawn-out process but that won't happen.
Obama people are just upset that the anointed one can't quite seal the deal.

10. It was designed for an early front-runner |
|
like... well, you know, an "inevitable" candidate...
It was expected that one person would be the front-runner after New Hampshire or maybe not until Super Tuesday, but the race was supposed to be over by Super Tuesday.
They got fooled by having 2 strong candidates.

18. 'designed'? I don't see any design |
|
I see a bunch of states, acting individually, rushing to be first.
