Wow that was a MONSTERous win by Hillary yesterday huh?
So now she has an excuse to hang around a while longer and directly campaign to change the rules because she thinks she won Florida and Michigan and to ask for money.

Great campaign tactics, we have noticed that things seem to be running a little better since Mark Penn isn't the face (ack!) of the inner-circle braintrust you've got going there.

But what WE get out of this is watching a once proud and distinguished worker in the cause knead to the surface all the horrible attributes that the far right has claimed AND try to convince everyone that she is f*$#ing Yoda or something.

How condescending and elitist is it to publicly pronounce that you and only you can change this lump of clay that Obama is into a MAN. Only YOU can toughen him up to withstand that assault that is coming (and that you are prepping the battlefield for) from the rightwing. Only you have the guile and wisdom that will allow Obama to finally achieve something in his life. Only you

Yoda never had to brag. Yoda never self-promoted. But then maybe you missed that part when you got up to answer the phone during the 3 AM screening or you are still PTSD from all the sniper fire.

3. She can't get over the fact that Obama has almost 2 MILLION PEOPLE behind him
She's not the most popular girl at the dance! She can change the rules
and point to a myriad of metrics and have her surrogates out 24/7 clogging
up the airwaves talking about how GREAT she is, but at the end of the day,
Obama is leading a MOVEMENT made up of those pesky grassroots ACTIVISTS
that we now know she holds in such contempt. And try as she might to
ignore that fact, it persists.

MILLIONS OF LITTLE PEOPLE ... who will not go away this time.

7. Those two million don't count
Their either from blue states, sham caucus states, elitists, or they're crossover repukes. Haven't you been keeping up with the talking points?

6. Yeah, the democratic process is just SO TIRESOME.
Letting all those people have their say, it's just EXHAUSTING. And since Obama's already gotten all the delegates he needs to win...what's that? You say he hasn't? But that's not what everyone on DU is saying!

11. According to NYT estimates she has, at present, one more delegate
http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/results/states/PA.html

(top right of page)

Clinton - 64
Obama - 63

One measly delegate. Is that wat the fuss was all about?
