So if you "wheez" across the finish line but are the first one to do so....

[trumad]

wouldn't you be considered a winner?

[tekisui]

1. The wheezer lapped the loser.

How one crosses the finish line matters little. It is when, and the order.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

9. Lapped? ROFLMAO!!!!! By The Skin Of His Teeth. Lapped... That's Fuckin Funny!

Holy cow are some of you delusional here!

:rofl:

[tekisui]

10. We'll see what the final count is.

He knows how many superdelegates he has coming his way, HIllary does, too.

She is 170+ delegates behind him and 241 from the nomination.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

11. 170 Out Of How Many Genius? You Call That Lapping?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Fool.

[tekisui]

12. Lapped as in an impossibility to catch up. As in, IMPOSSIBILITY.

The delusional ones are those who believe Hillary still has a shot.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

13. Sooooooooo Not Lapped. Saying She Was Lapped Is Just Plain DUMB.

By the skin of his teeth is far more accurate.

And no, it's not impossible. You might want to look up the meaning of that term sometime.

Furthermore, she does still have a shot. It's a longshot and not one that is likely to occur at all, but a shot nonetheless. Try reality sometime. It won't hurt as much as you think.

[tekisui]

14. Eh, you're right.

Except, I'm no fool. SHe has keep herself from being mathematically, even through the last contests. I have been continually impress with the level of support she can still pull from some of these contests.

I said lapped and dug in, too much coffee this morning.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

15. Fair Enough.

:toast:

[trumad]

16. My contention is that the skin of his teeth still makes him a winner.

Scoreboard baby. ;-)

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

17. Without A Doubt.

[hokies4ever]

20. The race isn't close

It's just pure delusion to suggest that this race is neck and neck.

[Cheap_Trick]

21. "skin of his teeth" must be the new talking point

He's still going to be the winner, and there's no points for second best.

[shadowknows69]

2. End of the race, check mark in the W column.

[rug]

3. Except the nomination is not the finish line.

[Double T]

4. The 'wheezer' can barely cross the Primary Finish Line.

When confronted with the General Election Finish Line, I anticipate he'll be gasping for breath right out of the blocks.

[Exilednight]

5. He made it further than Hillary. Her campaign is currently on life support and .........

people close to her are wondering when to pull the plug.

[RC]

6. I haven't heard much wheezen from the winner yet. He won it in a walk. It's the

scratching and clawing and desperation of the also ran that is so deplorable.

[tekisui]

7. He's already been knocking MCDubya on his ass.

He is fighting McDubya completely different than how he fought Hillary.

[trumad]

8. Then you haven't really been paying attention...

He's already knocking the shit out of McBush.

[MercutioATC]

18. Maybe, but Clinton is doing even worse.

I don't agree that Obama's "wheezing", but if he is, Clinton has completely lost consciousness.

Why is it that some Clinton supporters insist on painting Obama as weak when their own candidate has been proven to be even weaker?

[joeybee12]

19. It's not the finals...this is just one of the heats before the finals...

...you get to advance, but no one puts his or her money on you anymore.

[H2O Man]

22. In a contest of two,

there are two places: first and last. "Close" counts in horse shoes and hand gernades, but not elections or boxing matches.
