The Clinton legal machine will spring into action.





Texans won't brag about voting for a democrat. The last Democrat they voted for was Jimmy Carter. Heck, they'll end up being frightened into voting for McCaintco.

Hillary would do well being gracious and conceding. You are probably correct in saying she won't give in. Makes for good TV at the convention. Big ratings.

Count on her not conceding any time soon.  I think she'll fight for it even more embarrasingly than Teddy did in 1980.  The Clintons are running around telling people that the primary elections really don't mean anything.  Those delegates are up in the air till the DNC.

I could honestly see Hill's ego being large enough to keep it tied up in courts till after the convention.  The Clinton's are loyal to the party so long as it's loyal to them.  It's Hillary's turn you Democrats, don't you get that?

"Senator Hillary Clinton implies that She or McCain would be a better President than Obama. Now, Senator Clinton is campaigning for McCain. Joe Lieberman, move over. Beyond being a betrayal of the Democratic Party, She "balked" at describing any -- repeat, any -- foreign policy experience that would make her more reliable to pick up a WH phone at 3 AM. Shameless.

Come on FOTD.

You just posted slander from a blogger.

Hillary didn't say she liked McCain over Obama.
Power is nothing till you use it.

^No, but she did imply that only she and McCain have the necessary experience to be president:

quote:


"I think that I have a lifetime of experience that I will bring to the White House. I know Senator McCain has a lifetime of experience to the White House. And Senator Obama has a speech he gave in 2002."



Yet, when pressed, she cannot give specifics of that experience.  Here is the problem of continuing the campaign beyond any hope of winning--the tendency to start attacking and thus ruining our chances of winning in the fall.

What effect, if any do any of you believe exit poll results in Ohio and Texas will have on the vote as it goes into the late afternoon and evening?

I've always thought exit polling unfairly benefits or hurts candidates when voters get in their car to go to the polls undecided and hear a report of who is winning, that it becomes a herd mentality.

We don't need your rude insults, FOTD.

This forum stands out because people can debate both sides of many topics and are willing to do their homework and back up what they believe.

You do not.

She needs to accept her fate, suck it up and accept losing. There's nothing left to debate except the future of the Democratic Party.

She's a loser.

I need not point this out. Monica made it evident.

Our own little example at TNF of how the frightwing is rooting for Billary all of a sudden.....

FOTD, you are giving us Obama supporters a very bad image.

If Hillary wins both Texas and Ohio, she should be treated as a viable candidate.

Obama has won eleven in a row and has outspent Hillary by over two-to-one in both states. The format and Texas rules favor his campaign strengths clearly. Texans get to vote in a primary and a caucus and the delegate distribution puts extra weight in Austin and Houston with large black and student populations. Losing after winning all those in a row, having your strengths as part of the rules and doubling your campaign spending over your opponent would be a terrible blow.

His failure to close the deal should worry his supporters.

Losing big states is not the way to win the White House. Obama is far from winning this election. He needs over 2,000 delegates and only has 1,300 today and is only 100 in front of Hillary.

You don't stop the Indianapolis 500 car race after 350 miles because one car has a small lead. That is especially true if the car in second is catching up.

I'm throwing Hillary to the wolves today. She's giving Democrats a very bad image not to mention how she is aiding and abetting the enemy. She'd be more likely to run as veep with McCaint at this juncture the way she has chosen to campain.

This is Oklahoma. Do you think Obama supporters here make any difference?

Uh, NO. FOTD/AOX or whatever else he calls himself gives TNF a bad image.
