She would have been running around the decks telling everyone that the hole in the ship was tiny and NO way was it going to sink. McCain is getting stronger and stronger and not because everyone wants McCain but because everyone is enjoying the farce of Hillary clinging on for her life with only her dream of Empire holding her together. She knows she can't win but is setting herself up to say "i told you so" when Obama loses to McCain because of her refusal to accept that Obama has won. She obviously doesn't care about party unity and wants a shot at President in 4 years time. Winning Kentucky gets her no closer to being nominated but is splitting the Democratic vote drastically.
She won't run in 2012. Once a Democrat loses that's it.

She is different. Her ambition to become President overides everything else. She looked the other way when Bill screwed around, she probably told him that he had better back her when she runs for President. She doesn't give a damn about party unity. She will fabricate anything to win. Being the first female President is her quest no matter what she has to do to get there.

Ya gotta have money to run, it will be more even expensive the next trip, and Democrats only get one shot. If she were Republican I'd definitely agree.

She has the money. She hates using it and depends on donations. She lends her money to the campaign with hopes of getting it back. The poor suckers that she takes donations from will never see it back. Must tell you something if her and Bill can earn over $100,000,000 in 3 months and stll can't keep out of the red for her campaign.

I think that's gonna change. It's time to break some of these political "traditions." Just like its time to dump the idea that you have to win West Virginia.

ha. Obama and supports screaming that the ship was sunk and telling her to drown already. Dean and co. would be below decks working out how to change the rules of physics and sink the ship even though the hole wasn't big enough.

To date, most votes received by any candidate during the democratic primary is ---- Hillary!

Providing hope that given time, most will come to grips with the quality of the nominees the dems present. Some, like Carter, take four years but the end result is always the same

Obama and supporters were right "the ship sunk". Hillary didn't mind agreeing to Deans rule changing until she desperately needed the votes. She was "onboard" and signed the agreement that the Mi and Fl votes wouldn't count. Memory playing her up again?

Like in the UK, the election is not run on personal representation. If it was then many Presidents and prime ministers would not have been in office. The count is delegates. If you want Hillaries change in perception of how the Americans vote in a candidate, you must first change the way you count votes. For now it is delegates and she hasn't got anough delegates and she cannot get enough.

Enjoy the fantasy, Sunshine Chick. It's been a fun ride, but reality hits in about 10 hours.
