Interestingly, Clinton's being so deeply in denial, still, should eventually lead to a less problematic break when Obama finally does not invite her to be the Vice Presidential nominee. For all the talk that 40% of her supporters will never vote for Obama, that number ...

Do NOT Do It Barack; Tonight's Hillary Clinton Speech Was Unacceptable
swarheit.blogspot.com 6/4/2008 — As Barack Obama takes the stage, about to give his first speech as Democratic nominee, I am about as furious as I have ever been at Hillary Clinton. Instead of being gracious, instead of talking about party unity, and not just providing it lip-service, she allowed and even encouraged her supporters to chant "Denver! Denver!" She said she won the popular vote, the swing states, and was best to ...

That adviser on John McCain’s campaign staff who suggested that the Arizona senator might want to give a sleepy, uninspiring, ill-rehearsed, ungracious speech in front of an unenthusiastic crowd, all of whom needed a couple of shots of Lil Jon’s Crunk Juice, in a sparsely-populated Louisiana auditorium, on the very same night that Barack Obama, current gold medal champ of American ...
Cenk Uygur: Hillary Holds Her Voters Hostage — Huffington Post Entertainment Blog
