Obama takes superdelegate lead

That’s it now isn’t it? We can have a general election this year now?

I’m so confused

    Nope, The Black Knight Hillary will hop around on one leg trying to head-butt Barack until he gets a vote of the delegate that give him the win. Then the stump of Hillary will be left on the trail yelling about biting his legs off (and her black ops people may do just that covertly so she has a clear run in 2012).

    With a Clinton it’s never ever ever over until it’s over. And it’s not over yet.

    Sometimes I think that she’s figuring that someone will shoot Mr Obama and she’ll get the nomination that way; other than that, I can’t see a winning strategy left for her.

    Trouble is, the lovely Mrs Clinton is probably right about one thing: she doesn’t think that Mr Obama can win in November, and she thinks that because he is black. But, running as a Democrat, she can’t come out and say that openly.

    My guess is that she’s now running for 2012; she believes that John McCain will win, and that her next best shot comes against a 77 year old incumbent Republican, after twelve straight years of GOP presidencies. By staying in the race now, she leaves herself open to say, “See, I told you so in 2008; you should’ve listened to me.” That she might continue to damage Mr Obama’s chances in November, she’ll hope everyone forgets.

    There’s also the popular theory that she is staying in the race to try and recoup some of the $11 million in debt she has accrued runnning her campaign.

    Yes.
