Have they really looked at how they come across?? They are saying - the only way our guy can win is by Hillary stepping down!!

Is that a sign of a winner?
Is that showing confidence in their ability to win on their owwn?? -
Do they really think that McCain will step down too??

the two references you mention are but two of many.  nancy pelosi is not on the panel at msnbc.  by her measure, delegate swapping, back door strategies are not going to get it done.

i know.  she is one of them.

not really.

by the rules set up by your dnc, this race is finished.  there are states to go and i hope each is contested respectfully.  but this is holland after the fall of berlin.

Could it be that they're afraid to lose some the last remaining big state?

Once again, I ask you all:P  When you go to vote, be it primary or general election, ask yourselves how you can be SURE that your vote will be counted as you intend.  If your answer is in some form of "I guess I just have to trust the experts, 'cause I just dunno" then you will never know if you are being robbed of your vote.

Given the dirty tactics of BOTH political parties, do you really think some honorable urge NOT to steal an election if they can get away with it will come to the fore?

They're not qualified to vote in the primary ...

Or they live in a caucus state and their first, second, even third choice of candidate isn't allowed to count.

Or they live in Texas and have to vote twice.

Pledged delegates are supposed to vote for their candidate ...

But they're not required to.

Super delegates can vote for whoever they like ...

But everyone will tell them they aren't supporting the will of the people if they don't vote a particular way.

Do I want a President Obama telling me that I'm a racist because I think it was LBJ and not JFK,  whose work and experience led to the passage of the Civil Rights Act?

There's a Door and behind that door is Obama, his supporters and me supporting Obama.

On that door is a sign.  That sign says "The Clintons are racist."

I will not walk through that door.

There's another door.

Behind that Door is Obama and me supporting Obama.

There's a sign on that door.

The sign reads:  "The Clintons are Liars."

I will not walk through THAT door, either.

If Obama would like to situate himself behind a different door, then we go from there.

And I'll add, as far as these considerations are set down by myself for the sake of setting SOME boundaries, I don't care if she loses.  I would like her to win.  But her losing alone won't keep me from supporting Obama.

This wouldn't be sour grapes cause Clinton lost.

That would simply be one person deciding that if the Obama movement becomes the official and dominant movement of the Democratic Party and that movement INCLUDES telling Republicans that hating Clinton is OK by us (Democrats), then I'm done.

Simple.

So it'll be hard choices time soon for Obama.

Hard choices time for his supporters as well.

You remember something from one country -- but it actually happened in another country.

It would be my guess however that maybe some of these people that are in a total snit -

No.

2/27/1990 Philadelphia Inquirer article it has the opening paragraph:
Barack Obama, former street urchin and the first black editor of the Harvard Law Review, drapes his long, lean body over a squeaky swivel chair and puts his feet on top of his cluttered desk.
Then it goes on to say:

He thinks it all goes back to the years when he was a nomad of the streets and his friends were a pack of urchins living in Jakarta, Indonesia.

And later:

But the lessons he had learned on the streets of Jakarta kept haunting him.
"I knew I wanted to work in an urban situation, to help people recognize that they could achieve things, change things."

Am I missing something -- I don't remember ever hearing this before. It was my understanding that his step father was a wealthy oil company executive and that they had lived a large home, had servants, ect.
