The same demographic/ethnic group that keeps Hillary alive and prevents Obama from "closing the deal", blue color, HS education or less, largely catholic white voters, aka Reagan Democrats may occasionally vote Democratic in local elections, but votes by at least a 2 to 1 margin for the GOP presidential candidate. True, 9 out of 10 African-American voters vote for Obama, but they have been the most loyal Democratic voters and we can't win the white house without their massive participation. A Democratic pollster said recently on Charlie Rose that the best the Democrats can hope from that group is to get 35 percent of them in November. This is why Clinton's wins in Ohio and Pennsylvania don't mean much, since her margin was archived through the support of voters who will largely vote for McCain in the fall.

is that Obama is unable to make inroads into the white, under-educated, racist white yobo voting block that ends up voting for the Republican presidential nominee every 4 years at a larger than 2 to 1 ratio. Boo-Hoo! If Obama maintains the black voting percentage, maintains the traditional Jewish vote for a Democratic candidate, gets the vote of educated young women, gets half of the independents and the new young vote, all very doable and very likely, McCain cannot win and Obama will be the next president. Yesterday's primary doesn't really mean anything, because there was never any possibility of Obama getting the white ignorant racist vote that's going to go for McCain anyway.

Nobel economist Joseph Stiglitz estimates the full cost of the invasion and attempted occupation of Iraq to be between $3 trillion and $5 trillion. The dollar price of oil and gasoline have tripled, and the dollar has lost value against other currencies, declining dramatically even against the lowly Thai baht. Before Bush launched his wars of aggression, with the willing and enthusiastic help of Sen. Clinton, one US dollar was worth 45 baht. Today the dollar is only worth 30 baht.

The US cannot afford these costs. Prior to his resignation last month, US Comptroller General David Walker reported that the accumulated unfunded liabilities of the US government total $53 trillion dollars. The US government cannot cover these liabilities. The Bush Regime even has to borrow the money from foreigners to pay for its wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. There is no more certain way to bankrupt the country and dethrone the dollar as world reserve currency.

The demographic block that gave Clinton her 9% margin of "victory" is going to vote by a large margin for McCain, who will continue the same kamikaze policy that has brought us these catastrophes. Most of her "wins" have been achieved through the support of this block of ignorant racist and clueless voters. They mean nothing and she is finished.

Hillary ran as a caste member of The Deer Hunter, playing Russian roulette in this instance with the Democratic Party’s chance for the White House and control of Congress. In the final days of the campaign she rhetorically obliterated Iran with the clear implication that this is what real Presidents do, whether at 3 am, after breakfast or before dinner. What was Obama meant to do? Come on as a gun-toting black man? The Pennsylvania State Troopers would have gunned him down.

Hillary must know that she cannot possibly win the nomination by any rational standard. Hence the comic moment on Tuesday when her finance chairman Terry McAuliffe was asked to define what Mrs Clinton would invoke as a fair claim on the Democratic nomination. McAuliffe said it would either be a victory in the popular vote in Democratic primaries and caucuses - including Michigan and Florida – (a very remote contingency) or a lead in the pledged delegates (an impossibility) or a lead among Superdelegates (among whom, since March 6, HRC has collected 12 and Obama 88) or there would be a consensus among party leaders that Obama is incapable of beating McCain. Obama is still ahead of McCain, though thanks to Mrs Clinton’s efforts the margin is narrowing.

In other words there’s no rational scenario here, except the her real Hillary plan to ensure a McCain victory this year and come back in 2012.

Bush has always believed that he was owed the presidency and that getting an actual majority of voters was a small tedious detail that would be taken care of by Carl Rove, the Supreme Court and his daddy's cronies. Hillary Clinton thinks just like him. The fact she's behind in the delegate count and popular vote and has no chance of overtaking Obama, means nothing to her. She believes the nomination belongs to her and that it's the duty of the DNC to finagle a way to make her the nominee, although she has lost the nomination process. Beyond the disgusting fact that although most of her voters aren't racist, she gets her margin of victory in states with large older, white, undereducated demographics from a group of voters who is racist and ignorant, would never vote for a black candidate, and tends to vote for the GOP presidential candidate.

The undecided super delegates will break for the Obama, the candidate with a majority of pledged delegates and popular votes. The Clinton camp will say that decision is null and void since the Florida and Michigan delegations have been denied a vote, which is undemocratic, so they will go all the way to the supreme court to deny Obama's certification as the Democratic party's candidate. It will be Florida 2000 all over again, and it will drag into October. All the while Joan Walsh will say that the democratic and legal process needs to run its course and there should be no attempt made by the DNC to force the issue, because there's no rush.

He would be better served if he searched for Noah's ark, since he would stand a much better chance of finding it than the WMD.
