So, for you Clinton Whiners, remember, when McCain choses 3 new SC justices to replace Stevens (88), Ginsberg (78, and in poor health), and Souter (72, and not happy on the court), he will be replacing 3 liberal member with 3 like Sam Alito and John Roberts.
If this happens, it will be a conservative takeover of the country for a generation. This is not hyperbole.
3-2
3 goals in the last 5 minutes
Wow
What a SHAME that ESPN did not cover it honestly.
What is the point of this? It is just picking at a scab.
These Clinton supporters need to go through the 7 stages of grief. They do NOT need a provacateur who is trying to generate huge lists of insult war participants.
What is the point here? Please, defend this irresponsible piece.
Traister, you are fanning the flames of wacki resentment. There is a modest, but irrelevant, amount of sexism. Note, however, that Pelosi is Speaker of the House. She is in a place that no female has ever been before. How much sexism can there be?
Let's focus on kicking McCain's old, senile, Depends-clad butt.
Well, there are 12 in NYC, 2 in Scranton and 26 in Muncie, IN.
'And stop talking about "18 million." You don't speak for all 18 million. You don't even speak for 9 million.'
At this point, 11 % of Clinton's original 18 million are going to vote for McCain. Of those, probably 60 % are in NY and CA and IL, and do not matter. We are down to 4 %.
Of the 4 %, probably 1/4 are in states which Dems will not carry.
We are down to 3 %.
So, 3 %ers, what's your offer? Why should we take anything you say seriouslY?
I read the interview. He was asked point blank if he would filibuster.
He did not say "Yes, I will filibuster."
He said, "Well, that's what it means."
I don't agree that a filibuster is guaranteed.
You Clinto-wacks are increasingly irrelevant.
PA - BO 8 pt lead
MI - BO 9 pt lead
VA and IN - BO and JM TIED
Who the fuck cares what you PUMAs want? Whining bitches mostly.
When the fall comes, we will have a strong result. BO will be
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA
Then we will be accounting for WHO HELPED and WHO DIDN'T HELP
If YOU HELPED, the door will be open. Your issues will be heard. Your problems will be solved.
If YOU DID NOT HELP, NO ONE WILL GIVE A SHIT about you.
"As I've said before, McCain is running as a man of integrity. HE'S opened that door, HE'S making his past one of the platforms of his campaign. So I'm going to walk through that door and examine his choices, and if I think some of them don't speak well to his character, I will darn well say so."
I just love that.
When McCain returned from Vietnam, he found that his wife had been in a serious car accident, and had lost her great beauty. Being the man of integrity that he is and was, he immediately dumped her in favor of the slut he was currently fucking, Cindy McCain, a hot piece of ass 20 years his junior. He then had it all: No crippled wife, a really hot woman 20 years his junior, and 100 million dollars. In addition, people still thought of him as a man of integrity.
And we have these incredibly foolish Clinton supporters willing to support this scumbag? They are morons. Seriously. The man has no respect for women.
"Where are the guys I thought were so progressive - from Keith Obermann to Markos Molitsos? This campaign, and the aftershocks of it, has turned out to be a huge and depressing eye-opener. Yes, my friends, sexism towards women, notably past the babe stage is alive and well, and US left is still shooting itself in the foot.
Now the real challenge is to heal the wounds. If not for the sake of ridding the US of sexism, which thrives equally on the left and on the right, then for putting a Democrat in office.
Women are going to vote for Obama - they're too savvy not too.
"
I agree with much of what you say. 1) Women will vote for Obama. 2) They will not be happy doing so.
When you lose a close contest, no one requires that you be happy. You are not happy. I wouldn't be either.
It's the 7 stages of grief. Everyone goes thru them. I recently had a terrible and unfair loss at my place of work that I will not dwell upon. I am going thru the stages here. I am at about Stage 4.
You will go thru the stages too. I plan on volunteering, and getting my kids to do so as well.
Good luck getting thru grief.
Obama is ahead in WA, CA, OR as well.
In fact, McCain is not leading in any state that is arguably a battleground state, except FL. And Obama has a huge advantage in FL that many ignore.
Advantage: In FL, the republican governor Crist recently signed a law making it much much easier for felons released from prison to get their voting rights back. Possible 1,000,000 ex-felons will soon be voting. Most are black and most are dems. And most are ignored by polls looking at FL voting.
So, keep nursing that bitchy feeling, honey. Remember, in November, we will know who was on the bus, and who was trying to stop the bus.
When the bus gets to the finish line, only those on the bus get the credit. If you were not on the bus, you get nothing.
