Someone tell Hillary it's time

Short of a miracle, Hillary Clinton will not win the Democratic Party nomination. So why is she staying in the race? Well, the short answer is I don't know. I don't really think a lot of people really understand what is going on in her mind. All I know is that it would be to the party's advantage if she stepped aside.

 

The nomination has dragged on for far too long. The nomination process is a broken one. I don't see why a nationwide vote isn't held on the same day, perhaps around this time of the year.

 

But that's beside the point. The longer the nomination process drags on, the more time McCain will have to strategize and to let them throw mud at each other while the media gives him a free pass. I belive Clinton is hurting her party's chance of beating McCain in November, and as much as I don't like the Democrats, a Repubican is a much scarier choice.

 
 
 

   
ACK! Seriously...
Okay, so seriously... do we need another president whose motto appears to be "stay the course?"  I'm not talking about Iraq people... I'm simply talking about knowing when to quit.  Hillary seriously cannot still believe that she can still win this race.
 
 
   
 

Clinton Tells Vocal Obama Supporters: “I’ll Work My Heart Out For Him”
Clinton Tells Vocal Obama Supporters: “I’ll Work My Heart Out For Him”

RALEIGH, N.C. -- During the annual North Carolina Democratic Party's Jefferson Jackson Dinner tonight, Hillary Clinton said she will not only back Barack Obama if he is the party’s nominee, she will work hard for him.

“If Senator Obama is the nominee, you better believe I’ll work my heart out for him,” Clinton said.

The comment seemed to backfire, as the large Obama presence began chanting his name, "causing Clinton to pause and try to regain control of the podium and talk over the chants.

She immediately followed up saying if she is the nominee, Obama “will do the very same for me.” It is unclear if that line was part of her original speech or if she used it as a way to bounce back from the interruption.

The crowd of 5,200 people seemed relatively split between Clinton and Obama supporters, but Obama’s crowd was certainly more vocal. At one point Clinton thanked Gov. Mike Easley, D-N.C., for his recent endorsement, which drew loud jeers from the Obama section. The "boos" went on long enough for Clinton to, again, have to pause. She said, “One of the great things about our country, you can support whoever you want to support, that’s the way America works best,” which drew loud cheers from her supporters.

This has been one of the most audibly divided Jefferson-Jackson Dinners to date. The fund-raising dinners are held annually by the Democratic Party of each state, but in previous ones, the crowds have been slightly more respectful of each candidate.

Clinton spoke broadly of the differences between Democrats and Republicans in the coming election. She reassured the crowd that if she is elected, she will not back down to a fight. "I am no shrinking violet. When I say I will stand up for you I will stand up for you!"
 
 
 

   
Go Ahead, Make my Head Pop
Darnell

I had the worst conversation today. Ever have one of those conversations where someone says something and you instantly get a headache? Yeah, it was one of those, man.

I was talking to a neighbor and somehow we got onto the upcoming election. We were chatting away about the people running when another neighbor made his way up the steps and saw us. He comes over to say hello when he hears what we're talking about. He says, "Yeah, choosing between Clinton and Obama is going to be tough."

"Well, I can't vote in the Democratic primary anyway, I'm registered  Republican, so I don't get much say there," I say.

"Dude, the primaries are over."

"Um, no they aren't."

 "Yeah, they are. We have to choose between Obama and Clinton."

"Yeah, for the primary."

"No, dude, they're it. That's it."

"Actually, dude, you need to read the newspaper once in a while. They are both Dems, which means they really can't run against each other past the primaries. We haven't finished our primary yet. In the end, which ever one of them wins the primaries at the very, very end will run against McCain probably. I think Paul is still there, but he doesn't have a chance in hell."

"Oh, that doesn't make any sense."

"So who are you going to vote for?"

"Oh, I don't vote." And he skips away into the sunset holding some flowers and whistling "Home on the Range." Ok, I made that part up.

At least he knew who some of the candidates were, although his face went blank when I mentioned McCain and Paul. But the whole conversation gave me a headache and it almost became a migraine at the close of it.

How hard is it to watch the news or read a newspaper once in a while, ya know?
