Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Nancy Pelosi in an interview to be aired on ABC tomorrow says that the Superdelegates will back whoever is ahead in the pledged delegates. To do otherwise she said would be "harmful" to the Democratic Party. She also said that even if one candidate has a lead in the popular vote while the other has the lead in pledged delegates that it is all about the delegates "the way the system works is that the delegates choose the nominee"

Does anyone else get the same impression from this? Apparently this will air on "This Week" tomorrow. ABC's headline was "Pelosi's delegate stance boosts Obama". If my take is correct then I should imagine that the party as a whole will begin to allign with Obama and the pressure for Hillary (sorry TBK) to quit will be increasing daily.

I am wondering if in exchange for her quiting her presidential ambitions Hillary will want the VP spot. A fee months ago I wouldn't think Hillary would want to be VP, but who knows, things change.

It would be a huge mistake if she was on the ticket and in that case, it would be better is she not quit and Obama beats her in the long run without having to make deals.

Hillary is not going to be Obama's choice for VP.

Hillary stands in opposition to his entire campaign narrative. I've expressed my support for Jim Webb many times. He's got the military bonafides and his son has served in Iraq. He's a perfect counter to John McCain, and he articulates the difference of opinion that an infantryman like Webb has versus a flyboy like McCain.

It really would be fantastic if Obama could pick a woman though. But Hillary isn't the one.

HE?

This is of course assuming that Obama has more delegates. Who knows what will happen in the coming months. Will Obama be assassinated even?

Member - I am thinking that the deal may be a SCOTUS spot rather than VP. Personally as I have said before if I were Obama I would never offer TBK the VP slot, it is the surest way in the world to guarantee a bullet to the head come inauguration day. Just MHO.

"Member - I am thinking that the deal may be a SCOTUS spot "

OMG! That is even worse than Hillary preident! At least if she was presidente it would be a meximum of eight years, but int eh SCOTUS she could do damage for 20 maybe 25 yeaars!

I hope the Republicans don't lose any Senate seats then.

Nancy doesn't want any other woman higher than her.

And Obama is not going to win--This is going to Hillary.

Obama has lost his credibility--and they will find tithing checks on the dates the Pastor made the sermon tapes.

Obama says he never heard this hate speech--but he is not being candid.

How can a person of "hope" reconcile the incongruity of hearing this hate speech every Sunday?

Obama never did anything--like leave the church when the pastor gave the life time achievement award to Farrakan.

That was a real big clue right there big guy.

I was attending a United Church of Christ or some such name about 10 years ago. It took me three months to get the scoop on their un-Christ methods and twisting of the Bible and you name it.

When I saw one mother ask the mother of another child if she could have permission to spank that mother's child--with a wooden spoon no less--I was out of there with both my kids.

Then I found all this shit on the internet--reveal.com or something.

Obama knew and so did his wife--who I liked.

Their pastor is one scary guy and this is the stuff being preached in black churches across America--and they call whites racist. What a friggin joke.

yeah, like Nancy Pelosi is sooooo respected

As a life long Liberal Democrat from San Francisco, Ca. the district that Nancy Pelosi represents, I have found that her time as Speaker has been a complete wast of time. As Speaker History is your for the making, she has proven not to be up for the job. This Administration has proven to be a disaster for the American People, an because of that the Congress need to be more asertative,it has not been an she has not been.

One can only hope that the next election will give us more members an our leaders will grow some BALLS an put this Administration where it belongs in the depths of our History, what a fucking disgrace.............

If my take is correct then I should imagine that the party as a whole will begin to allign with Obama and the pressure for Hillary (sorry TBK) to quit will be increasing daily.

If the Dem establishment wanted to nudge Hillary out of the race, they could get as many uncommitted superdelegates as possible to issue a joint statement saying they will vote for the pledged delegate leader.

Don't hold your breath Rcade.

I've been saying from the beginning that she is the party's anointed. The party has the problem that they can't make it look that way.

Poor Nancy is really in a no-win situation, isn't she? Not that I differ on her interpretation of "moderate" to mean you don't pull out the troops now. But Christ on a crutch, she's doing the best she can, and I know no one in congress who'd be better. Well, maybe Kucinich. herm

Nice democracy vote for leader or else.

Pelosi is useless. Let's be honest. She's useless.

Nancy has done doodle shit since becoming queen bee. You can take her promises straight to the garbage can..

the party that can screw up any free lunch is again pissing in their lemonade.
chillary is not going to get the majority and it should not need saying that the votes should go to the leader.
as herm pointedly said, 'christ on a crutch'.
well, yeah...

there'a weak republican candidate (following the worst president in history - rep or dem) just waiting to be a victim of some democratic buck shot (with due respect to cheney). this is the dem's election to lose.
can they once again find a way to turn something grand into a gold-painted turd.
well... yeah

all the best

Pelosi shouldn't be explaining to us about delegates being more important than the popular vote, we already know that. She should explain how it works to Algore. That asshole still thinks that he should be POTUS instead of the president of Hollywood.

Also the worst president is not Bush it was John Kennedy with Jiummy Carter a close second. Kennedy escalated the Vietnam War, chickened out at the Bay of Pigs and then almost started WWIII when he tried to correct his mistake in Cuba. What an asshole.

To do otherwise she said would be "harmful" to the Democratic Party...

Ms. Pelosi ought to talk. If anybody has been "harmful" to the Democratic Party it's her and Senator Harry Reid -- two losers who have wasted their chance as leaders of the House and Senate since 2006 because they are both too weak and milquetoast to really fight back and get anything done.

Why are "Superdelegates" even needed? If the Dems go by the will of the people when selecting a person to run for office, then these "Superdelegates" are not needed.

This crap on Meet the press this morning is disgusting.

This Clinton shill makes me want to puke!

As much as I liked Bill as president, I am so disgusted by this Mich and FL crap. This shill has the nerve to say those primaries were perfectly fair.

Fortunately, Russert is all over her but it is still nauseating.

If Hill is the nominee, I'm voting for McCain. Not his biggest fan by any means, but this bullcrap is about as bad as Bush anyway.

Sure nancy and I have a bridge to sell you!

Obama's going to win the popular vote, and hrc is going to steal the super delegates, there by winning the nomination

..and then the Obama base is going to riot!!!!

Either way JM is going to win the WH.

bocaink.....I agree....that old bitty was an embarrassement and at one point I had to change the station because she was a total waste of time.


and MURPHY SAID


Obama has lost his credibility--and they will find tithing checks on the dates the Pastor made the sermon tapes.

Obama says he never heard this hate speech--but he is not being candid.

How can a person of "hope" reconcile the incongruity of hearing this hate speech every Sunday?

Obama never did anything--like leave the church when the pastor gave the life time achievement award to Farrakan.


yes yes yes AND YES...........you must have heard george will this morning as well say the very same thing.....if they get proof he was there on those days, he is in serious trouble and I believe this puts his race in trouble anyway.
and all you have to do is listen and understand.
this RASCISTS< class war monger didnt choose obama. OBAMA CHOSE HIM and stayed there for 20 years and DIDNT KNOW HE WAS A RASCISTS BASTARD?

but here is maybe a even more troubling case for obama.
I can only assume that you smart than EVERYONE else libs know all about obamas fuck up as it applies to rezko now shown to have given a QUARTER OF A MILLION and 0bama has admitted that he "MADE REPEATED LAPSES OF JUDGEMENT" and thats a direct quote from barak HUSSEIN obama...
and this along with the RASCISTS AND VILE pastor and MENTOR means that obama will unite the country...
I dont think so.......

and again....AS G WILL said......for years and years the dems have been talking about racial stuff and with the slightest little comment they branded people as all sorts of bad things and now they are getting thier own medicine...and we on the right just love it when the sanctamonious pricks get it right back in their face.
and to think that if they had primaries like they want the general election to be, then they would have a candidate already in all likelihood.
so their bullshit is getting to them in this case as well.

And you, BLT, would of course prefer a candidate who, like George W Bush, will continue to divide the country, send thousands to die for nothing, make fun of the economic crisis, and go on home to his brown grass.

sitdown.......two of your comments dont mean a fuckin thing to me because they are laced with leftists nonsense, so in hopes of a good discussion, lets look at some of the other things......well except I have to go and throw money out the window at the horse track.....

but here is my question.....obama and the beast and all dems tell us that we have to vote for a dem if we want to unite the nation....so how does that work. if a dem is elected I will all of a sudden be all about obama? I dont think so. who says that their policies of raising personal taxes up to 52% and capital gains and other taxes all up to well over 35 % and higher will bring us together in anything but a list with the irs.

remember we know what a dem thinks bipartisanship is......thats where we do whatever the hell they want.........and homies dont play that game no mo...( a little ghetto talk for you to show the racial and hatefull reverend from chicago that even us honkies got some soul)
and I guess it will unite us because you can see millions of people just SMELLING THE GIVEAWAYS>....tasting the idea of getting everything they need FOR NOTHING from the government.....when in fact its the middle income taxpayer who will be paying for all of that....and who is that? me and you.......


obamamania may be in for some tough times....
so whats your take on all that?

I would give you of mine own but as we all know.
I dont make predictions.


And you, BLT, would of course prefer a candidate who, like George W Bush, will continue to divide the country, send thousands to die for nothing, make fun of the economic crisis, and go on home to his brown grass.

Or....who,

Hillary?

She should be elected because she is the one who can go the distance against the republicans.

Her words not mine.

rwd

if a dem is elected I will all of a sudden be all about obama? - BLT

No, uniting the country, or trying to, I should say, clearly doesn't include you. You have had your long seven-plus years of Bush. You are one of the sanctImonious pricks you think "we" are.

So I guess when a Democrat is elected, and I hope it will be Obama, you are not going to have fun.

I will pay taxes as I have for many years and complain about where they are going, for sure. I'd like to see the Defense Budget reduced by about 50% for starters, but we won't get there. I won't have much fun either, but I will be glad to believe we have a human being in the White House and not a drugged-up paranoid idiot and his Uncle Dickhead.

I interviewed a Superdelegate yesterday:

Blog entry on interview with Mitch Ceasar, Broward County Florida DEC Chair, DNC Executive Committee member and Superdelegate to the Democratic Convention
Here is the direct link to the interview:
FreeWorldRadioNetwork.net/
Broadcasts/SA/20080315/
Mitch talked about the chances of the so-called do-over election in Florida, and what it will take to seat the Florida delegation. Plus, he answered the question, "Will the Superdelegates make the difference in Denver?"

Hans

"So I guess when a Democrat is elected, and I hope it will be Obama, you are not going to have fun."

Don 't hold your breath about this, Sitty. They are arming their swift boats even as we speak, printing up their Impeach O'Bama bumper stickers and generally fixin' to be just about as ugly a minority party as this nation has ever seen. herm

This is going to be one nasty election, I can hear Herr Karl licking his chops at the thought of going after either Obama or Hillary.

drugged-up paranoid idiot and his Uncle Dickhead.


HEY I think I saw them in a porno review in vegas......


and I cant believe you actually WANT a 50 % reduction in defense.....cant you see where that got us when blowjob did that?
but I guess your side doesnt care about 9/11.....or you might not want to go right back to that level of preparedness.
and that kind of thinking also helped keep kerry from winning.

"and I cant believe you actually WANT a 50 % reduction in defense....."


I can't believe it either, because none of the candidates other than Nader want *any* reduction in defense spending.

Dean and Pelosi have the responsibility to settle this.

I know there won't be a significant reduction in Defense spending. I just wish there would be the courage to consider such a course. There is more waste there than in all other government expenditure put together and then some.

What I would like is a true post-Cold War relationship among our fellow human beings in the world. I like to think the world has learned something from the horrors of the 20th Century. Hard I know, but "progress" does happen.

Obama demonstrates a willingness to even think of that as a concept. No other candidate comes close.

I think we can all agree on the wastefull spending or rather the stupid prices that are paid.....just how much WAS that famous toilet seat?

obama could do one thing though......this man who so many of you think can unite the country wont even appear on fox news sunday after telling wallace that he would.
so this man who we should trust with dealing with the maniacs of the world is too much of a pussy to appear on a political show...my guess is that they wont agree to softball questions.

fox news
is yellow journalism

who cares about fox
