Tom Edsall writes on the Huffington Post:
Quote : | " Hillary Clinton s campaign has a secret weapon to build its delegate count, but her top strategists say privately that any attempt to deploy it would require a sharp and by no means inevitable shift in the political climate within Democratic circles by the end of this month.
With at least 50 percent of the Democratic Party s 30-member Rules and Bylaws Committee committed to Clinton, her backers could -- when the committee meets at the end of this month -- try to ram through a decision to seat the disputed 210-member Florida and 156-member Michigan delegations. Such a decision would give Clinton an estimated 55 or more delegates than Obama, according to Clinton campaign operatives. The Obama campaign has declined to give an estimate." |
I know you die-hard tax loving socialist Obama lovers don't like to talk about the facts generally and love the newest political slang words to get votes, so i'll break this to you as easy as possible:
3 simple points to discuss:
1) she want's the white house at all costs. Do you think she's willing to turn on Obama?
2) If not you think she's going to give the repubs more ammo for post convention purposes?
3) Hillary wants the White house and I think she's crazy enought to "appear" to be like Mccain to elect him just so she can get a 2012 bid at it.5/27/2008 4:27:56 PM |

I think she is dangerous, but wont harm Obama's presidential run. Instead use it as leverage to get a cabinet position if he gets elected. 5/27/2008 4:30:13 PM |

I doubt she's angling for a cabinet position; if she's gunning for any other position outside of the Presidency, she's probably going for a Senate Majority Leader. Of course, if that was her real goal, she probably could have negotiated that by now. As she keeps pushing forward, she's reducing the chances of that happening each and every day. 5/27/2008 7:46:51 PM |
