Can Hillary really be gone?

If it’s true then we happily strap on our ruby slippers and sing….

See you in 2012 Hillary :)

Do you hear the fat lady sining? Is Hillary really gone?

Or is she just lurking in the shadows contemplating the VP nom? That’s the question. And that’s all we’ll hear about for the next 1000 or so news cycles. If she takes the VP nom she is counting on one thing and one thing only. You know it, but you won’t say it. Ask Vince Foster, he’ll tell you all about it :wink:

Hillary refuses to admit it’s over

In the latest sign Hillary Clinton isn’t yet preparing to bow out of the presidential race, the New York senator is launching a new television ad Monday that highlights her claim she is beating Barack Obama in the popular vote.

The spot is set to run in the remaining two primary states — Montana and South Dakota — and argues Clinton has won “more votes than anyone in the history of the Democratic primaries.”

Okay, she won Puerto Rico, but what does that mean? Puerto Ricans can not vote in the general election (yeah we know, that’s a whole other screwed up story) so their vote on Sunday means nothing. Hillary’s whole claim that she won the popular vote is based on Michigan and Florida. Both states violated the DNC rules. The primaries were flawed from the start. So the popular vote can’t be counted as reliable. Since they(the states and the DNC) refused to redo the primaries, the votes should not count. Hillary does not then have the popular vote. Will somebody please have the fat lady Oprah sit on Hillary and start singing?
