The Democrats’ Dilemma
April 30th, 2008 by jack
Obama still leads in the delegate count, but his star is fading fast. Unfortunately for the Democrats, it is not likely to fade fast enough for Clinton to overtake him in the pledged delegate count before the Convention. If Obama wins the nomination, you can expect the union workers, a.k.a. the bitter clingers to God and guns, and the Hispanics, to stay home. Even worse, they might actually vote for McCain — especially the Hispanics, since McCain wrote the Amnesty Bill.
The other possibility is that the superdelegates can put Clinton over Obama. The job of the supers is to nominate the candidate they think has the best chance of winning in November. If they do put Clinton in, the Blacks will not stay home, they will go out and riot.
Either way, it’s lose-lose for the Democrats.
Can you say, “President McCain”? I knew you could.

I make no predictions. Anything can happen and I never underestimate McCain’s ability to piss off Conservatives and others with his left leaning policies and snarky demeanor.
I am keeping my fingers crossed that we elect the lesser of 2 evils, whether is be McCain v Clinton or McCain v Obama.

Here’s a scenario for you — the Supers give Clinton the nomination, and the following week, McCain names Michael Steele as his running mate!

mcLame is nowhere near that smart jack. The recent NC Republican ads linking Obama to Wright for use against two Democrat was denounced by McLame who had to back peddle when Obama called the issue legitimate. If McLame could stop he vendetta against conservatives long enough to realize who will butter his bread come November he might stop pursuing Democrats for votes and maybe he might win. The guy is a dud.

Jacob, I think McClain made the right call in PA. Let Clinton and Obama tear each other apart while he sits quietly on the sidelines.

Never underestimate the ability of Clinton Inc. to survie or the ability of either the Dems or GOP to shoot themselves in the foot, hand, belly…..
Too bad there isn’t a viable conservative third party to flee to.

The former Soviet Union accidently launches ICBM’s and America is wiped out. All life in United States is gone with the exception of cockroaches and Hillary Clinton. Hillary then tries to impose socialized medicine on the cockroaches.

Dan,
That is a good call, trouble is the dolt can’t keep his foot out of his mouth. To top it off the people he cheeses off the most are the rank and file conservative republicans.

Stone, The term “accidently” in reference to launching can be argued, but the plight of the poor cockroaches can not. They better start organizing now.

Greg, you can’t seperate species of cockroaches like that. Clinton/cockroaches are the same.
The Russians DON’T light off the ICBM’s and they let us have our elections. One of the 3 losers wins, the gov’t take all our guns and all our money (someone has to take care of the illegals) and leave the upper and middle class destitute. The Russians bring us bootleg vodka and blackmarket AK47’s. The Chinese send THEIR nukes and level our cities so that they can turn them into crop acreage for growing alternative fuel to sell to those people starving in the third world countries. Then the cockroaches EAT queen Hilly and die. No more cockroaches. Pretty simple, huh?

The super delegates need to protest by not picking either democratc candidate since niether one is electable. I predict that if Bore-rock doesn’t get the nomination that depression will be so wide spread that no one will go to the polls to even bother voting. Then the speaker of the house will get to do “one potato-two potato” to pick a winner.
