Big news folks - it looks like our efforts in contacting those Superdelegates are starting to pay off, so keep on writing to them (ok, maybe Donna B's a waste of time). There are unconfirmed reports, based on phone banking efforts to reach out to Super Ds, that eight previously Obama SDs expressed that, given the opportunity, they would vote for Hillary at the convention. I heard about an interview Will Bower of PUMA did recently, where he said delegates are starting to say they'll vote for Hillary in Denver if the DNC did the right thing and ran an open and fair convention. That means a roll call vote with Hillary's name put into nomination, and on the ballot.
So I shot an email to Bower to ask him where he got that info from, and here's what he sent me regarding the efforts of a friend of his
"A large phone banking effort to the super d's combined with Obama's flips and poor presumptive nominee performance, etc have yielded doubts within the super delegates, enough that 3 elected and 5 DNC members have confided that should they have the opportunity to do so, they will vote for Hillary." Maybe this is why BHO and the Toxic Trio are pushing so hard to keep Hillary off the roll call ballot eh? I've been wondering what they're so afraid of now it looks like we have part of the answer.
Alegre :: Breaking: Eight Supers Switching to Hillary I think Politico may have stumbled upon one or two reasons why the Supers are starting to take a fresh look at Hillary. The above news paints this article in a whole new light for me. MassLib touched upon all this in an earlier diary today re BHO being a PUMA but I thought this was worth another rant. The folks on the Hill (aka Super delegates) are getting pissed at BHO for the lack of effort on his part when it comes to fundraising, coordination and support theyre getting in their own bid for re-election etc. Todays Politico has the story
Interesting — if true.
The HILDABEAST sets alongside the closet Muslim, just patiently waiting, like a stalking boa constrictor. No hurry, she is confident he will self destruct, she grins with gleeful smirk.
FLOOR FIGHT!!! I LOVE IT!
I’m holding my breath.
Chaos. Resentment. Bitterness. Pain.
GO HILLDOG GO!!!!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
bwaahhahahahaha! LOL! A stalking boa constrictor! like grizzly bear slithering into your sleeping bag!
It's awful quite out there folks. Her big kiss-kiss event with THE Muslim in Unity, NH is the last we've heard from her.
A Google news search on Hillary shows, comparatively, little. Except that now there's some noise about Hillary running better against McCain.
Even Bill has gone to ground. A couple of articles about his speech ("We are becoming more and more divided.") to the Govs conference but that's about it.
Way too quiet out there.
Exept that if she is the Rat pick for President, then Hussein will certainly be the Veep.
He’d never take it. Not now.
PING! 
And the Drive-Bys have a better record?
