If Hillary doesn’t pull this out with super delegates, she’s not gonna be a very gracious loser.

I wouldn’t bet on this horse race for anything.

superdelegates will seal the deal for hillary,, obama will be asked to suck it up, his followers will stay home, Huckabee is the next President in an upset.

(scary script huh?)

obama is an even worse alternative.. what has politics come the when we are down to these as the “viable” candidates?

Super Delegates sounds like a Dean Wormer concept.

"That is a huge lie. Hillary Clinton was expected to wipe out Obama on Super Tuesday but she failed miserably to do so. Obama won 13 states, she won 8, and he won more "pledged" delegates that day."

That sure is a whopper of a lie, guys.

[Hillary Rodham Clinton had hoped her strong showing on Super Tuesday would halt Barack Obama's momentum.]

And "strong showing" is code for coming in second or third or fourth....

The Grifters are kidding no one.

You obviously have a Doctorate in understatement from Oxford. She will be as mean as a wolverine on steroids with a bad case of rabies.

Gracious or not, she'll still be a loser.

Maybe it is time for Hillary to really have a break-down now, she needs to get more hysterical.

Huckabee is the next President in an upset.

Huck would have to win all remaining primaries by a 85-15% to overtake McCain in delegates.

good post, I really enjoyed it!

and victories could be scarce for Clinton over the next few weeks if she doesn't prevail in today's closely contested Maine caucuses.

Ooops! She lost BIG in ME.

Think she'll be any more spiteful to her party as McInsane was/is to the GOP after South Carolina in 2000?

["The Clinton camp had tried to downplay the widely anticipated losses as old news..."]

Old news? It was yesterday.

I was waiting in line at the supermarket this afternoon and noticed one of the tabloids titles.

According to one of them Hillary and Bill have a secret contract. If she loses her bid for the presidency, they are going to get divorced.

That sure explains why Bill is messing up on the campaign trail so much lately.

**The perception? Huh? He’s killing her. It’s not a perception.**

True.

“Let’s Move On,” - right Billary? Not going to work this time.

Not to worry. She'll shed many tears for herself. It's all about her.

It's only a "perception" if you ignore the facts.
