Last night, Greta van Susteren interviewed Hillary Clinton on Fox News. This was the most interesting exchange:
VAN SUSTEREN: And if he says, no, I won't do it, that leaves Michigan and Florida out. And does that leave you out?
CLINTON: No. Not at all, because we are going to make sure those votes get counted, one way or another.
VAN SUSTEREN: How?
CLINTON: Well, you know, you can always go to the convention. That is what credential fights are for. You know, let's have the Democratic Party go on record against seating the Michigan and Florida delegations three months before the general election? I don't think that will happen. I think they will be seated. So that is where we are headed if we don't get this worked out.
A credentials battle in Denver! Every Republican's dream! If Hillary is to be believed--always a big "if" where the Clintons are concerned--it may become a reality.
That will happen regardless of who wins.
When will this rotten B movie end? Seems to be going on forever.
I’m NOT enthusiastic about McCain, but for a variety of reasons his VP pick will be one of the most important decisions in the whole campaign.
-———————————————————>
I got a call from the RNC asking for a contribution. I told them not until we find out who McCain chooses as his running mate.
The guy babble on about winning seats in Congress for the Republicans. Told him if we didn’t have a real conservative on the Ticket as VP,don’t call me back.
At that point in time I told him I was willing to let the chips fall where they may.
He was speechless. Hope the call was recorded for “Quality”
purposes.
Money talks, but as I grow older I’ve found the lack of it speaks louder.
I’m sitting this election out, but it’s fun to watch. We are basically a one party country now, anyway, so if we split the Democrats in two, will that make us a two party country again?
A left and a far left?
Good point! My vote has to be “earned,” not received by default.
And volunteering time, giving money, being enthusiastic and all the rest is necessary too. Not just holding one’s nose and voting.
Glad to speak to a kindred spirit.
Thieves stealing from Thieves to gain control of the Party of Thieves.
Last nite Begala said "when monkeys fly out of my butt".....What a CLASSY GUY!!!
There, I fixed it for you.
Well, as much as I hate to agree with a Clinton I have to say I agree with Chelsea. How it affects their FAMILY is none of our business. How the affair affects Bill's ability to be president, the issue of taking advantage of an intern, etc - that's the stuff that's our business. And Chelsea wouldn't have a useful opinion on that.
Clinton Inc. never fails to amaze us.
I’m hoping and praying McCain picks a conservative for the VP... it might only be a nod to conservatives, but it’d be better than nothing.
Isn’t life grand.... :)
There is an "H-Bomb" in your future.
The question did not have to do with effects on the family. The question was whether it reflected on Hillary’s credibility. Fair game, IMO.
The “Who” is Osama Obama. He refuses to work out a way to have new primaries in Fla and Mi.
Coward Dean said he is OK with having do-over primaries but both Hillary and B-HO have to agree.
B-HO will only agree to a meaningless 50-50 split of the delegates to have them seated.
Hildabeast is right on this one and B-HO is blocking the Fla and Mi delegates which will cause a floor fight at the convention.
I look forward to watching them rip each other's guts out at the convention!
Crossover voters vote for Hillary! The left gave us John McCain with their crossover votes because they thought McCain was the easiest one to beat....It’s all blowing up in their faces. We are going to end up with McCain thanks to crossover voting who basically no one will like.
I'm with you, but I think it's more than a 'nod'. It's probably a 50-60% chance this VP would run for POTUS in 2012, and if McCain were to want and win a second term, a 95% chance this pick would run for POTUS in 2016. There's a lot at stake in this pick.
The pick also sends a signal to the liberal SCOTUS judges. If it's a conservative pick they're more likely to retire while McCain is POTUS.
