Floor Fight, Here We Come (Hillary threatens DNC on Greta's show)
Powerline ^ | 3/27/2008

Posted on 03/27/2008 7:17:03 AM PDT by Uncledave

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.

The delegate count is too close for her to give up. Why shouldn’t she take it to the convention? Barak isn’t any more entitled to the nomination than she is, as he cannot reach the required number of delegates without a fight either.

Both Dem candidates are scary, but Barak much more so IMO. I’d much rather see Hillary get the nomination, as she’d be a less horrible president than Hussein-Obama by a long shot.

Denver Alert!
There is an “H-Bomb” in your future.


This dem-on-dem crime would be radically more fun for me if that convention wasn’t going to be 20 miles from my house. What a pain. A buddy of mine happens to be a cop from a non-Denver city and they are already starting to train for this mess. It will be the dumb-a$$ protestors that will cause the problems. You know how dems are when they don’t get their way.... they set things on fire, flip things over, throw rocks and generally raise H#ll thinking it will help. We don’t have the jail space. I should learn how to make rubber bullets and tear gas..... we’re going to need’em.

The way I see it is if the delegates are not seated, Michigan and Florida voters, and Hillary supporters will raise cane at the convention. Perfect.

Stock up on Pop Corn, hot dogs, and beer (Pop for the kids). This is going to be great entertainment.

“How it affects their FAMILY is none of our business.”
She wasn’t asked how it affected the family, she was asked howit affected hillary’s credibility (in the election).

A very legitimate question. The questionner was a hillary supporter.

So you totally ignore the concept of the right of the people to elect their representatives? Really, this whole 'superdelegate" thing is nothing more than a banana republic system of stealing power from the people and giving it to the elites.

Please point out one country in the world where the "eliets" have done a better job than free and honest elections.

“CCW”

You bet we do. Wife & I have been talking about that for months. We need to get off our ***’s and get that done!

My house is well protected and except for the Rockies games in August, I won't be going anywhere near that convention center. I just don't want to end up having to pay for this ‘privilege’.

LOL!! Reminds me of the scene in “Mommy Dearest” where Joan Crawford (Faye Dunaway) is sitting in a Pepsi board meeting and says, “Don’t f@#* with me, fellas. This isn’t my first time at the rodeo.” Gives a whole new meaning to “Being rode hard and put away wet” too many times!!

I heard a guy from IBM talking about some salesmen getting “scorched earth” sales. He said it was when they did everything they could to get the sale to the point of alienating the customer for any future sales.

Hillar is going for the scorched earth convention win.

If that works, the only way she could become president would be through the same scorched earth tactics.

I will be blunt here: If she actually ends up being our next president, I will seriously study the possibility that she is the LITERAL antichrist. That would be worst case scenario. Best case scenario is that this country will end up in anarchical civil war.

I am DEAD searious here.

Well, the liberals may find that riots in a gun state weren’t as much fun as they thought they would be!

Interseting.

In one of the states Hillary was the ONLY Dem. on the ballot. Guess not all votes count unless they are for ole HIllary? Yup - she’s real “credible”. LOL!
