Guess what Hillary Clinton is up to!

The Democratic party does not have a requirement for the delegates to vote for the candidate that won the primary. Did you know that? Even if Obama wins enough delegates, that does not insure the nomination.

Bill and Hillary have been working within the party to undermine Obama's lead in the primary. I did not know the Democratic party is against democracy, did you?

Yes - I was aware of that.

It's completely constitutional.


Sorry if you have a problem with that.

(and I'm an Obama supporter).

What is the purpose of the delegates? Are they not there to represent those who voted for them? If not then why do people vote?

People vote for which delegates will go to the convention to select the party's nominee. The delegates for the Democratic party are not bound to vote for the person they were chosen for. So, theoretically, Obama delegates could vote for Clinton. The thing is, if they did vote against who they were selected for, it would cause an uproar and destroy the party so it's very unlikely it would actually happen (in a way that would change the outcome of the election).

Hillary is about grabbing power at all costs, even if it means walking all over the Democratic process. Even if it means alienating more than half of the Democratic party to the point where we stay home in November and let McCain win.

Even the Electorial College works like that. It's happened at least once, maybe twice, that the EC of a particular state went against what the people of the state voted for.

Poor stupid Hillary has ensured the age of men will continue in the Presidency long after her candidacy thanks to publication of that Obama photo.

By resorting to racial/religious stereotypes she has shown herself without brains to be president.

Obama is the man, and its time for Hillary to get back in her box.

It is high time we had a woman in the white house, just not Hillary Clinton. Enough of the two family dynasty!

Either give evidence of this claim or quit it with the ugly personal attacks against her. Why is it that the Obamamaniacs aren't nearly as gracious as the man they claim to admire?

When have people ever been gracious about politics?
