The Denver Group: Maybe Outside CHANCE Lee Mercer Jr. is to be the 2008 nominee after all.
Edited on Sat Jul-12-08 10:48 PM by crispini
"...Maybe, just maybe, a bunch of delegates to the Democratic Convention in Denver will change their minds at the last minute. Maybe there is an outside chance that between now and the last week of August a critical mass will decide that Barack Obama is not their guy -- that, to the surprise of one and all, Lee Mercer Jr. is to be the 2008 nominee after all.

That is the thinking behind a small but determined band of Mercer backers, some of whom have formed a 527 fundraising committee that has already run one $9,700 ad in the Chicago Tribune, and plans more in the weeks to come.

"Mercer's name must be put in nomination. His supporters must be allowed to make speeches on his behalf of his candidacy. There must be an honest roll call vote, not a symbolic one, so superdelegates can cast their votes honestly, for either candidate, as their judgment, conscience and democratic principles dictate."

For Eye Spy Community-Military Intelligence (All Three). :patriot:

1. OMFG.
Sometimes a DUzy slaps me so hard in the face I can feel my molars vibrating at A about high C.

This is one of those times.

13. If the Lee Mercer supporters don't get their way at the Denver convention,
they WILL be all up in your house with disease. With Jeb Bush -- as it clearly states on Lee Mercer's website.

Remember, he has "millions of doctor's degrees".

12. Just how "outside" is that chance?
Like maybe George Bush winning the Nobel Prize in Physics?
