Clinton may take delegate fight to convention

BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton says she is willing to take her fight to seat Florida and Michigan delegates to the convention if the two states want to go that far. In an interview with The Associated Press, Clinton was asked whether she would support the states if they continue the fight.
The presidential candidate said Wednesday, "Yes I will. I will, because I feel very strongly about this."

Clinton is calling for delegates from both states to be seated at the convention based on the primaries. Both states were stripped of their delegates because they voted early, violating national party rules. Clinton won both states; Barack Obama's name wasn't on the Michigan ballot.

The DNC's rules committee will hear an appeal on May 31.

1. Great news!

Glad to hear Hillary won't give up her fight. She has no reason to. Obama will not win 2025 pledged delegates before the convention.

[Texas Hill Country]

3. yep... this is important for the party, not just for her.

[wileedog]

13. Yeah the Republican Party

Why are we going to shoot ourselves in the foot for another 3 MONTHS for this bullshit?

McCain is laughing his ass off.

[Joe the Revelator]

7. You know if she were to somehow wrestle this away at the convention, she won't be able to win either

[msallied]

8. Pssst: NJSecularist isn't a Democrat.

He doesn't care.

[haymakeragain]

20. No shit.

Question is, what is heshe?

[Cha]

30. Trouble maker from the get go..thought

he had everyone bamboozled like hilary.

We were on to his shit quicker than hilary thought she was going to be the candidate.


Poor poor clueless, hilary.

[haymakeragain]

18. Great news if you're a cheater.

You guys are more rovian by the minute. Nothing matters but what you want.

You can actually say that they should seat the Michigan delegates even though Obama wasn't on the ballot, with a straight face? PUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUULEASE

quit cheating and get out of the way. Your helping McSame every minute you drag this bullshit loser effort on.

[JackORoses]

29. you are trash. Why not just be honest about your intentions NJRepuke?

[nvme]

31. He may not get the pledged delegates but

He is going to hit 2025 long before Hillary. He will have the supers and the nomination by June 15. As much as may be said to the contrary that will be the case. Hillary will most likely get the nod for VP but she probably wont accept it at will have a say in who will be The Vice president. Any moves are her campaigns party will ultimately cause capital damage to Party. If she does that she won't be elected to be dog catcher.

[damntexdem]

39. Great news for McCain, not for Democrats.

If she refuses a compromise at the Rules Committee, the SDs need to show her to the door.

[Joe the Revelator]

2. Thanks Hillary! You've got a knife to the neck of the party!

[ladjf]

4. Of course. She will never end the campaign voluntarily.

[TexasObserver]

5. This is why she is disqualified from being on the ticket.

She's a snake and needs to be put out of this garden of eden.

[Texas Hill Country]

10. worst metaphor ever.

[msallied]

6. She is a despicable and repugnant human being.

[Texas Hill Country]

11. funny, i find that statement repugnant.

[msallied]

21. Sorry, but it's true.

From her repugnant actions here to refusing to pay vendors for their goods and services while she leeches money from her supporters to pay back loans she made to herself from her own personal fortune, to her implied racism and outright lying--she's scum to me.

[Shakespeare]

35. And I find you repugnant. Watch the circle go round and round.... n/t

[Colobo]

12. Sadly, she is.

[kid a]

9. woo hoo - she digs deeper and deeper.

[Overseas]

14. Glad you said she MAY take it there -- that's a big IF

A bunch of others have jumped on making it an inflammatory headline. But it is just a big PERHAPS.

BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton says she is willing to take her fight to seat Florida and Michigan delegates to the convention if the two states want to go that far.

[americanstranger]

15. Ahh, fuck this.

I've been trying to be gracious and nice and not offend Clinton supporters and all that.

But I'm sick of reading about this underhanded, double-dealing, sneaky bullshit from Clinton.

She doesn't want party unity. She wants quite the opposite, from the look of things.

Get out of the way, Hilly. We have an election to win, and you are not helping.

Oh and that VP thing? Go check with McCain, maybe he needs a VP. You've lost any claim to any position on this ticket.

- as

[Bullet1987]

16. The SDs will not let this go to the Convention...bank on it

If they do, then the system of SDs needs to be scrapped after this election season. Do your fucking jobs people...

[tridim]

19. No they wont, but I think she'll go anyway

She just doesn't care now that she's no longer a Democrat.

[izzie]

17. After all this, every one will just love to vote for her.

A women with no class at all. She is going to win if it kills every one to do it.

[NJSecularist]

23. The only people with no class are the DUbamas who have threatened to blackmail her if she stays in.

And other assorted threats they have lobbed her way.

[tridim]

25. I think you're confused as to who is blackmailing who.

Hillary is the threat, not the people who voted for the Democratic nominee.

[harun]

24. She doesn't care about votes at this point, she just wants to tank Obama (n/t)

[izzie]

41. One point, this is what she knows and how she has lived.

It is going to be hard to keep out any one with this type thinking. Most people in this country are used to it. Many seem to feel it is normal. I think I would like to think that also, if I did not see the rest of the world leaving the US behind as it gets on with new things and ways to live. To get to another point I think about. Just who thinks that the poorer white people of the Appalachian Mts. will vote for Hillery or Obama in Nov? They are going to vote for the white man who was in the service so long.

[doublethink]

22. I think Rachel Maddow may be right on this one ....

[Jack Bone]

27. I concur

thanx for the video link!

[doublethink]

34. Your quite welcome .......

I really think Barack Obama should put Rachel Maddow on the payroll soon come what may. Obama needs to stick to his guns on this and give no quarter to Hillary. None. Peace.

[TexasLady]

36. I am hearing a womwomwomwom on MSNBC all the time

a low pitched awful sound. I thought it was my local area cable, till I just heard it again on youtube.

[Aloha Spirit]

26. ....

[ecstatic]

28. what a psychotic loser nt

[NotThisTime]

32. What an utter surprise...

[blues90]

33. I don't see the problem.

This is politics! To blame Hillary for splitting the party is insane, she does have people who do support her like it or not.

So to say as has been said for months now for her to just drop out is to say to hell with the people who support her.

I don't call that fair just because it is numbers who say she can't win. She has every right to stay in the race.

If it were Obama who was behind it would be the same damn thing.

Florida was offered a paid for re-vote by NY mayor and others yet Obama does not want this.

One thing that is really insane is to say Hillary is splitting the party , no, you can say the people who support her and the people who support Obama are splitting the party but that's all that can be said in all fairness.

personally I don't feel any of the three candidates have the path out of the mess we are in. None will get the fuel prices lowered or the jobs back or fight against the corporations who control everything or find the bush admin guilty of high crimes.

That is the main beef I have , it just gets swept under some rug and just move on no matter who has been beaten into the dirt because of the last 7 1/2 years.

This country has a way of pushing dirt in the hole to bury the past as always. Only those who survive matter never those who did not for whatever reason.

[malik flavors]

37. In all honesty, if it were Obama in her position I would want him to concede.

But I realize I'm not as nutty as a lot of people, especially some of the Hillary supporters. Both candidates having nutty suporters, but Hillary's seem to be the extreme. It's funny becasue they always used to call Obama the cult leaders, but these days Hillary's supporters are by far the bigger kool-aid drinkers.

FYI: This is an objective opinion. I support Obama, but like I said, I'm not as caught up in all of this as a lot of you are. Believe it or not, but the Hillary supporters have surpassed Obama's in insanity. I mean, she lost the pledge delegates. The rules say pledge delegates elect. So, why shouldn't she get out? If Obama were in her position I'd wonder why he isn't getting out. This is ridiculous and why anyone would want this to go to the convention is beyond me. The Hillary supporters have lost their minds if they want this to go till August. They both have the same policies for Pete's sake. Does it really matter which one puts them into effect? People need to get over these obessions and wake the hell up.

[blues90]

40. I think both candidates supporters are over the edge.

[bigwillq]

38. The SDs

will stop this before it happens.

Don't worry.
