Very interesting

not really, its meaningless for the dems as they didn't do any campaining there, so its really pretty arbitrary. any conclusions drawn from it are really hypothetical.

Nope, not so fast -

I was right, about those delegates. Look here -

Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH, Clinton campaign coordinator), was just on Faux Noise not one hour ago, saying the same thing as Hillary did yesterday, about the "delegates in Florida and Michigan".

That little shrew is gonna sue for those delegates, you watch!

So look - let me tell you how I feel about that -

Goddamit, she is just like Bush. She's gonna get her way over the strenuous objections of the American People!!!

No way am I voting for her!

I don't want four more years of that kind of stupidity!!!

That's exactly what pisses me off about Clownie over there, he does the exact same thing. He's doing it right now, even as we speak. He's even got three different things going that way, all at the same time!!!

I'm telling you people, PLEASE wake up - that man there, Bush, is a menace to the People of the United States, and Hillary is the exact same way!!!

This is not the way politics is supposed to work in this country!!!

It's a government of, by, and for, the People!!!

Jesus H Christ - imagine that - yesterday, HIllary Clinton promised not to compaign in Florida, and today, she wants to sue for the delegates that she didn't campaign for!!!

No friggin way am I gonna support crap like that. No way.

That, would be "politics as usual", and I for one, am fed up with that crap.

Down with Hillary!

ok no offense, but you're rants are getting wicked annoying. you're passionate and clearly have a message to get out there, which i appreciate, but you don't need to repeat this same stuff over and over in every post you make. the term "broken record" comes to mind. just thought you should know.

i couldn't find anything saying clinton was going to sue. i don't even think thats possible. it looks like shes pushing to have the delegates included, but considering they weren't able to campaign there, obama would have an argument there if that happened. either way, its one state. it still doesn't mean anything till after tuesday.

Faux doesn't have the transcript on their web site yet, but I'm sure it'll be there shortly.

It was Stephanie Tubbs Jones, and I'm pretty sure, she was even on Hannity's show yesterday saying the same thing. Or it mighta been the post-debate commentary, with Hannity as commentator, I dunno, it went by kinda fast - but check the Faux transcript, I'm sure it'll be in there.

The euphemism (the "spin") was, "we're going to fight, to make sure the people of Florida and Michigan get a voice in this election."

What else could that possibly mean?

She's going to "fight" - well, who's she fighting? It's the DNC, right? They're the ones who don't want the delegates to count -

The "people have a voice"? What the heck is that? That's spin, if ever I heard it. What she's telling me, is that they want those delegates to count. What else could she possibly be saying?

Dude, it's gonna be a very close count. Every last delegate, is gonna matter. Hillary, here, is telling you "up front" that she's gonna fight like a cornered weasel, to get what she wants.

I dunno - do you see it some other way?

Fair enough.

Nah, you know, I've been surveying the field here, and I mean, I think people have their eyes open at this point, and those who don't, are on their way to doing so.

And I mean, that means, my job is done.

See - how this works for me, is, that whenever I hear someone spinning an event, I'm gonna spin it right back into its proper framework.

So, you know, I'm like the old lady in that movie "Airport", right? When the two black guys are sittin' next to the white folks, and they're talking in Ebonics or somethin' and the white folks are lookin' at each other dumbfounded, like, "huh" - and so the old lady leans over and says, "excuse me, I speak Jive, may I be of assistance?"

Right? My job, is to translate things "back into English" for you guys!

(yuk yuk - you know, hardy har har, right? )

But I mean, you know, I hear "war on terror", and "pipe dream" comes out of my mouth.

I hear, "I will veto any pork that comes my way", and what comes out of my mouth is, "where were you six years ago, you miserable f...." -

And, I hear, "we will fight to give the People a voice", and what comes out of my mouth is, "she's gonna sue for the delegates".

You know, I can't account for it, it's just this "gift" I have, right? It's like, when I hear a piece of spin, my "mental model" immediately adjusts it to compensate for the person doing the spinning. It's a "skill", you know - not everyone can do that.
