Reid cryptically predicts Dems will avoid

convention fight.

With a "serene and mysterious smile on his face," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid predicted the Democratic primary would be resolved before the party gathers for its national convention in Denver this August.

And I thought all this time it was just a chiat eating grin.


Reid cryptically predicts Dems will avoid cat fight between the "witch and the beta male"

the Democrat Party Machine can up with "Super Delegates" after the McGovern Debacle to keep the Sheeple from every screwing up an Election Again

The DNC can Appoint 100,000 Super D's if need be to get the result they want ... there are no rules limiting the ## of SD's ..... and there is nothing B Hussian O or Shillary can do about it ........... you democrats think your vote counts ....

The "theory" I heard today was that all the SD's were going to have a mini convention, prior to the soon to be called Denver Debacle or Mile-High Melee, to select the nominee.

If the DNC allows this to happen and Hillary gets nominated then every person who voted for Obama should call for heads on platters. Everyone who disagrees with the 2 party system should hope that this comes to pass because the DNC would and should (hopefully I won't underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups) lose any credibility after all these years of crying "VOTER FRAUD!" pot meet black

Exactly what I've been saying for months.

Much to the chagrin of the Republitard s on this site...

All predictions of a Democratic implosion are wasted dreams.


So sorry.


As you were.

Gotta disagree with you. I think an implosion is inevitable at this point. This race has divided two key constituencies, blacks and hispanics. If Obama wins, the hispanics are gone. If Hillary wins the blacks are gone, and with them most of the new-found youth vote. So if the SDs support Clinton, the election is over. If they support Obama they've got a chance. But either way, an implosion is on the way.

Then we agree to disagree.

While it is as stupid as it can be today...this isn't going to last long.

Hillary's facing mounting criticism every day as most of the party is recognizing she's putting her own impossible dreams ahead of the party. Even though they've been good sports now...it isn't going to last much longer.

She's hanging on by a thin thread...and unless she can convince the Democratic leadership that she can win Pennsylvania by 75% (Which she won't)...it's just her being the dumbass. All by herself.

...Vice President Richardson should blunt that, the former, right? And Vice President Harold Ford will take care of the latter?

Those would be interesting combinations that could work.
