'strategy' boasting'?? she said the basic fact that pledged is not what people were claiming and that they could be switched before denver. and what f'ing hypocrisy on the part of all the obama supporters who railed for months that she was deviously trying to steal the election! who's doing that now?
and the issue of delegates representing the voice of the people - what tripe. don't want to hear that yap out of obama supporters anymore - Hillary WON NV yet low and behold Obama 'stole' more delegates. Hmmmm....
If hillary can pull off the nomination by any means --- it's clearly fair and square now given the Obama strategy.
Swissfun -- the first thing you need to realize is that Obama supporters are composed of many people with different ideas.
The second thing you need to realize is that many Obama supporters, including me, objected to pledged delegates switching their votes. I argued that even though Clinton is a deceitful liar with no respect for the process or the will of the people, the delegates shouldn't fall to her level.
The third thing you need to understand is that Obama doesn't need these pledged delegates "switches". Hillary does.
So, complaining about two pledged delegates switching -- when Obama already has a 200 delegates lead? Get over yourself.
Obama doesn't need to either count or not count Michigan, he doesn't need to either count or not count the superdelegates, he doesn't need these few pledged delegates to switch or not switch.
This race isn't even a close one anymore. It's over. Get over it.
"she said the basic fact that pledged is not what people were claiming and that they could be switched before denver"
And Hillary is now on the short end of it without the ability to utter a peep of protest. People can decide for themselves if it was a smart thing to do.
Hillary tells everyone she's going to poach Obama's delegates only to have it done to her.
How sweet it is!
