Two Losers To Tell Hillary To Quit

Posted by: Curt @ 4:39 pm in The Clintons | 0 views

I find it curious that The Scotsman broke this story but hey, the story itself isn’t surprising:

Falling poll numbers and a string of high-profile blunders have convinced party elders that she must now bow out of the primary race.

Former president Carter and former vice-president Gore have already held high-level discussions about delivering the message that she must stand down for the good of the Democrats.

“They’re in discussions,” a source close to Carter told Scotland on Sunday. “Carter has been talking to Gore. They will act, possibly together, or in sequence.”…

A number of options are being considered by the higher echelons of the Democrats, but they fall roughly into two categories. One is for Carter and Gore to go to Clinton privately and ask her to step down. The other is for both men to appear in public and endorse Obama – a move which would see a majority of superdelegates go with them.

The campaign to force Clinton to make an early exit is being masterminded in Congress, home to the most influential of the superdelegates.

This is whats its come down to in the Democrat bourgeois version of a primary in which only the chosen few get to choose who the nominee will be. A President who served one term and couldn’t win a second, and a VP who lost a Presidential run, are now the crème de la crème of those who will crown the prince…or princess.

Amazing. To bolster the case for the behind the scenes shenanigans look here.

I’m betting Hillary stays in it till the fat lady sings tho.

“Falling poll numbers and a string of high-profile blunders…” That sounds more like Barack Obama than Hillary Clinton! Maybe Gore and Carter should get together and ask him to bow out instead? Of course Dean and all the other radicals would scream bloody-murder, so they won’t.

Anyone think Hillary Clinton is going to listen to two losers like Gore and Carter?

Carter’s socializing with terrorists and Gore’s busy spreading fear of GW, how is it that they are the chosen ones to level with Hillary? Is it because their credibility is held in high esteem within the dem party and so the Clintons will naturally accept their words of wisdom? Sheesh.

Ha! Clinton and Obama both have had their share of blunders. No way is Hillary bowing out.

Carter should retire, and collect his pension. Gore should to, Likely, now is embarrassed for his choice in a Vice Presidential running partner. Where Gore picked Lieberman is telling of what poor Democratic principles were in background during this time. Gore probably understood where he was politically when he gave up the election. Lieberman likely ditched the Democratic Party back then, and only manipulated the Democrats to get were he is now.

Its way too obvious to stand next to McCain and whisper in his ears, hey that is supposed to be Sunni or Shia. Everyone has a good laugh when it’s brought up, but how that gaffe is something irrelevant compared to Hillary’s Bosnia sniper fire. Sheesh.

For either one, Gore or Carter, are not the true leadership of what is the Democratic Party. Slowly Hillary is the clear front runner. Oh, and that sniper fire is something the Media clearly wants to fade. For Hillary has a huge debatable chunk of Mainstream Media irresponsible reporting on domestic crime resulting from drive by sniper fire that pales in comparison to alot of any war. Mainstream Media know it and are trying to bury it because they look like fools.

Sore looser Gore is telling someone to quit when there’s still the possibility of cheating? Hmmmm. My guess is that Obie Bomb Kaboomie is more disposed to Al’s carbon-offset trade federation machinations than is Hillarity, …no?

I got that “jedi” photo from the obama website on which it may or may not remain, which is why I didn’t just use their URL. But, for reference, here it is.

So, I guess Obama is just more of a crook after Gore’s heart, figuratively speaking, than is Clinton. I.e., Barack has no values, Muslim or Christian or otherwise. He’s out for himself, and he’ll use whatever means he can to gratify his ego and his lust for power. And, evidently, Gore seems to think he’s better at what he does than is Clinton. Now THAT’s saying something!

Can you say “Psychopath?”

See, also, this funny but a little too close to home (for him) video for why the Jedi pic above is funny…

Carter, Gore. Definitely a winning combination.

Carter, a failed president. Meeting with terrorist organizations and their state sponsors, so as to “have a line of communication.” No wonder more than half his administration endorsed GW Bush for president in 2000, and again in his re-election in 2004.

Gore, “scientist” and “creator.” The self-proclaimed creator of the Internet, Web 2.0, carbon offsets, etc. The “voice in the wilderness” warning us all about global warming. Forget the notion that it’s a giant pyramid scheme to enrich himself and the lack of solid, empirical scientific fact.

Time for more laughter.

I swear this stuff just makes me grin. And today I needed some bas relief! Would I love to be a fly on da wall if Gore wanders in to tell HRC to back off!

Now how is the king of “I was robbed!” planning to reconcile Hillary’s acquiescence to BHO with FL/MI voters being left out in the “popular vote” cold? And how will those delegate votes be allocated? Those votes which, despite the breaking of rules by both the candidates and DNC primary honchos, primarily belong to HRC? Yeah, yeah. BHO wasn’t on the ballot. But I’m pretty darned sure every primary voter knew he was in the running. What, no “write in” slot??

Ask Hillary to back down and to ignore FL/MI HRC voters, and Gore is image screwed… a complete antithesis of his pious, sore-loser persona, begging for faulty ballots to be counted in 2000. What fun!

And how depressing that if the DNC can’t even cleanly pick a candidate, what makes anyone think they’ll be any better at running the country? Paralyzed by PC rules, they are. Talk about a mentality rich in cluster f*#ks and quagmires…

But seriously, either of of these DNC types can end up being my POTUS in 2009. And frankly, I think it unwise to ask her to back out. It is only her presence that allows for more public vetting of BHO’s sketchy past. And the party deserves to know as much as possible before handing him the crown at the convention. Hang, not only the DNC party, but to the entire country who may end up with BHO at the WH helm.

And Reid… “things are being done”…. OMG! Sounds like DNC “Godfather” fer heavens sake!

But this one really gets me…

“Michigan and Florida wouldn’t play by the rules,” Reid said. “They’re not my rules. They’re not the caucus’ rules. They’re DNC rules. They broke the rules.”

So now he’s big on election rules?? Uh, Mr. Reid… when ballots are not properly filled out, they don’t count. That’s the election rules in every state, as they should be. And if a voter can’t figure out how to punch out a chad completely, how well do you think they understand the issues for which they vote? Again, such fun…. this disenfranchisement of voters after their escapades in 2000.

Winners never quit, quitters never win. Losers who don’t quit are the heart and soul of the Democratic Party.
