Subject: The better poker player
This is going to be decided by the party insiders.
I love predictions. You know what else I
like?
Predictions with a cash penalty if you're wrong.
I makes for much more accurate predictions.
Hillary needs about 180 of the final 200.
Yesterday, Obama conceded delegates to meet Hillary
halfway.
He didn't have to.
According to Chuck Todd, he had the votes for
a 50-50 split(1).
He also urged his supporters not to protest.
He comes across as classy, willing to unite.
I can understand how you'd see it that way.
If she can't catch him, why not give her all
the delegates?
Why fight if the game is already over?
Why not kiss and make up?
Hillary authorized Ickes to make a very angry denunciation of the Rules committee decision(2).
That sounds like some pretty good mind-reading,
there.
Hell, you even have the added benefit that you
could be right.
Or, she could've told him, "Keep
your cool and never surrender."
Her supporters got thrown out in the end for interrupting the meeting, chanting "Denver!".
I heard the chants, didn't know they got thrown
out.
Tell me, are demonstrations always wrong?
She comes across as crass, unwilling to compromise.
I can understand how you'd see it that way.
All this political theater played out before the
party insiders.
Who is really the better poker player?
I guess that depends on who wins, and if the game
was rigged.
If they really give the
undecided vote to Obama,
(which sounds like a crime) we may never know
who the better poker player was.
Hillary started January with a 100 chip lead.
She's now losing by 200. Who's really the better
poker player?
Matt
I guess that depends on who wins, and if the game
was rigged.
Dude, when the last time you had your blood pressure
checked?
And remember, you have the option of winning
with grace.
P.S. Your media argument is horseshit because
IT'S A GOOD THING FOR THE MEDIA
TO LIKE YOUR CANDIDATE. Besides, if the media
was such a detriment to her campaign
that it alone cost her the primary against a
one-term nobody senator, SHE HAS NO CHANCE
OF BEATING McCAIN.
Thanks for the all caps.

Are you saying the media will continue their Obama lovefest after Hillary's
gone?
Good thing you're not a gambling man.
