Coming up any moment on CNN right now Hildebeast is trying to spin things in her speech about having the popular vote...

Soon as she is done I think Obama is on.

I love the smell of September in the morning. Once we got off at Richmond, walked up to the 'G, and there was no game on. Not one footballer in sight. But that cut grass smell, spring rain...it smelt like victory.

Delaying the inevitable. Great, she's going to be listening to lunatics writing into HillaryClinton.com (!!!!) (!) urging her to stay in the race.

I hope Obama knocks his speech out of the park to upstage her.

CNN had excerpts of it on the article talking about Obama's clinch, it sounds very impressive.

But doesn't she like have no way of catching up even if she stays on until the convention? The TV news today had her at roughly 200 votes to get a nomination and there aren't that many votes left to even cast.

I hate to volite Godwin's law, but she reminds me more and more of Hitler at the end of WW2.

MSNBC made note that the room they were in had no cell/blackberry service or TV monitors so that they wouldn't know that Obama had become the nominee.

She is living in her own little reality.

The delusional bitch is hanging on the hope that she can turn Obama's superdelegates to vote for her.

I'm really hoping he doesn't make her VP. It will make voting for him a really bitter pill to swallow.

Not to mention screeching like the harpy she is that she "won" the popular vote.

Which is complete horseshit. My balls aren't as fuzzy as that math.

She's just trying to make sure that all of her supporters will not vote for Obama. I used to think that the talk about her trying to deliberately sabotage Obama and ensure a Republican victory was a bit of a humourous exaggeration, but it seems more and more true. I do believe she is now trying to sabotage the Democrats in this election, not as an unintended side-effect of an acrimonious campaign but as a deliberate intention unless she gets the VP nod.

In effect, having failed to win the nomination, she now intends to effectively extort a VP appointment from the party by threatening to undermine them in the general election.
