Hillary Clinton Prepares to Go Nuclear
Oh… my… God! The Huffington post is reporting that the Clinton campaign is going to use…
(By the way, the nuclear option, apparently, is just pushing really hard to get the Florida and Michigan delegates seated.)
With at least 50 percent of the Democratic Party's 30-member Rules and Bylaws Committee committed to Clinton, her backers could — when the committee meets at the end of this month — try to ram through a decision to seat the disputed 210-member Florida and 156-member Michigan delegations. Such a decision would give Clinton an estimated 55 or more delegates than Obama, according to Clinton campaign operatives. The Obama campaign has declined to give an estimate.
I sure hope that Barack Obama doesn't detonate his Doomsday Device.
And, by that, I mean pull off an upset win in Indiana on Tuesday.

On Iran, the Democratic Party, or Bill ? Since the change she goes nuclear a lot !
I do agree that it is insane that republicans can "become democrat for a day" – vote in primaries to influence the outcome – and that there aren't penalties for them doing so – youd think that there would be rules or consequences to that kind of espionage – for lack of a better term – it's just wrong!
However, even if she was to get the delegates from michigan and florida seated with the results as they stood in the primaries, she will still be behind Obama by 12 delegates – it would be 1814.5 (obama) to 1802 (HRC) – although it would increase the obama needs to get the majority of delegates to 393 – which i guess would be her purpose in doing it – but she would still be behind.
Hilliary is a dirty cheat. Point blank. She can't win on her own merits, so moves the goalposts continuously. Hilliary – Quit. You're had your butt kicked. Deal with it.
I suppose the real question is, "Will the gloves come off before or after she goes nuclear?"
Oooo. If she picks up 55 more seats than Obama, she'll still be losing by 88. Awesome. Way to go nuclear over something that changes nothing.
I'm just waiting to see how she turns the death of her Derby horse into political hay.
I cannot believe we are still struggling to get this process figured out. How many elections are we gonna f*ck up, people? Or is it that our government intentionally leaves "aces" so the republicans can manipulate the outcome of the democratic primary and then laugh at us on talk radio.
Dang Cubby-I thought she was going to blow up Florida and Michigan, because if she can't have their delegates, NO ONE can…
