Thanks, HC

Well, the reason i've been looking so cocky in my yellow pantsuits these past few weeks is because i've been on the threshold of seeing all of my hard work come to fruition. As you all know, i have a 35 year history in "bimbo management." And in the past several days, you've all been able to benefit from my significant achievements in that area. Working closely with the Canadian Ministry of Bimbo, i was able to carefully orchestrate a sequence of events and accusations to prove what a "one speech wonder" my opponent really is. Having said that, i would be honored to have him as my Vice President, because while he has no qualifications to be President himself, he's eminently qualified to be one heartbeat away from the Oval Office as long as that heartbeat is mine.

I fucked up that last line. Can we have a do-over?

1. Senator Obama purchased his family's home with their money and credit, so Rezko did not "assist him in financing". Try playing in the realm of facts for a change, MizJ.

2. Billary, I would like to know the details of your Dubai quid pro quo that stands to net you $20 million in a lump sum when the deed is closed, said, and done.

3. Billary, I would like to know the details of the ~$1 million in funding from you corrupt friend and long-time political financier Norman Tsu that was donated to your current presidential campaign. As you know Mr. Rezko didn't donate any money to Obama's presidential campaign, although he was a political donor earlier in his career. Wasn't your friend, Mr. Tsu, already convicted?

4. Hillary why have you not released your past tax returns? At a minimum 2006 taxes have long been completed and file so what is the hold-up there. Other candidates have long since released; a sign that they will be as honest and efficient while working in the White House for the people. It is clear that there is something to hide there but you must do what you need to to win in your style. Exactly how long does it take a Clinton to make a photocopy of tax returns and should we expect the same mind-boggling delays and shadowy action from yet another Clinton administration?

5. You are not vetted Hillary and your husbands activities since the White House are held suspect by your own lack of transparency and intentional stalling. Will you and your co-candidate release the Bill Clinton Library donor list (probably with names like Rezko and Tsu on them) and your papers documenting your "actions" as First Lady (afterall the fulcrum of your ready-on-day-one claim is experience via osmosis while planning menus for state dinners and selecting Christmas decorations/themes) anytime this decade?

There's no doubt in my mind that the tax returns we eventually see with not be the tax returns we would see today if they were released. Not a doubt in my mind.

You and I are of the same mind. Why clamor for them when the fix will be complete?

Question for Obama: As the rep from the district that was awarded monies to Rezko to rehab those buildings, did you ever confront him about the fact that nothing was being done? Did you ask him where all the money was going to? Why would you allow this man, whose reputation was already sullied, to assist you in financing your home? What was that all about? You speak so much about your time as a community worker that it must have been pretty evident that nothing was being accomplished for the poor of those neighborhoods. How are we to interpret that lack of judgment for someone wishing to be president?

And is it true Mr. Obama that the fact that you paid such a large amount of money in such a depressed area of Chicago actually brought attention to the plight of the other less fortunate residents already in that area? And also did it help to bring much needed resources to an area that had been largely ignored. Did you create an anchor property that helped keep the neighborhood intact when developers were pushing the "traditional" community members out of the only homes they had known? In actuality .... didn't you do what they say most blacks will not do when they gain financial success .... Didn't you return to the "Hood"? How do we interpret the record of community sacrifice that you have negotiated in a City full of many political "types".

The phone rings at the Obama household at 3 a.m. and it is Hillary on the line.

"Okay, so you won. Can I be your vice presidential running mate?

"You know the slash and burn, hack-type politics expected of the No. 2 person comes naturally to me."

Obama: "Hillary, I said you should believe in hope, not miracles.

"No thanks, no way."

Can someone explain how a lead is maintained when someone in this case Hillary won three states.

And Ohio and Texas are big states.

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 09:12 PM on 03/05/2008

Sure, I'd be happy to tell you:

This is a delegate race, so if she had won these "big" states by big enough margins, she would now have the lead. But she didn't. He's was ahead by 150 or so delegates. She netted 10 (probably fewer) last night. So he's now STILL ahead in delegates; her big "win" brought his lead down by fewer than 10 delegates. In fact, she "won" Texas by 4 points (or was it 3?), but he actually got more delegates out of Texas. He's also still ahead in the popular vote, just in case you were wondering. He's also ahead in number of states won, just in case you were wondering that too. These are not winner take all primaries, so it may look like she's doing very well by "winning" states, but he has an enormous amount of support there too, which is why she's not really eating away at his lead.

Let me translate this for you nazirmo.

The Dem primary process if very quirky, and all of those quirks are working out in Obama's favor. That is why he could lose a huge state like Texas, and still get more pledged delegates... which are supposed to represent the will of the people. Laughable.

Then you have caucuses. These "elections" allow strange things to happen, like Obama winning the Washington State delegate count by a significant margin, despite winning an actually primary by only 3%. Again, the will of the people are not reflected in the delegate count.

He is still ahead in the popular vote, but not by a significant margin. It shirnks even more when you add FL into the mix (but shhhh, Obama people don't like to think about FL. It is only a big, important state that happens to favor Hillary).

It is true that Obama is ahead in states won, but this is misleading. If this was a "winner take all" primary, Hillary would be ahead right now by a significant margin. If FL and MI were added into a winner take all system, she would have it basically sewn up by now.

Yes SHE Can... SHE is doing it!

Well, let's use a sports analogy (though i bristle at the notion). One team hits home run after home run after home run, scoring point after point after point. Over a dozen times. Then, the other team hits three home runs in row, chalking up a few points themselves. Should they then win the game because their home runs were the most recent?

It's a numbers game. Numbers aren't partisan.

Question for Obama : What about Rezko connection and just how clean are you on it because your
million dollar mansion has some connection to him or am I not well informed ?

    Favorite    Flag as abusive Posted 09:11 PM on 03/05/2008

Not ill informed, just someone with an agenda--You want to look at sleezy connections and ill gotten gains? Where are the Clintons' tax returns. Did you know that bill was an intermediary on behalf of a Canadian nuclear power company with the president of Kazakhstan, a brutal dictator guy, and that he endorsed this guy to be president? Ever heard of something called Whitewater? Do you know that the Clintons had to return furniture to the White House when they left? Do you know what "Red Herring" means? Did you know that Obama admits that it was a rookie mistake to connect with that dirtbag? Do you know what humility means? Has Hillary ever admitted anything wrong? Ever? Name one time.

Okay, well, maybe you *are* ill informed...

And I suspect we will hear soon the details about that Canadian memo and Bills "blonde" friend in the Canadian dept of commerce. Please ... we need all the information. If she does not release the tax records and the WH journals then she is the same lying power hungry scumbag that her husband is.

Questions for Clinton:

What about the $17 million Clinton Fraud trial? The Clintons have tried to dismiss the case, but the California Supreme Court, in 2004, upheld a lower-court decision to deny the motion. Why has the media largely ignored this case when the Clintons are directly involved not merely connected to someone in the midst of trial?

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=56868

Why has Clinton failed to return $170,000 in donations from IPA when at least 103 women complained of sexual harassment in what the EEOC has called the worst case it has ever seen? Other politicians have returned the funds.

Excellent questions. And i think you should send them to all major media outlets and insist they be answered. I really do. Let's give the media the opportunity to prove how "unbiased" they really are ....

I'm sorry I don't have a video camera. I hope you will accept this "press release" in light of my current technological deficit.

"Chrissie, thank you for inviting me. I am delighted to answer your questions regarding my two abscences during discussions on Afghanistan in the Foreign Relations committee.

On January 31 of this year, while there was a presentation in the committee on possible approaches to the transition in Afghanistan from our control to international control of military forces, I was unable to attend because the meeting conflicted with one of the national debates being held between myself and my rival candidates. Although I would have liked to reschedule that debate to accomodate the no-doubt excellent presentation I missed in committee, I was unable to convince the national media to reschedule.

Back in September of 2006, the 21st to be precise, if you will recall, was in the middle of mid-term elections in which we Democrats retook control of the Senate for the first time since President Bush took office. Although I cannot recall exactly what committee business I may have missed on that day -- please refresh my memory if you can -- I am fairly certain that I weighed its importance against the importance of helping our Democratic friend Jim Webb in his campaign bid to win his Senate seat against his Republican opponent. Of course, I was campaigning for Jim on that day, and although there is no way to tell if I was actually able to help, he did win his Senate seat and helped to give control to the Democrats.

Shall we start looking into the meetings that Ms. Clinton has missed and ask her the same questions?"

Thank you for this opportunity, Christie!!! I do hope you will honestly report on the facts tomorrow and not go for the low road.

Message to the DNC and to who ever else it may concern; if HC is nominated I won't be voting Democrat in the General.

Hint: September 21, 2006, campaigning for Jim Webb's Senate seat in Virginia.

Say, who schedules those pesky mid-term elections, anyway?
