Hillary and Obama are coming to town tonight. Good political theater but hardly anything else other than the opportunity for the Democratic Party to rend itself completely in two and allow the Republican nominee to win in November. I’ve seen polls that indicate that a majority of Obama supporters will not vote for Hillary if she is the nominee and that more than 40% of Hillary supporters would return the favor. The Obamanians (Obamaniacs?) are particularly concerned that Hillary and the Clintonians will pull some kind of shenanigan at the Convention through the “Super” Delegates or otherwise and end up with the nomination. If that happens, there may be mutiny in the Democratic ranks. This could end up being on of the biggest tragedies of our time as I believe that this Country can not survive as a country I want to live in if it is subjected to another 8 years of Republican reign. McCain already has had his lips surgically attached to Bush’s ass and if he is not the nominee because of this lobbyist/mistress story in the New York Times then Huckabee might be our Pastor in Chief. Heaven forbid! (and I mean that in the most literal sense).

It is imperative that you put your differences behind you after the convention and support the Democratic nominee. The stakes are too high not to do so.
I plan to vote for Hillary in the primary. I will do this because I know her personally and have worked with her in a business and legal setting in a prior life. I know she is extremely intelligent, aggressive, personable and more than competent to be president (particularly with the abysmal standards being set by the present occupant). She couldn’t pick me out of a line up as her life has been relatively full the last few years but I would be proud to vote for her for president. I would also be proud to vote for Obama. He seems to have the charisma and the ability to motivate and unify the country and I could certainly live with that.
I want the Democratic Convention to be a model of democracy and harmony but even if the Super Delegates lock the regular delegates out of the auditorium, strip them naked and paint them purple and then play “Rock, Paper, Scissors” and nominate Scooby Doo as the Democratic nominee, I am going to have a Scooby Doo bumper sticker and yard sign and give the maximum amount possible to his campaign. It’s that important to get the Repugs out.
Scooby snacks for everyone.

Why have a primary then? Why even give the people a chance to voice their opinion? Let’s just continue to anoint the same fucking two families and they can inter-marry and we can anoint their retarded offspring to be president as well.
If the D(d)emocratic party is going to subvert the will of the people just like the Repubs. did in 2000, then who wants to be a member of that party? A leader of this party that would intentionally subvert the will of the people has no principles other than maintaining power. And what principles SHE reputedly has would go right out the oval office window for the sake of maintaining that power.
This is a goddamn democracy but if you want to live in an oligarchy by the few and for the few, then lets all support the Queen come November!
A leader “of the people” who subverts the will of said people deserves no support. I’m moving to Pakistan.
Right on, my anonymous friend!
People should read this.
