Okay, I imagine most of you have heard about Hill getting her way with having a roll call vote in eleven days in Denver at the Dem. Convention....with Obama's blessing...(hardy har har)...
I want to know if any of you think this is choreographed between him, her, and the dem party to gain more msm attention ect...
Or do you think she has something she is going to release about Obama in the next week or so...
Or do you think she has behind the scenes poll numbers (not that he has swell numbers now) that we do not know about yet...but Obama is worried about, so is some in the dem. party....and this is for real, a real knock down drag out political blood sport roll call?
I'll put the link down below after I post this.
Just curious what you all think...
Bill has been mighty quiet....

New Forum topic...Hill's Roll Call Vote
August 14, 2008 - 19:36 ET by bigtimerHere is the link for some who may not know the latest information about subject above....also in this link is the so-called negotiating about all of this roll-call vote since June...I say BS about that.
Being a political junkie for years....this could be so much fun....

I'll take my cue from you....
August 14, 2008 - 22:59 ET by BlondeYou are the one who is the resident expert on parliamentary rules, procedures, etc. in the Congress....and I'm sure you're spot-on as far as the conventions go as well.
So what is your prediction?
Will La Clinton hijack the proceedings?
As you say, we should have bought popcorn stock weeks ago (may do it anyway....there's a "tropical depression" off the DR....run, run for your life).
And Matthew....we need live chat for the conventions!
Great forum topic, thx.

How about it Blonde! BT amazes me with all she knows
August 14, 2008 - 23:15 ET by Dee Bunkabout that stuff. I give her so much credit for really being informed. I've tried watching C-Span a few different times but I can't stay interested. I think BT knows more about individual political people than anyone I know. She seems to know every congressman and Senator. It's great.
B... I'm no expert on any
August 14, 2008 - 23:21 ET by bigtimerB...
I'm no expert on any parliamentary rules ect...I just post what I know about, and still get that wrong at times.
I just wondered what other people thought, do they think she has something yet to come out about him, and she may be black-mailing him or is this just all in conjunction with each other for a big msm build up....does she think she has enough delegates, super delegates to turn and support her, or does she just want to make a point and stick it to him to show how close she came...ect...or God forbid...she actually wins the nomination at the convention...
I would die laughing...just watching the likes of Matthews/Olbie ect.
Btw...I don't know if anybody else heard about Rev. Wright having a book coming out in Oct. that isn't so nice to Obama....he denies this, a spokesman came out yesterday and said he is still in HIS Motherland (Africa) and is going to be doing his work there...blah blah blah...I say if that is his Motherland...stay there....but send the book.

Wow that is juicy BT - Rev wright book dissing Obama?
August 14, 2008 - 23:51 ET by Dee BunkIf that turns out to be true - it will be a great comparison to the Mclellan book and how the media treats them. McClellan was an incompetent boob that they suddenly loved. Somehow I doubt they'll fall in love with Wright.
Yeah Dee...this is the
August 14, 2008 - 23:57 ET by bigtimerYeah Dee...this is the second time I have heard of him writing this book, that supposedly Obama won't like, last time was months ago now...so who now...might be all BS...but then again if it wasn't why are they bringing this up...again?
Sure would be delicious though...just watching the msm go into frantic spin mode....those men in little white coats would have to be at the ready a month earlier than they thought they were going to be called for stand-by.

Hill Obama's VP?
August 14, 2008 - 19:55 ET by bigtimerI knew I forgot to mention one other option in the above forum topic...
Or do you think she is going to be named his VP at the convention?
....for whatever reasons that we could all imagine....lol.

BT - I'm clueless on what will happen
August 14, 2008 - 22:42 ET by Dee BunkLibs are too devious and hard to figure out. I love how you are always on top of all of it though. I had not heard about this latest agreement. Very interesting indeed.
Dee... Thanks for the
August 14, 2008 - 23:04 ET by bigtimerDee...
Thanks for the reply....
I think she has something up her sleeve...she has never quit...like a biting sow...she is going to get VP slot or think she has enough delegates to make a fool of him and remind the dem party of what idiots they are.
No matter what it is going to be fun....
...negotiating since June according to Obama's statement from his spokesman...yeah right...my arse.
....the msm has got to be worried...

The Clintons
August 15, 2008 - 11:53 ET by LionKingThe Clintons are the most power hungry people I have ever personally witnessed. To think that they are going to disappear quietly is unrealistic.
I do not think Hillary will settle for VP. I truly believe that she has something planned prior to or at least during the convention. She may try and wrangle those Florida and Michigan delegates to her cause.
[If McCain and the PUBs are smart, they will watch this convention very closely and LEARN. ]
I really don't know...
August 15, 2008 - 12:08 ET by BlondeI think Hillary is going to make Barak pay the butcher's bill for supplanting that which was rightfully hers (ouch, that hurt to type!).
The one thing I know for a fact is that the Hillary camp is not shutting up and going quietly. Her surrogates are still on the warpath. Last week it was "well, if Edwards had dropped out when he should have (**cough, cough**), Hillary would have had the nomination".
This morning, Geraldine Ferraro was on Fox demanding that Obama & the DNC recognize the "history" of HRC's campaign (first woman, riiiiiighht). I think there's still alot of anger there with the Clintonites. And this PUMA group that's been making the rounds, each of them extremely anti-Obama...what's up with that?
Little B. Hussein would be absolutely crazy to put Hillary in any position at this point, how would you like to CONTINUE to have her overshadow every little thing that is done? That and Bad Bill, or course....running his mouth about everything if HRC had an official administration post.
As for the back story on all this....who knows? I think the Clintons are far more egotistical than even that twit Silky....and suspect their big money backers decided to switch ponies (sorry!) mid-race to someone they felt they could control.
Bottom line, I suspect both Barry & the DNC will give Her Highness & the Prince Consort their ten minutes in the sun, then give them the big hook. Outa here!
Of course, with the Clintons, one just never knows. They're the masters of political dirty tricks, so we shall just have to wait & see.
Either way, it's going to be interesting. Pass the popcorn.
