It's not over yet!

The media and everyone is rushing to declare obama the DNC candidate.  obama is only the winner IF you count the "superdelegates" who have pledged to vote for him.  Neither  obama nor hillary has enough elected delegates from the popular vote to hit the 2118 to seal the nomination.  obama has 1750 and hillary has 1624.5.

You may have not heard that hillary still hasn't conceded yet.  Why?  She could still swing superdelegates to vote for her, considering she won the overall popular vote in the actual primaries and caucuses.  The superdelegates are free to change their support as often as they want to until they have to place their vote in August at the DNC. 

The democratic media is scared to death that hillary will drag this out until the DNC and rip apart the democratic party, the MEDIA's party.  Can't have that happening!

(you may have noticed that I didn't capitalize obama, or hillary, I wouldn't capitalize mccain either.  These 3 clowns have not earned the right in my writing to deserve having their names capitalized)

It is over. It has been over for months despite the fact that hillary is still swinging, the last 2 months has been the equivalent of a boxer who has the points on the cards locked up and just sits in the corner and waits for the fight to end. And, the only way you can say that hillary has won the popular vote is if you exclude the caucuses and/or include Michigan and don't apply the Uncommitted votes (even partially) to obama. *lowercase names used in respect for blogger

Obama doesn't deserve the right to represent this country! I refuse to vote for anyone who doesn't wear a lapel flag to show their support and love for our country. Why should we as a people want someone in office who is ashamed to be called American!!!!!

Didn't Billary say way back in the early stages of this that they had something really bad on Obama but they weren't going to publish it. Maybe she's holding out until whatever that is can be properly leaked.

Rumor has it it's a recording of obama's wife making some racial statements/slurs what have you... I heard it was a race between hillary and the republicans to get their hands on it. I wouldn't count the clintons out for anything, whitewater ring a bell? If I was obama, I'd be scared to death and I sure as heck wouldn't pick her as vp as that may be his own demise. But, until the DNC and the actual superdelegate votes are cast will the nominee be the nominee. hillary had some supers switch on her, and one or more that switched to obama then back to her. Wackier things can happen, especially when you involved a clinton.
