If by dynasty you mean turd and by throne you mean toilet, then I agree.

Yeah and Bill Richardson is going to really really regret his betrayal if Hillary gets the nomination.

I see a sore ass arising,
I see trouble on the way,

I see a debt that will be paid.

sepuku2: betrayal

I think the problem here is that these people think that they are somehow owed a personal loyalty. Richardson's loyalty should be towards New Mexico and the United States, NOT a particular politician.

sepuku2: Yeah and Bill Richardson is going to really really regret his betrayal if Hillary gets the nomination.

Since that has about a 9% chance of happening (according to slate.com) I think he's pretty safe.

All I'm saying, is if, if, she is nominated, she will get even with people who have made their fortunes on the Clintons and then backed out on them.

Her beating Obama is about as likely as the 2008 Patriots losing the Super Bowl. Oh, wait...

Even, no make that especially, if she loses the nomination you can bet that she will do everything in her power to fark with the people that she thinks farked with her.

Terry Benedict doesn't hold a grudge like the Clinton's do, and he's fictional.

Ba-boom! Killed three birds with one stone. Excellent, Governor Richardson.

sepuku2: Yeah and Bill Richardson is going to really really regret his betrayal if Hillary gets the nomination

Yes...God forbid someone excercise their free will and right to choose whom they politically support. That would be downright unAmerican!

friendinpa: Even, no make that especially, if she loses the nomination you can bet that she will do everything in her power to fark with the people that she thinks farked with her.

They've already done it. They told Kerry to lose their phone numbers and forget any future political support after he endorsed Obama.

You sir, are an idiot. Let me explain. Politics is in many ways like a football game. I see your allusion to that, very nice. The mistake you have made is in the proportional calculation of ime left on the clock and point deficit. Football is known to feature great comebacks. Never in the history of football has a team come back to win from a 50 point deficit after the game clock had already expired.

The best is yet to come. Best scenario for people like Richardson and Kerry is that she wins the nomination, loses the election and can get back to fighting the vast rightwing conspiracy as a Senator.

Because if she loses the nomination or somehow wins the presidency you can bet she will have a list that will make Nixon look like the Pope and she will use all of the power of her office to fark with the people on that list.

Intrade.com traders indicate Obama's chances of winning the nom at 81.3%. I think that any pol would be a damn fool to back Hill now unless they hail from a predominantly white trash district.

i really want to play poker with some of the people who think hillary will win the nomination. they are really bad at calculating odds and making wise decisions based on them.

Yes!... 2,10 off-suit! Just think of all the great hands these cards could make if a large number of things happen perfectly!

What? The best case scenario prominent Democrats who back Obama is for John McCain to win?

The best scenario for AMERICA is for her to drop out gracefully, and soon. As that's not gonna happen, she'll be kicked out in June. At this point, she's lucky if she doesn't face a primary contender for her senate seat.

 
bwesb 2008-04-24 04:55:03 PM  
Keep running your mouth, Carville. One of the great bonuses of HillBill losing and looking like the farkhead that it is will be to see you eat a plate of STFU.

A primary contender? That's New York; once they smell blood in the water the sharks will start to circle...and beating a Clinton? that's like winning a gold medal in the Olympics while getting blown by Jessica Alba at the same time to the republicans.

Bill Richardson is the man. I'm not a democrat, but I would have been stoked if either he or Biden would have won the nomination.

 
FetusAGoGo 2008-04-24 05:41:57 PM  
I was watching Richardson and Carville on Larry King yesterday and it was revolting. Carville reminded me of Evil Gollum every time he'd make a point against Richardson. Richardson had this crazy twitch going on in the corner of his mouth, too. I'm not sure if it was just him or Carville was just acting too slimy to keep a calm face.

you never know, you could flop three 10s! or 2 10 10!

TFA: The CNN contributor defended calling Richardson a 'Judas' in a New York Times interview after the governor announced his endorsement of Obama. "I said it. I was quoted accurately. I was quoted in context. I thought it was an appropriate metaphor,"

So, Obama is Judas, a man whose actions caused temporary pain to some resulting in ultimate salvation for all?

/slow with the comeback
//been waiting for weeks for someone to bring this Judas thing up again.

Oh no, this is a case where Clinton had pocket Jacks (club and spade, watched 3 6 and 9 of spades pop up and has been getting super excited... not realizing that Obama has bullets - including the ace of spades.

Ah damn, he's the easy way:

Clinton: J♠ J♣
Obama: A♠ A♣

Flop: 3♠ 6♠ 9♠
Turn: Q♥

And Clinton is going all in.

Carville isn't an elected leader, nor in any sense, representative of 'normal people' as a whole. Just another shiat-disturbing bottom-feeding sludge peddler. And it seems that he LOVES that he is, relishes it. When people hate him, he thinks his strategy is working.

At this point, she's lucky if she doesn't face a primary contender for her senate seat.

And I will be donating some serious money to whoever that is. . .

 
barneyfifesbullet 2008-04-24 09:45:16 PM  
Clinton wouldn't promise Richardson anything, so he bailed.

Obama is the one who will be lucky to hold on to his Senate seat after he gets a Mondale-like stomping in November.

Heh, everytime I see Carville's name now I hear John Edwards' bit on the Colbert Report playback in my head.

/"On one hand I don't want to be seen as anti-hope, on the other I don't want James Carville to bite me"

Oh its alright. Its only Carville. Nobody looks to him as a role model and its good for Obama to have a surrogate, in Richardson, who has a legitimate reason to take him on.

Carville can spew his vile rhetoric and Obama doesn't even have to address it. Its great.

As frustrated as I get with some Hillary supporters I would never accuse them of being like Carville. There's a reason he looks like Gollum. Every man gets the face he deserves at 50.
