suicide won't kill the beast. she's already placed her soul in the phylactary and completed the rituals necessary to achieve lichdom.

Suicide wont fix the damage this biatch has done too.

I think TF'ers should get together and sponsor the official thread announcing her withdrawal from the primary. I want to see a barriage of photoshop'd posters commemorating the moment.

I'm wondering if she's mental stable enough to withdraw from the race. she's tied up so much of her self image in this campaign that a loss might push her into a breakdown of some sort. I think she really is that fragile.

It's actually a bit more obscure than most people realize. just about everyone has heard the instrumental version of that song, but the actual lyrics were never used in the show.

I can't hear the instrumental version without hearing the lyrics in my head. I've seen the movie dozens of times over the years ;)

That show made me want to commit suicide when I was a kid at it came on.. I always sort of though something bigger was going on. That song should also be the theme of Murder She Wrote and Newhart or whatever that show was called.

 
Herman Borrach 2008-05-04 05:28:31 AM  
Ah! It took two reads of the thread to catch the reference (it didn't't help that I was listening to happy Art Blakey and the Messengers jazz right now). That's a doubleplusgood song and a mildly traitorous subversive teevee show. The movie was a prelude to series. Good catch.

I wonder if things have gone full circle with Obama. That is, there's been such relentless bashing over the past few weeks that people are finally sick of it, and are saying "Fark it, I'm voting for him anyway", and it's starting to backfire on Clinton.

From Electoral-vote.com
Pay close attention:

Despite the hotly contested primaries in North Carolina and Indiana Tuesday, the big political news today is not about the presidential race but about Congress. In LA-06, centered around Baton Rouge, state representative Don Cazayoux (D) defeated former state representative and local newspaper publisher Woody Jenkins (R) in a special election to fill the seat vacated by Richard Baker (R), who resigned from the House to become a lobbyist. Cazayou got 49% of the vote to Jenkins' 46% in a race with major national implications. LA-06 is a heavily Republican district with a PVI of R+7 that has been in Republican hands for 33 years. President Bush got 59% of the vote here in 2004.

Both the DCCC and NRCC advertised heavily here. The NRCC referred to Don Cazayoux (a Cajun name) as "Don Tax You" and claimed he is a "liberal," which is a big insult in rural Lousiana. They also tried to tie him to boogeyman Barack Obama and boogeywoman Nancy Pelosi. The whole nine yards. At this point, the Republicans assume Barack Obama will be the Democratic nominee and LA-06 was a field test of their November strategy to paint him as a big-government, high-tax, arugula-eating, orange-juice-drinking, Ivy League, out-of-touch liberal. Only it didn't work, even in a very conservative area. The next field test is scheduled for May 13, when Travis Childers (D) dukes it out with Greg Davis (R) in a runoff for Roger Wicker's seat in MS-01.

By tomorrow every Republican in the House is going to be thinking "There but for the grace of God go I." If a well-known strongly conservative GOP candidate with 28 years experience in the state legislature can't win an open seat in a heavily Republican district that the GOP has held since 1975, what is going to happen in the many open seats and marginal Republican districts in November? To make matters worse for the GOP, the DCCC has $44 million in the bank (of which they spent $1.2 million on this race) to the NRCC's $6 million (of which they spent $500,000 in LA-06).

Actually, I think its more that people who are voting for Obama want change. One aspect of that would, of course, be media coverage on real issues and not garbage we've seen lately. By constantly throwing out more garbage, it just entrenches them in their desire to change the system.

It would be interesting. Doing something like that would no doubt cause rumors to start floating around the net from random political bloggers that she actually is dropping out. Which would then eventually result in MSM reporting on the rumors as if they were facts. Which would then automatically make it true.

 
Lawnchair 2008-05-04 08:37:20 AM  
I think she's starting to come to the bargaining step. "OK, then, VP? Please? Please?"

I'm a little sympathetic. But, Obama knows the Clinton scandals (pardons, foreign fundraisers, etc) that he didn't use, but would be talked about. He doesn't need the distraction. Plus, there's a hundred soundbites of Hillary bashing Obama on the trail this spring that will get more play if she's the VP pick.

The day that Hillary Clinton truly gets her heart stomped on will be the day that Barack Obama picks Kathleen Sebelius to be his history-making VP candidate. She will cry, at least privately, for weeks.

All of the Obama - Clinton backbiting can be easily dismissed as simply a little sibling rivalry among otherwise friendly and above all UNITED democrats. United? Yes united against the real enemy John McBush.

Huh? The very article this thread is about Hillary states that she'll "work [her] heart out for him." She just pledged to allign the Dems if Obama is the nominee.

You...um...you wouldn't be calling Hillary a liar now, would you?

You act like the only conciliatory action Obama can take towards her supporters is to give her the veep slot...not true--except for the die-hard crazies who are so driven by her embattled attitude towards Obama that they want to see her lord some aspect of her persona over him. There is that element of...what was it called...civility? that he can offer her upon her conceding that he is, indeed, the Dem's nominee. He could offer some heavy-hitting supporters of hers (Clark, et al) cabinet positions. And, of course, throwing a bone to that cranky aging demographic that decries the tragedy of not being able to live long enough to see a woman grace the Oval Office with her presence is an option in the form of offering the veep slot to Sebelius, as suggested above by Lawnchair.

There are numerous ways he can cater to her main demographics without compromising himself by sharing a ticket with her. Which is exactly what he would be doing, and is exactly why he won't ever do it.

Think of it like a hockey game. 99% of the time even though you're pounding the shiat out of each other in the rink and even get royally pissed off at people... at the end of the day you still respect and adore them.

Sort of like here.

One of them gets the nomination, both the party and the other candidate will rally around that candidate.

In the end, it's dem vs rep not Obama vs Clinton.

/And it won't divide the party. For such microscopic differences between them, it all boils down to personality. But as we saw with Bush he has an infectious personality (Even McCain does too) but is a shiatty-ass president.

[blows whistle, throws yellow flag] 10 yard penalty, bait-and-switch.

The boos were directed at Easley, later. When she was "trying to bridge the divide", the crowd didn't react at all.

FTFA:
Telling a crowd that was fairly evenly divided between Clinton and Obama supporters that "the stakes are too high for us not to pull together as one team," the New York Senator said "If Senator Obama is the nominee you'd better believe I'll work my heart out for him." The vocal Obama supporters drowned her out with chants of their candidates name.

As the chants subsided, she said "I hope Senator Obama would say the very same thing" - drawing no real reaction.

If their loud reaction is any indication, those same vocal Obama supporters weren't too pleased with popular governor Mike Easley's recent endorsement of Sen Clinton either. The crowd erupted in boos as Clinton thanked Easley for his support.


I think the bigger question here is why did Hillary supporters not pick up on their cue? Jesus, anyone who's ever watched a game show, a football game or pro wrestling should know how this works. The fact that Obama's supporters chanted his name is unsurprising. What is funny is that Hillary supporters did NOT chant their candidate's name. I think it's also pretty amusing that the crowd is identified as both evenly split and implied as if it were a pro-Obama crowd wherever it's convenient for the author.
