It would appear the Senator is pitching a hissy in her boudoir.

Meanwhile, Obama went out for a round of golf this morning.

The million dollar question..will she be believable?

I will be amazed if she pulls this off.

/hmmmmm

 
Reactron [TotalFark] 2008-06-07 11:25:36 AM  
Should be interesting to see how she manages to turn this into yet another classless, graceless exercise in Clintonian narcissism.

Sadly, I will no longer be needing this...

How do I know this is the official thread?

CarolynLibrarian 2008-06-07 11:30:11 AM  
I can only imagine the scene going on in her house right now. Odds are Bori Bill's already hitting the sauce. Maybe Hill too.

Interesting - CNN just pointed out that she couldn't pass the DC bar, so she took the Arkansas bar abd "hitched her wagon to Bill Clinton". Wow. First time I've ever heard them say anything like that about her.

The rats are jumping ship, I suppose - gotta get out of that association and start manufacturing a close race for the general election.

MSNBC has a live feed too. I think I shall never run for president if I have news people from several agencies outside my house, when they already have cameras at the place I'm going to.

I rarely shush. I do, however, look at the foobies over your shoulder and clear my throat at an inopportune moment to remind you that there are children present.

I need a ceiling librarian pic.

Or just his head.

Or better yet, an ear, wrapped in a note that says "HE COMES OUT ONE PIECE AT A TIME UNTIL I GET THE NOMINATION"

So is she still going to file a lawsuit to try to force her hand?

Oh that would be awesome. Instead of her appearing its Terry McAuliffe who comes out to read the text of the injunction they just obtained.

 
CarolynLibrarian 2008-06-07 11:36:23 AM

Word everywhere is that she's conceding, not suing. Though if she does, sue, I think she will be taking her life in her hands. But then, the Democrats' hitman would be cancelled out by the Republicans' bribes NOT to kill her, so...

 
gilgigamesh 2008-06-07 11:36:54 AM  
And by awesome, I mean suicide-inducing.

 
AlanSmithee [TotalFark] 2008-06-07 11:37:05 AM  
I predict this will be a yawner. Lotsa empty rhetoric about unity, plus a dollop of Obama brown-nosing.
However, I'm hoping for a few passages with in-between-the-lines acerbic goodness.

Probably delivered by a heavily medicated candidate. I predict a very underwhelming performance.

I'll be pleasantly stunned to hear her actually, finally concede...

Say, I'm looking for something along the lines of a gonzo version of tentacle porn but with redheaded dwarfs and at least a hint of a storyline. Can you recommend anything? I checked the card catalogs but all I came up with was already checked out.

I know what you mean. It's almost unbelievable now, isn't it? I keep thinking she's going to stand up and say, "I talked with Barack, and he wouldn't give me - us - the respect I - WE deserve, so I'm fighting ON!!!! WE'LL TAKE THIS ALL THE WAY TO DENVER, and we'll show those patriarchal pigs who's in power now!

Oh God, please no. Just go, Hillary. Go. Now.

 
CarolynLibrarian 2008-06-07 11:45:13 AM  
Well - she's now officially late. I wonder what's going on in there...

You know, this could turn out to be really awkward for the Hillary supporters. It's like when you spend hours bashing an ex with someone, then have to keep quiet about all of the horrible things you and the ex used to say about him once they get back together.

Carl Bernstein actually gave her huge kudoes today .. BO's internals are tanking and they want to hitch to the Hillary wagon now. All the while talking that it much be Hillary who "brings' her vote to Barack ..

Barack must EARN those votes, just as Hillary did.

Rock on Hillary .. we'll be waiting for you.

We'll Be Waiting For You .. YES WE WILL.


Wow, it's like a freakin' CULT over there...

She's probably been stewing since the news went out and now she just can't do it.

Ok, she actually left the house. I hate to say it, but I want to make a stupid joke about Bill jangling the keys as he waited for her...

Has she? MSNBC was showing "movement around the SUVs, but no Hillary.

Oh - and nice about the keys. God knows he wouldn't just come out and say, "Hillary, let's GO..."

She'll wait till December before doing this.

Funny that MSNBC just mentioned that one of the issues Hillary & Obama should work together on is a woman's right to choose. Whenever a bill that even mentions abortion has come to the Senate floor for a vote, Hillary has been conspicuously absent.

I don't know - I feel like, if she hasn't done it by now, she won't. I know that it would have been disastrous politically so far... but the same political things will exist in December.

But then, she could surprise me. Not that she ever has, once I figured her out, but she could.

I think that Bill is an albatross to her now, so she'll dump him at the first opportune moment, ie, after the election.

You may be right - the one thing that has changes is that Bill's luster as a former president seems to have disappeared. Dumping him now probably would not be nearly so disastrous as dumping him 6 years ago. Might even win her points among those who vilified her for standing by her man during all the sex scandals.

We'll have to wait and see.
