Significantly trailing Sen. Barack Obama in delegates, Sen. Hillary Clinton made a last-ditch effort to settle the hotly contested presidential race Monday, when she loudly shouted a proposal that the candidate who gets the next vote wins the Democratic nomination. “All sides have battled long and hard, and now it is time to take up a fair and impartial method for deciding this: next vote takes all,” Clinton said, adding that she was crossing her fingers behind her back to ensure that the electoral process is allowed to take its course. “Although I am open to discussing the feasibility of implementing a best-two-out-of-three policy, it has become clear the only way to settle this historic campaign is whoever can run to that door first—go!” Members of the Obama campaign disputed the results of the footrace, pointing out that the Illinois senator had long ago called for ace of black magic times infinity with no backsies.
Sure, it’s The Onion, but would you really be surprised?

I bet one of those Clinton “strategists” is reading this thinking “Fuck, that’s a great idea!”.

that former, gravel-voiced shill for Mitt Romney was on MSNBC a few minutes ago, and, ye gods, she actually started to make sense.
in reference to Hillary’s supporters being “enraged” that she’s losing, she said “real equality means you might lose the competition. you don’t get to automatically win just because this is the first time a woman has run for president.”
when Mitt Romney People start making more sense than Hillary, we are truly in Bizarro World. less votes = winner!

rob!, it is always easier to see the speck in your neighbor’s eye than the plank in your own.
Republicans have been absolutely prescient about finding all the things wrong with their Democratic opposition. Every now and again, I even agree with what they find so unsettling or illogical.
Strangely, all this wisdom hasn’t done them much to win elections in the past two years.

If Hillary were just a blogger on BJ, and making up the crazy shit she has been slinging lately, we’d laugh her extra large ass outta here.
On the Big Stage, though, you can say anything. Up there, you won’t get challenged.

Barack Obama should apologize for that sexist comment of yours, TZ.
I expect him to renounce immediately.

I was only quoting Reverend Wright.
Neal
Was Jeremiah Wright wearing a flag pin at the time that he said that?

At first, I thought that WAS a real Hillary quote. That’s how far the Hillary campaign has descended into self-parody.

Michael D Continues on a Roll of Posts that actually make sense.

Yes, the way Clinton talks about West Virginia, and the way she will talk about Kentucky, the Onion article isn’t far from the truth.
Tax Analyst
Well, we all know that as Kentucky goes, so goes the Nation, right?
Uh, well…not really, except in Hillaryland this week.
Dreggas
Yep, she even said yesterday no president has won without winning Kentucky. There’s enough legalease in there that it deserves an asterisk.
