Comments on: Obama leads, Clinton spins http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/02/10/obama-leads-clinton-spins/ Recipes from scratch and a lot of chatter about food ( plus a little about politics ) Fri, 27 Aug 2010 23:22:50 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: ellaella http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/02/10/obama-leads-clinton-spins/#comment-1340 ellaella Tue, 12 Feb 2008 02:41:41 +0000 http://foodpluspolitics.com/2008/02/10/obama-leads-clinton-spins/#comment-1340 You can come here to vent anytime! I'm the last person to defend her, but no matter who wins the nomination will likely strongarm the party (in the name of unity, of course. meh) to seat the Florida and Michigan delegates. It's happened before. That said... Barry! You can come here to vent anytime!

First she agreed not to campaign or participate in said primaries, (as did the other candidates who honored that agreement), then she showed up there anyway even having a "victory" celebration in Florida, and now she's trying to work on Party cronies to reinstate the delegates after the fact. Grrrrr.... Obama, honey, it's just the beginning! You have super delegate shenanigans to look forward to also! Oy indeed! It's a finger-biter! Thanks for letting me vent.

That comment really took chutzpah. After her emotional moment here in NH and her win here, she said she'd found her voice. A little bit of political laryngitis in Maine might not have been a bad thing. You have a great week too -- and Happy Valentine's Day. Hi sage! That comment really took chutzpah.

OK. I'll leave it, now. Saying a little prayer that the smear campaign isn't just around the next bend, as I exit. Have a good week ella. :) After all those years, you’d think her brain would be in constant ‘preview monitor’ mode.

OY! “He has increasingly relied on big endorsement and celebrities to sort of attach himself to, to get the kind of validation that comes from that sort of endorsement.”

Uncommitted, uninvested, and I’m embarrassed for her. OY!
