You think Bill might be getting jealous of all the attention his wife is getting?  Explain to me how this quote helps her campaign:

Speaking to California Democrats at their statewide convention, former President Bill Clinton told delegates to "chill out," over concerns the contentious race for the presidential nomination is tearing apart the party.

"Don't let anybody tell you we are weakening the Democratic Party," he said. "Chill out we're going to win this election, if we just chill out and let everybody have their say. This is a good thing."

Clinton said he was confident a Democrat would win the presidency, whether it was his wife Sen. Hillary Clinton or Sen. Barack Obama.

Doesn't this concede the electability argument?

It stops the pressure Hillary's getting to end the game at the beginning of the fourth quarter.

Isn't that pointless when her sole argument for continuing is that she is more likely to beat McCain than Obama?

That is far from her sole argument.

Here are the others:

1.  She is more qualified to be President from her years looking the other way when Bill was getting BJ's and dodging sniper fire in Bosnia as first lady.
2.  Including Michigan and Florida, more Democratic primary voters want her to be the nominee.
3.  Obama's blackish.

I don't know   I would bet the democratic candidate easily wins in Nov. as long as they don't piss off the the losers supporters.  I think if they finish the primary (regardless of the FL and Mich. fiasco) with some level of dignity the winner will get more support (money and votes) from the losers following (by gones will be by gones and all unite to beat a common foe).   I think a lot of the early winner hype (this year anyway) is media driven drama.

If I didn't hate her before, I certainly do now

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Her and Stallone do look alike.

Indeed.

Rocky was a great movie but it was fiction.

Sylvester Stallone won and lost as many fights as the Eagles have won Superbowls.

haha, it would be Sean Taylor's birthday today, but he's dead!

I hate the internet. It gives a voice to the most feeble-minded ass monkeys alive.

It's the tradeoff we make for lolcats.
