2. The press has been staking out the house since 6pm and haven't seen anyone enter

Obama probably took a route through the woods or whatever to the backdoor or the press is staking out the wrong location for the meeting.

9. I bet that that's *not* where they're meeting

They were clever enough to get the press up in the air before they could figure out he wasn't on board. They're clever enough to pick a third location and let the press gawk at the wrong house.

3. I think their supporters should follow their lead....

...and talk like rational adults, then reach for the prize that we have lost site of, taking back the country.

5. Uh, They have people to deal with that stuff. It's what's always done.

This likely has more to do with her exit...

Or maybe more.

6. Considering his chat with Holy Joe the other day, I'd pay for video of his meeting with Clinton.

13. Clinton & Obama probably both went to the Bilderberg meeting in Virginia.

Edited on Fri Jun-06-08 01:07 AM by Dover

..Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama met tonight and had a productive discussion about the important work that needs to be done to succeed in November," a joint statement from the two sides said.

CNN's Candy Crowley confirmed that the two met to discuss plans for "bringing the campaigns together in unity for the party."

Earlier, reporters on Obama's press plane learned that the presumed Democratic nominee for president was not aboard when it departed Virginia, where he had been campaigning. Aides said staff members "scheduled him some meetings" in Washington.

The meeting originally was believed to be at Clinton's D.C. home, but sources later said the two met elsewhere in Washington.

May also be why Hillary has stalled until June, postponed her decision/endorsement and held onto her delegates until she could have the chance to plead her case before the upper echelon at Bilderberg. Hope the usual Bilderberg reporters and hounds get pictures/info about attendees, etc. this year, though it's unlikely they would be able to get around this ruse (if indeed Ob/Hil did attend.

And will the more prominent party Repubs also find their way to Virginia this week?
