Hillary reminding us of 2000 where the "candidate with fewer votes was declared the winner."

Edited on Wed May-21-08 01:23 PM by flpoljunkie

Here we go again--the Hillary camp trying to change the rules! Remind you of anyone?

Remember the talk about the Bush people thinking he would win the popular vote and lose the electoral college vote in 2000, and his people were working very hard to make the case that the popular vote winner should be declared the president.

It is not our votes here in Florida Hillary Clinton is worried will not be counted, it's increasing her delegate numbers!

Wake up, Democrats! The Clinton campaign is trying to pull a fast one!

She is really laying it on thick now in this live speech on MSNBC. It is a desperate and shameless spectacle.

2. Boy when we wanted Hillary to talk abou the 2000 elections...

...and how the winner didn't win, she said nothing. Now she uses it to her advantage.

3. Ah, but the rules don't apply to the Clintons.

And why isn't she concerned about the caucus state votes?

This is Clinton hypocrisy at its best.

7. Yes, her pollster Geoff Garin, said this morning, nominee may not be decided even after June 3rd.

I am beginning to feel, not only will there not be a 'graceful' exit--there will be no exit by the Clintons--who are showing more every day they will put their own interest above that of the Democratic party in November. I hope I am wrong!

9. Pitiful

and despicable pandering. She knew the lay of the land before the race even started and didn't complain once. Now her royal highness wants the rules rewritten for her. How sad to see a Democrat use the pukes stealing the election to prop up her own failing nomination.
