Democratic Convention II

Pass the popcorn:

Bill Clinton appeared to undermine Sen. Barack Obama again Tuesday.

The former president, speaking in Denver, posed a hypothetical question in which he seemed to suggest that that the Democratic Party was making a mistake in choosing Obama as its presidential nominee.

He said: "Suppose you're a voter, and you've got candidate X and candidate Y. Candidate X agrees with you on everything, but you don't think that candidate can deliver on anything at all. Candidate Y you agree with on about half the issues, but he can deliver. Which candidate are you going to vote for?"

Then, perhaps mindful of how his off-the-cuff remarks might be taken, Clinton added after a pause: "This has nothing to do with what's going on now."


After all, it's just a hypothetical situation.

Here is the video.

Over 1,000 Clinton supporters voiced their opposition to the way the primaries and caucuses were run.

The more Obama supporters resort to name-calling like calling Clinton supporters "dead-enders" and accusing them of being GOP moles, when the truth of the matter is it is far more likely the Obama camp was contaminated with GOP people willing to ratfuck the caucuses and primaries to get a weak candidate, the more people are going to be pissed off and not even bother supporting the soon-to-be-nominee. This includes major donors for Hillary Clinton.
