Sociopath: Our Greatest American Draws the Line

Let's discuss the Hillary campaign's Thursday, shall we? Her line now is that she won't accept a compromise to halve Florida and Michigan's delegations — which Obama would likely accept at the big May 31 DNC meeting, and which both Bill Clinton and Terry McAuliffe have very recently supported.

Along with Harold Ickes, who essentially organized the DNC's stripping of these two states' delegates last year, Hillary has been yapping today that the delegations must be seated in full and that Michigan's "uncommitted" pledged delegates cannot go to Obama. It's civil rights, you see, and Hillary is trying to free the slaves, who all voted for Obama after Clinton went racist.

She's also lightning quick to raise the 2000 election fiasco in Florida, where some votes were also not counted. Today she said on a radio show, "Let's not let some rules disenfranchise — particularly Florida that's had enough of disenfranchisement, thank you."

She is urging her supporters to take buses to Washington for the May 31 meeting, to protest about their disenfranchisement.

In other words, because she believes in the ideals of the Democratic party (and finding a cheating way to win), and civil rights (playing up sexism and gender issues so Obama can't win without her on the ticket), she will criticize a DNC agreement from last year stripping two states of their delegates (which she agreed was a great idea and her advisers created) with fair talking points (Obama is Bush and Scalia but worse/black) that her husband and campaign chairman have been saying from the start (opposite of that); if she gets the full delegations counted then the nation will rejoice in her epic victory (national suicide), if she doesn't then she'll drop out gracefully (absolutely go to the convention) and her supporters will all happily vote for Barack Obama (Bob Barr).

Too bad we can't vote for Mitt Romney anymore.
