May 31 the "Nuclear Option": What good will it do for her? Seems it hurts the Democratic party.
After looking at the CNN delegate counter he gets to the 2025 easily. It seems the only way she can win is if the rules are changed for her.

1. I think that's her goal. She doesn't care about the rubble she leaves in her wake.

2. Oh yeah, it hurts the Party. But that doesn't seem to be important to her.
This must end no later than June 4.

5. I disagree. I think it's very important to her.
I think her intention is to hurt the party as badly as she can to make sure we don't win this year, leaving the top of the ticket open for her to try again in 2012.

4. The party elders need to kick some ass
this is getting ridiculous.
Hillary needs to get off the stage.
She lost.

6. She doesn't care. She's made it clear it's all about her, party be damned.
The only silver lining to her sorry display of poor sportsmanship is she is wrecking herself on the rocks and self-inflicting her karmic pariah status within the party.

7. she's not going to be in the race in 2012
Obama will be president until 2016. and besides, she's toast this time. she's pissed off so many people, burned so many bridges that next time she won't even be allowed near the toaster.
