Democratic primary ... all over but the shouting
So they split the delegates from Michigan and Florida, meaning Hillary's already close-to-nonexistent chances are almost completely nonexistent.
And some were unhappy about it.
Let go, people. Let go.
Please.

Re: Democratic primary ... all over but the shouting
The deal passed 19-8. Thirteen members of the committee supported Clinton, so she wasn't even able to keep her supporters together.
The committee also unanimously agreed to seat the Florida delegation based on the outcome of the January primary, with 105 pledged delegates for Clinton and 67 for Obama, but with each delegate getting half a vote as a penalty.
Proponents of full seating continuously interrupted the committee members as they explained their support of the compromise, then supporters of the deal shouted back.
"Shut up!" one woman shouted at another.
"You shut up!" the second woman shouted back.

This is better than Iron Man and Raiders combined.

I actually remember hearing "Shut up!" and "You shut up!" on many different occasions during Iron Man, so it's sorta similar.

Even if hillary had been given every delegate from both states, would she still have a chance?

Next up: Hillary pulls a Britney Spears-esque public meltdown.

Not in terms of delegates. But it might have swung some supers over to her side. Which is where all her hopes are resting.
That and an assassin's bullet.

Lets just hope it doesn't involve flashing her vagina as she gets out of a limo. I'm not sure our nation could handle that...

That would be great. We could finally answer the question of whether the secret service is allowed to shoot a former president! Even better would be the shootout between the two secret service details.
Or not. They would probably just slip old Bill a mickey, and let him sleep it off in the limo.

"Mickey" is an odd name for a campaign intern.

Re: Democratic primary ... all over but the shouting
Depends on Bill's mood as to which way he wants to swing.
Aw, he's no fun, he fell right over.
Unless you become as little children, there's no way you will believe this crap.

Re: Democratic primary ... all over but the shouting
I knew a short Michelle.
About all any man could handle and not die in the process.
I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Lifeline. I got a call center in Pakistan, and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.
