One Guy's Take on the Results of the Democratic Primaries

May 30, 2008 - The Detroit Pistons fell 9 points short of topping the Boston Celtics in the tally that is generated by making baskets in a basketball game, thus making the Celtics the representative for the Eastern Conference in this year's NBA Finals. In short: Detroit Lost. After the game, they didn't sit around the locker room and say, "Well, we only lost the game by 8 points, so maybe we should play game 7 anyway; you know, just to be fair." If they had said that, observers would have checked their Gatorade for psychotropics, so why is it okay for Hillary Clinton to pull this shit? SHE LOST. Obama reached and surpassed the number of delegates needed to win the nomination and without any more primaries to hold, the contest is over. Yet, all of her campaign people and Hillary herself are saying, "She's going to decide what to do." The only thing Mrs. Clinton has to "decide to do" is when exactly she's going to return to the Senate and serve out the rest of her term, because her Presidential campaign is OVER. I was watching clips of her speech and her lame supporters are chanting "Denver! Denver!" I can see them doing that if Obama didn't reach the delegate goal, but HE WON. It's OVER. How is this any different from a sporting event where the final tally decides the contest? The Patriots didn't get to say, "Well, we went undefeated during the regular season, so can't we play a second Super Bowl to determine the real winner?" This woman and her supporters are living in a fantasy world. Obama owes her NOTHING, except a letter that states: "Thanks for wasting my time and energy on deflecting your pathetic attempts to discredit me...bitch." The Clintons are pathetic and the Democratic leadership needs to make them go away now.
