Has Hillary Clinton Lost Her Mind?

Okay, enough is enough and too much stinks.

As you may well know by now Hillary Clinton has requested that her name be placed on the ballot for nomination at the Democratic National convention set to commence on Monday, August 25th. Incredible! Can you believe this?

I can't remember where I read it or heard it, but they called the 18 million votes that she garnered during her primary run against Senator Obama, "the 18 million holes in the highest glass ceiling." What exactly is that supposed to mean?

When do you accept the fact that YOU lost Hillary? No if's and's or but's about it, YOU lost.
We have watched you for two months after losing bamboozle and swindle your voters into a hate movement against Barack that would make the Republican machine tuck its tail between its legs and run.

How much more does Barack have to put up with? They've used every excuse to disqualify him. He's too young. He's too arrogant. He doesn't know enough. He doesn't have any foreign policy experience; and the list goes on and on. She wined and cried about the fact that he's getting too much media attention (incidentally so is Sen. John McCain), she also stated that she was getting set up when it came to the debate questions, and many other outrageous claims.

In one breath she's saying that as a presidential candidate Barack should expect attacks from every angle, but in another breath she land blasts Barack for ads that he put out to defend his own name in response to her attack ads. Does anyone see the blatant hypocrisy here?

When do the Clinton's learn that when an era is over, it's over; at least until your time comes around again. We love the Clintons, but this is disrespect at the highest level, to say the least.

Now I know no one wants to say it and we've tried to keep it under wraps this entire campaign season, but before the general election gets underway allow me to just say what everyone else has not said or has stated in coded language. Barack is black, and that's the REAL problem.

The man graduated from an Ivy League school. He was President of the Harvard Law Review. He has been a distinguished professor and lawyer in one of America's toughest cities. He displayed judgment that exceeded his age and experience in giving what could have been a career-crippling speech in 2002 when he spoke out against America's choice to go into Iraq. Since he has been in the U.S. Senate, Barack Obama has written 890 bills and co-sponsored another 1096. See here and here for proof.

He's a doer, not just a talker. Hillary Clinton in 6 years has authored just 20 pieces of legislation. Can someone please tell me why this woman's name is still being submitted as a democratic nominee for President of the United States?

Now, I've moved on from Hillary, but let's be honest and admit that until they crown Barack as the nominee, and as long as Hillary's name is still on that ballot, HE IS NOT THE NOMINEE. That's why you still see the word "presumptive" by his name, which by interpretation means, "anything can happen."

Let's ask some questions. How are the 18 million that voted for Hillary not being recognized? You had the right and privilege to vote. Your vote was counted. Respect the Democratic methodology of delegate counting. Your beef shouldn't be with Barack, it should be with the Democratic system. Why should his candidacy be in question?

Let's ask another question. Do we really want a president (Hillary Clinton) that displays this type of spitefulness equivalent to high school conduct? Could we even in the slightest bit trust her when she couldn't tame the folks working for her in her campaign? Can we really trust her to fix the budget crisis when she was in debt at the end of her campaign?

This brings me to another point that I think that by reaching out financially and helping her erase her debt Barack has done more than enough. Hillary's a sore loser. What else does she want?

There's an article from 08/14/08 on CNN's website that details this and basically gives what I believe to be some of the most ridiculous and bogus reasons to defend what Clinton is doing.

Once again a minority has to scrape the bottom to keep what he doesn't even have yet.
