Ordinarily I would agree, but have you forgotten:

Bush vs. Gore?

Hell it's still spoken and argued about.

If we were to shun EVERY presidential candidate who made such absurd self-congratulatory remarks the oval office would have been empty since the 1780s.

Then again, that wouldn't necessarily be a BAD thing....
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

I quit listening to Obama speak about 30 seconds into his first major public appearance at the last Democratic convention. When you have nothing substantial to say and all those words to say nothing it means nothing.

This is my case in point, thus my conclusion. Hillary just reaffirmed the point. :)

I want to start tonight by congratulating Senator Obama and his supporters on the extraordinary race that they have run.

Senator Obama has inspired so many Americans to care about politics and empowered so many more to get involved. And our party and our democracy is stronger and more vibrant as a result. So we are grateful.

And it has been an honor to contest these primaries with him, just as it is an honor to call him my friend. And, tonight, I would like all of us to take a moment to recognize him and his supporters for all they have accomplished.


It would seem that some people have more trouble listening than women have admitting defeat.

uhh huh...


NEW YORK (AP) - Hillary Rodham Clinton says she will consult with party leaders and supporters to determine her next steps now that Barack Obama has enough delegates to clinch the Democratic nomination.
In a speech in New York, Clinton told supporters that: "This has been a long campaign and I will be making no decisions tonight." As she spoke, supporters chanted "Denver, Denver," thinking ahead to the site of the party's convention in August.
