Re: US Primaries: Who will it be? Obama or Hillary (4.00 / 2)

And what happened then? will we need comfy chairs, industrial buckets of popcorn, and plenty of throat medicine, to deal with the damage from cackling evily as it all kicks off?

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

comfy chairs Yup. tick that off

industrial buckets of popcorn. Sounds good. Make mine with extra salt and butter, please

plenty of throat medicine, to deal with the damage from cackling evily as it all kicks off? I prefer to chortle with glee, snicker with delight, and laugh merrily. YMMV but it saves the cost of the throat medicine.

Oh the shadenfreude! Don't cackle too soon. It's looking increasingly unlikely, but the same could happen to the dems with the super delegates deciding the issue...

I'm just warming up my cackling muscles, as it's too many years since they have been needed. Last time was overnight in 1997, watching the tories corkscrew into the ground, and we all know how that turned out in the end.

The last time the Democratic Party pulled that garbage was at the 1968 convention in Chicago.

It didn't work out so good. ;-)

Right! Read somewhere that Hillary holds the super delegates' votes!
