McGovern...HILLARY DROP OUT

[gaiilonfong]

Here it comes. They are going to start telling her to stop destroying the Party

Comeon let the rest come forward. It is time for Hillary to go away!

This was just announced on MSNBC

[jefferson_dem]

1. McGovern doesn't count...

anymore.

[DMorgan]

19. RIGHT... McGovern is "dead" to Bill and Hillary!

[psychopomp]

25. Honestly, I didn't know that he is alive

:hide:


I mean, the man flew bombers in WWII and unfortunately the number of men from that generation is getting smaller and smaller these days (women, too, of course; just to a lesser extent). If any of Mr. McGovern's generation are reading my post, my proverbial hat off to you and "long may you run!"

:toast:

[DMorgan]

26. Very nice! I agree, He's a hero!

[Justitia]

2. yup - officially transferring his support from Clinton to Obama. He's going to call Bill Clinton.

Bill will most likely embarrass himself and shout at McGovern like a lunatic.

[book_worm]

3. He's a super, right? because he was the nominee in '72? I think all living ex-noms are supers.

[WeDidIt]

5. Not a Super D. n/t

[grantcart]

12. not a super

[Renew Deal]

4. Is he switching his support???

Is that true?

[MadBadger]

6. Truth be told, if you watched him on the Colbert Report, he sounded like an Obama supporter

I think it was Colbert, from a few months ago. He said he had endorsed Hillary, but sounded like he really liked Obama and at the time didnt think much of his chances.

[Colobo]

7. Hopefully. Obama is the nominee...

[Buzz Clik]

8. Another rightwing shill weighs in.

:eyes:

[FlaGranny]

21. Rightwing shill? I suggest you

do some reading to see who McGovern is - that is, unless you forgot your "sarcasm" tag.

[Buzz Clik]

23. ugh.

[FlaGranny]

29. Ugh?

That's like calling JFK a right wing shill or Jimmy Carter a right-wing shill.

[Buzz Clik]

31. Sorry, granny, but I don't like explaining my jokes.

If you want to get pissed off, go for it.

[FlaGranny]

33. I didn't see

a sarcasm flag, and I asked if you forgot it. But, rest assured, I'm not pissed off. I was a bit astounded though. I haven't been around the board for some time until recently, so I don't "know" everyone as well as some do. You have to admit, your joke was easy to misinterpret.

[berni_mccoy]

9. OOOOOOOOO SNAP! McGovern Was One of Her FIRST ENDORSEMENTS!

[K Gardner]

10. McGovern has defected. Announced his support for Obama. This embarassment would NOT have

been necessary - even if Clinton had remained in through Puerto Rico - had she not initiated the divisive scorched earth crap she did last night and this morning. It is her own fault.

[Colobo]

11. Hillary needs to stop this... for her own sake.

[SoonerPride]

14. Wow

That's huge.

[Jersey Devil]

13. Next up? Maybe Carter? Gore?

If they come out one after the other it may force her out sooner rather than later.

[SoonerPride]

16. That's my thought. Pelosi, Reid, et al might act switflty to end this thing

They know now it is over.

[thewiseguy]

15. Let the defections begin

[JBoy]

18. Yes, some gentle embarassments would be effective right now.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

17. The god of peace has spoken.

:evilgrin:

[Colobo]

20. Yep!

[tabasco]

22. McGovern just joined the Liberals Who Don't Count Club.

Welcome to the clubhouse, George! :hi: :toast: :hi:

[stevenleser]

24. K&R, Go McGovern and GoBama!

[suston96]

27. McGovern? Oh, yeah.....He rolled over Richard Nixon in 1972......

28. McGovern doesn't count

right?

[Starbucks Anarchist]

30. Odd that Hillary worked on his campaign.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillary_Clinton#Law_school

The following summer, Rodham and Clinton campaigned in Texas for unsuccessful 1972 Democratic presidential candidate George McGovern.

[followthemoney]

32. Time to fire your campaign manager, Hillary.

Baghdad Bob is giving you some bad advice.
