#1 Popcorn! I need more popcorn.

#2 Barry, you idiot! You have to drive the stake through the heart, stuff the mouth with garlic, and cut off the head. He's heading to Hawaii on vacation tomorrow to prep for his coronation. She's setting up parades in Denver for "her supporters", and demanding floor votes. He should vet his aircraft's mechanics verrrrry carefully

#3 Obama keeps stepping on his crank, Hillary might forgo the sure win in 2012 (which she would have by backstabbing him after the nomination), and instead take a chance now and put the shiv into him in a floor fight.

#4 At the rate of Gaffs with Obama, he will only win California and the north-east at this rate.

#5 If Barry is going to Hawaii, it's to cover the bogus birth certificate issue. He better bring a lot of cash on this trip. Rodham is betting on a birth at sea, which makes Barry a citizen of the nation the ship was flagged under.
Damn those technical issues.

#6 It's like watching a football game when you don't really care who wins. You just want it to be a close, exciting, hard hitting game to the very end. As much as I despise her, I have to admire the way Hillary is fighting like an alley cat to the bitter end. And you never know, if Obama does something really stupid between now and then some of those super delegates might change their minds. Maybe we could even get some tear gas going. That'd be soooo cool.

#7 Those protesters will msmagically become "right wing" if there's violence.

#8 This has been a possibility ever since Mr. 0 started dropping in the polls.

At this time in almost any election the Dem has a big lead. Clinton has sat back and waited to see it there was a shot. Since it all depends on the Super Delegates that was always a possibility.

With 0s humourless gaffe filled past month (see reaction to Paris) the door is open.

Now, if you want violence Mr./Ms. Pebbles wait for the reaction if 'bama-rama DOESN'T get the nomination.

#9 Last week, Obama campaign officials said they hope to turn the stadium crowd into a giant phone bank, with attendees using their cell phones to ask friends and others to register and vote.

Bite me, asshole. Do your own work.

#10 Everytime he talks he slips in the polls. Latest polls say he's overexposed. A trip to Hawaii to help us forget him might be a wise move.

#12 It'll be fun to watch what that would do to the cell system.

#13 They will likely have a set of temporary XRT there for the volume.

#14 rjschwarz I agree; every time he gets into trouble he takes a vacation somewhere. It should be pointed out that only a few Americans are able to just pack up and leave for Hawaii for 2 weeks, and I believe this is his 3rd such trip already this year.

#15 Hillary better get cracking on shaving away Obama's superdelegate edge. Kwamei K. is already in stir. How many more can she get jugged before the convention? Seems like there's a natural affinity of Dems and crooks. Work it baby!

#16 Lets see Mr Obama...

Town Hall with McCain at a military base, or bail out to Hawaii for a "fund raiser".

We see how he rolls, just like Landstuhl.

#17 Rodham is betting on a birth at sea, which makes Barry a citizen of the nation the ship was flagged under.

If one parent is American, the baby is American, wxjames. Unless both the American parent and the baby were/are born outside of American territory. Thus trailing daughter #2, who was born in a German hospital, will need to make sure she flies home from that assignment in Beijing to have her baby... unless she marries an American lad.
