MSNBC Continues to Put the Heat on Hillary Clinton to GIVE UP or ELSE.

The torrent of Hillary must quit programming put out by MSNBC continues from one show to the next. The hosts change, but the message stays the same. Just who is MSNBC to DICTATE the future rather than report the present?

Ron Christie Quote "Not only do you not bargain but I think she could be a little more gracious than she has been. I have still not heard Senator Clinton say 'congratulations, senator Obama for clinching the nomination. I look forward to working with you in beating John McCain this fall.'"

"She keeps saying that she's gonna review her options. SHE DOESN'T HAVE ANY OPTIONS, SHE DOESN'T HAVE ANY POWER OR ABILITY TO INFLUENCE THE SYSTEM ANYMORE."

"Senator Obama is the standard bearer, it's his party now. but I don't think it's gracious to try to bargain for the VP spot now, I just don't."


What a WINDBAG!

This is just the tip of the MSNBC Hillary assault iceberg, it's been going on all day on the hour every hour. I hold MSNBC responsible for the most harrassing use of a news channel I have ever witnessed against a political candidate.

More Media Bias Against Hillary Clinton Courtesy of Yahoo.

After Demolishing Barack Obama in Kentucky by 35 percentage points, Yahoo goes with the headline "Clinton not ready to concede", and then Yahoo starts their story with... "Despite being trounced in the Oregon primary, Hillary won't throw in the towel yet....

Kentucky and Oregon have very similar population totals, but somehow Hillary was trounced in Oregon by 18 points, but no such language is used to describe Hillary's 35 point winning margin in Kentucky. This type of internet "news" reporting has been going on for several months now.

The lack of quality reporting about the cheating that went on by the Barack Obama camp in the caucus states and the assault on Hillary Clinton by the media and the internet has been a disgrace to freedom loving people around the world.

The Mirage behind Barack Obama's Caucus Delegate "Victories".

The Mirage behind Barack Obama's Caucus Delegate "Victories".
The democratic caucus races held in 14 states plus 2 overseas resulted in approximately 333 caucus delegates going to Barrack Obama. Hillary Clinton received 142 caucus delegates, a net gain for Barrack Obama of 191 delegates. No exact caucus popular vote totals exist because 4 caucus states don't release official vote totals, however it appears that approximately 1 million democrats (perhaps slightly more) voted in all of the caucus contests.

In California, approximately 4.2 million voters voted. When all 16 caucus vote totals are added together along with the state of California's vote totals, Hillary Clinton had more total votes than Barrack Obama. I mention this because even though Hillary Clinton had more total votes when California and all the caucus votes are added together, Barrack Obama still received 499 delegates while Hillary Clinton received only 363 delegates. Hillary Clinton received 136 less delegates even though Hillary led in total votes cast from all the caucuses and California vote totals combined.

More startling facts about caucuses. Barrack Obama's 11 highest winning percentages are in caucus states! 13 of Obama's 16 highest winning percentages are in caucus states! It's important to let that statistic sink in. The mathematical odds that Barrack Obama's 11 highest winning percentage margins would ALL be in caucus states would practically be infinitesimal IF caucus state voting was as fair as primary voting.

More proof is available that caucus states have unfairly skewed delegates to Obama's side. In Washington state, Barrack Obama won the caucus vote by a stunning 68% to 31% margin. 10 days later, Washington state held a non-binding primary. The much higher voter turnout resulted in a virtual tie between Barrack Obama and Hillary Clinton. From 68%/31% to 51%/46%, yet Barrack Obama received 53 delegates, Hillary Clinton only 25 delegates.

The evidence is overwhelming that Barrack Obama's success is largely pinioned on his exaggerated wins in the caucus states that require approximately 88% less votes per selected delegate. That's right, caucus states require approximately 88% less voters to select each delegate. Since a disportionately small amount of caucus voters get to select delegates, shouldn't these caucus delegates at the very least not be allowed to sway the super-delegates nor be used as some type of mandate that the super delegates must follow? It is incumbent upon Dean and Pelosi to make it known that the superdelegates CAN vote however they want without retribution.

It is clear that Hillary Clinton is the more popular democratic candidate when voters vote "primary style", in a voting booth and having all day to vote, which is exactly the way voters will vote this upcoming November in the Presidential election.

Budgetgate, or how the Media is Keeping their Job by making sure Hillary Clinton Drops out of the Race.

Budgetgate, or how the Media is Keeping their Job by making sure Hillary Clinton Drops out of the Race.
Is Budgetgate real? Did the media relentlessly gang up on Hillary Clinton in an effort to get her to resign from the race to save their own jobs?

Is it possible that the democratic race has gone on much longer than anyone anticipated and in combination with covering John McCain this has caused some news stations to go over their payroll budgets? Is it possible that the incessant "Hillary is dividing the party", "Hillary should quit", and "Hillary cannot get the necessary delegates before the convention" banter (Obama can't get the necessary delegates either) that has gone on for the past few weeks had a sinister ulterior motive?

If Hillary is out of the race, does it not become easier to cover the remaining two candidates from a logistical and budgetary perspective? ABC just announced a series of payroll cuts to trim their news budget. Could other news channels be far behind?

If there is even a smidgen of validity to my hypothesis, will the very people committing the act of manipulating the news so they can save their own job, report it? Doubtful.
