I guess in her mind, if she doesn't get her "rightful place" in the oval office, then the country can just go to hell:

Candidate Clinton to Richardson: 'Barack Obama Can't Win'

ABC News' George Stephanopoulos Reports: Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., and former President Bill Clinton are making very direct arguments to Democratic superdelegates, starkly insisting Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., cannot win a general election against presumptive Republican nominee, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.

Sources with direct knowledge of the conversation between Sen. Clinton and Gov. Bill Richardson, D-N.M., prior to the Governor's endorsement of Obama say she told him flatly, "He cannot win, Bill. He cannot win."

Richardson, who served in President Clinton's cabinet, disagreed.

At a rally in Oregon, standing next to Obama, Richardson insisted, "My great affection and admiration for Hillary Clinton and President Bill Clinton will never waver." But he added, "It is time, however, for Democrats to stop fighting among ourselves and to prepare for the tough fight we will face against John McCain in the fall."

She may be right - may be wrong - but arguing her opinion to someone she's wanting support from is hardly despicable.

She knew it would get out. I love how you are defending Hillary just because it was me who posted this and not PatsFaninPsychoLand or someone.

I'm not defending Hillary or attacking you or anyone else. I just don't think it makes her despicable. I still don't like her though.

fair enough. I just don't like it how she's willing to risk ruining the democrats chances to get the nomination.

Why can Obama not win? This is such total BS. The only reason why can't win is because people say he can't. His policies are very similar to Clinton's and he has as more political experience than Bush did when he came into office. People didn't think he could win the nomination. And Al Gore will get shellacked if he tries to run.

.
Perhaps Howard Dean ought to have the Dems start all over again. There's still time. Send out the invitations again to all prospective candidates:

-- AlGore
-- Bill Richardson
-- Chris Dodd
-- Joe Biden
-- Dennis Kucinich
-- Barack Hussein Obama
-- Hillary Rodham Clinton
-- anybody and everybody else who wants to take a shot at it.

Seems only fair, and possibly the only way to get past this log jam. If Hillary says now that "Obama cannot win", what will she do if he gets the nomination?? Will she then campaign for John McCain?? Will she ask to be put on McCain's ticket as Veep?

Things just get curiouser and curiouser. Hm-m-m....

NEM doesn't think America will vote for a black guy.

Actually according to the polls (which admittedly don't mean much at this point) NEM may be right. Prospective polls have him lagging behind McCain in Florida, Pennsylvania, and Ohio - all very important states. The theory, I guess, is that Hilary has a better chance of maybe taking those states.

But who knows really. This has been quite the election season so far, and I'm expecting the rest of it to be as unpredictable and dymanic.

I should have said NEM and most of America....
