Am I alone in thinking Hillary is a complete hypocrite? She is pushing and pushing, along with McCain, that Obama made a pledge regarding public financing and he is not going to follow through with it. He did make that pledge and has NOT said he would not keep it. But why are Clinton and McCain so scared he won't keep his pledge - because he can raise $2 for every $1 they can.
HOWEVER, Clinton did pledge that no delegates of Florida or Michigan would count. But now her new website says "FACT: Florida and Michigan should count, both in the interest of fundamental fairness and honoring the spirit of the Democrat's 50-state strategy."
Why wasn't she worried about fundamental fairness and honoring the spirit of the Democrat's 50-state strategy BEFORE she won the primary in Florida and Michigan? Why did she win the primaries in Michigan and Florida? Oh yeah, that's right, Obama removed his name from the ballot in Michigan and Hillary was the only candidate to campaign in Florida.
In light of the fact that she is loosing her bid for the nomination by doing it the old-fashioned way, getting the popular vote, will she be another George W. Bush and make a court decide? Can she really be the candidate of the future if she resorts to the tactics of the past?
