  • GETTING HOPES UP IS A BAD IDEA: The rumors continue to “swirl” on the Internet about Hillary’s plans to wrap it up after tomorrow’s primaries. Apparently she and Obama will both be in New York City Wednesday. Will she endorse him? No, they will go to Queens and fight, with guns. [The Hill]

    Welcome to the ConventionDome

  2. Godless Liberal * says at 3:53 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I would almost rather they settle this with gunplay. Obama’s blackness gives him a natural advantage with pistols and such. It’s no different than if they played a game of H-O-R-S-E, and with the same bloody outcome.

  3. GenghisConvict says at 3:53 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    i feel a poisoning coming on…

  4. shortsshortsshorts says at 3:54 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Never-ending cluster fuck, ‘08.

  5. Game of hoops.

  6. Dave J. says at 3:55 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    This would be something like the 10th time I’ve felt pretty certain that she was going to drop out and started to feel warm-hearted towards her again, only to have her campaign do something uber-douchetastic the following day. I’ll believe it when I read that Harriet Christian has covered herself with Fancy Feast and let her 97 cats consume her, but not a moment sooner.

  7. SayItWithWookies says at 3:56 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    The entirety of Hillary’s speech on Tuesday night: “The torch will be passed to a younger generation — when you can pry it out of my cold, dead hands!

  8. valobama says at 3:57 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    oh goody! i’m on!

  9. tunamelt says at 3:57 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Godless Liberal *: They could also settle this with a game of dominoes, which would also give Obama an advantage.

  10. bitchincamaro says at 3:58 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    “No, they will go to Queens and fight, with guns. ”

    They needs to take that shit to Weehawken, yo.

  11. DudeLooksLikeALady says at 3:58 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I’m picturing something like the knife fight in Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” video….

  12. ronaldpagan says at 3:58 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Or Coney Island?

    Warriors, come out and play-ay

  13. Cicada says at 3:59 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    This is just part of Hillary’s master plan to repeatedly raise and dash the hopes of Barry’s base. By the time the convention rolls around, everyone will be so demoralized they’ll vote for Hilz just to end the misery.
    You just know Hilz is sitting in her bunker, rubbing her hands together and chuckling “Mwah ha ha ha ha…..”

  14. WonksRunAmuck says at 4:00 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Godless Liberal *: ditto re: the blackness. Although with her Bosnia experience, it might just be a fair match.

  15. SayItWithWookies says at 4:00 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ronaldpagan: We got “reply-tos!”

  16. ReelectTilden says at 4:02 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ronaldpagan: Hillary is preparing her spiked bat.

  17. obfuscator says at 4:03 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    tunamelt:

    Chess in Central Park?

    H-O-R-S-E at the Rucker?

    Freestyle rap battle at the Apollo? (actually, I’m not sure Barry has and advantage with that one.)

  18. freakishlystrong says at 4:04 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Oh Cornholio..WHY do I feel something about a “popular vote” being shrilled?

  19. SayItWithWookies says at 4:04 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    obfuscator: Dogfight in WWI biplanes without parachutes, a la The Great Waldo Pepper.

  20. TrukNutz says at 4:04 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I hate you, Ron Burgundy. I hate you.

  21. WonksRunAmuck says at 4:05 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I don’t believe it for a minute. If she was really going to call it quits, she would do so with her beloved disenfranchised bitters in Florida and Michigan.

  22. Godless Liberal * says at 4:05 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I also have a deep and abiding fear that she will be on stage with him and is all set to give her concession/endorsement speech when she stops mid-sentence, flips him the double bird, kicks him in the stomach and spins around and drops him with a Stunner before chugging four beers.

    And I haven’t watched wrestling in five years, so that can’t be it.

  23. obfuscator says at 4:06 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    SayItWithWookies:

    Now I’m thinking of Snoopy vs. The Red Baron. That song was catchy.

  24. Doglessliberal says at 4:06 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    tunamelt: or Dozens. I bet Obama can do Yo Mamas pretty well, seeing as how he is of the Negro persuasion and it is genetic with them, right? Oh, but maybe the Muslim part of him cancels that out.

  25. tunamelt says at 4:07 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    obfuscator: Running a marathon?

  26. JewdishoowarySquare says at 4:07 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    @obfuscator: Ultimate Fighting at the Unisphere.

  27. bitchincamaro says at 4:07 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Dave J.: Damn straight, DJ. Hairy Christian devoured by her own pussies is my litmus test. I’ve had it with this false campaignus interuptus from Camp Clinton.

  28. tunamelt says at 4:08 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Doglessliberal: yo mama so ugly when she tried out for the ugly contest they disqualified her on account of no professionals…

  29. Showdown at the NOTOK Corral huh? Hillz better stay out of Cambria Heights and Laurelton. Bayside would be a much better venue. I don’t think that ‘ol Hillz hasn’t thought this one out very well: H, what is it the say about gun fights? “1. Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns.” Opps! She strikes out at rule #1: H don’t have no friends with guns, does she. But Barry’s black, and all black people have guns. So Barry wins…AGAIN. Hillz, here a bit of advise: shoot him in the back when he turns to wave at the adoring crowds. Better yet, shot him in the back when he kisses a baby and maybe you can get the baby too. Yes I know, that would be a dirty trick, but why stop now girl? Queue the GB&U music. ARE YOU READY TO RUMBLE!

  30. freakishlystrong says at 4:12 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Holy shit! ‘member Pantsuited Gorgon mentioned RFK’s assination, in JUNE? Bitch is gonna get drunk on the Makers Mark. Barry stay away from duckblinds!

  31. superfecta says at 4:13 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Where is Fosse when you need him? This could all be settled with a dance audition and massive quantities of drugs (although I suppose that might also attract Cindy McCain, so there is a drawback).

  32. SayItWithWookies says at 4:13 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    obfuscator: Thanks for that — I know what tune will be stuck in my head for the next few hours. Hopefully it’s nothing a few beers can’t take care of.

  33. ronaldpagan says at 4:13 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    SayItWithWookies: I know right? This is a victory for democracy! A victory that will help assuage the blow of Hillary’s NY speech tomorrow: “This campaign is drawing to a close, and I want to extend my wholehearted support to the Democratic nominee…ME!!! PSYCH, BITCHES!”

  34. ReelectTilden says at 4:14 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Q: What? HRC’s got all the bitter gun-havers on her side. What do Obama’s peeps have? Organic vegetables?

  35. Iggy Plop says at 4:18 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    If this things goes mano-a-mano, Barry can beat her on his triglyceride scores alone.

  36. Whore Diamond in the Rough says at 4:18 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ronaldpagan: Warriors reference FTW.

  37. tunamelt says at 4:19 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ReelectTilden: Arugula.

  38. rockstarjoe says at 4:20 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I’m thinkin’ a dance-off to save the community center, a la Break-In 2 Electric Bugaloo.

  39. obfuscator says at 4:20 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Doglessliberal:

    Barry: “Your mother is so full of cynicism, so in line with the politics of yesterday, that she can’t see that a new and hopeful vision for this country is what the American people are calling out for.”

  40. Jobbotch says at 4:20 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    “And now, young Barack, you shall face the wrath of my squadron of half-enfranchised Michiganders.”

  41. Son of Mark Penn says at 4:21 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    tunamelt: If when you hear “got a rocket in my pocket” you think of the gourmet vegetable, you mint be a hopemonger.

  44. shorts says at 4:25 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Jobbotch: When was the last time Michigan was enfranchised other than the Detroit Red Wings?

  45. tunamelt says at 4:25 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ronaldpagan: You’re still on Jezebel! I just saw your comments in the Nancy Pelosi’s clothes thread, that is a shitshow waiting to happen.

  46. blogfather says at 4:26 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    I really hope Hillary still runs under a different party because apparently us dems can’t seem to get our shit straight ever since Bill. If her supporters really would vote for McDick out of spite then fuck them they are not democrats, they are Fucktard Feminists, who’s ignorance is only matched by hardcore Bush supporters. Maybe it would do us all a favor to dump them in their own party so the rest of the world can see how fucked up they are to the point where no one would even want to represent them in the white house. and then we kill them execution style. One can dream can’t he?

  47. ronaldpagan says at 4:33 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    tunamelt: Yay! Thanks for standing up for me, Tuna! I love Jezebel, even if I sometimes get shit for saying things like “The Michigan ‘election’ wasn’t totally legitimate” or “That one time when I drank a beer and had sex with a guy, I don’t think I was raped.”

    Son of Mark Penn: Can you dig it? Yes! We! Can!

  48. ReelectTilden says at 4:34 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ReelectTilden: “might” not “mint”. WTF?

  49. I’m still trying to embed images ;-( And I’m strting to get pissed.

    Geeks try this:

    You do not need a plugin to allow images to be displayed within comments.

    1. Take a backup of wp-includes/kses.php

    2) Open wp-includes/kses.php

    Locate the following line:

    $allowedtags = array (’a’ => array (’href’ => array (), ‘title’ => array ()), ‘abbr’ => array (’title’ => array ()), ‘acronym’ => array (’title’ => array ()), ‘b’ => array (), ‘blockquote’ => array (’cite’ => array ()),

    Edit that line to read, as follows:

    $allowedtags = array (’a’ => array (’href’ => array (), ‘title’ => array ()), ‘abbr’ => array (’title’ => array ()), ‘acronym’ => array (’title’ => array ()), ‘b’ => array (), ‘blockquote’ => array (’cite’ => array ()), ‘img’ => array (’alt’ => array (), ‘align’ => array (), ‘border’ => array (), ‘height’ => array (), ‘hspace’ => array (), ‘longdesc’ => array (), ‘vspace’ => array (), ’src’ => array ()),

    3. Save the changed file, upload.

    4. The images MUST already be hosted somewhere. This does NOT address anyone being able to UPLOAD an image.

    Q out!

  50. RacerMex says at 4:44 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    She is going to unleash the Clinton/Paul 2008 Independent Run!
    The ultimate combination of rabid delusional fanatics! They will go to the ends of the earth (many are from these dark recesses) with the just the words of FREEDOM, DISENFRANCISMENT, CONSITUTION on their breath.

    With Clinton you have “17 million” (or 15K-20K cat ladies, but whatever), and no money.
    Ron Paul brings in his 20k WOW players/orc enthusiasts and Money bombs (Seizing every penny from such a small group).

    They could take it to November and beyond. Taking their eventual loss and carrying that to a government in absentia in either Secondlife or the back hills of Appalachia. Although they could split early are their constituents are so diametrically opposed. You have the hillbilly barely able to comprehend the “internets” let alone Electricity and the Paul supporters whom reality is no substitution for a MMORPG. The forces of Woman, united with those who don’t know the touch of the gentler sex. Cougars with computer geeks. Yokels with the Yankers. Tied together in the disdain for “reality”, the Main-Stream media and Empirical Evidence

    HOPE FOR THE HOPELESS!
    CLINTON/PAUL 2008

  51. Doglessliberal says at 4:46 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    obfuscator: he would likely include the phrase “to-wit:”, as well.

  52. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 4:48 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    No no. This will be classic West Side Story, complete with the Jets and the Sharks and Bill in the background trying to woo some Spanish Harlem senorita by playing “Tonight” on his sax.

  53. ReelectTilden says at 4:51 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Doglessliberal: Lawyer snaps FTW!

  54. StupidGeek says at 4:56 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    queeraselvis v 2.0: This is exactly what I was thinking! All that glorious finger-snapping and dancing!

  55. edgydrifter says at 5:07 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    ronaldpagan: Perfecto! Thank you for preemptively reminding me of what I’m going to watch tonight. Can you dig it?

  56. Pop Socket says at 5:08 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Two words: Zoolander walk-off!

  57. Jobbotch says at 5:23 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    shorts: Dominos and Little Caesar’s.

  58. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:53 pm, June 2nd, 2008

    Jobbotch: How right you are. Tom Monahagm and his Catholic minions of pizza.

    Shrillary

  60. Ultraspanked says at 1:54 am, June 3rd, 2008

    Who is still backing her campaign? I mean really?

  61. LibsAreBoring says at 4:28 pm, June 3rd, 2008

    Obama is going to change everything…just like George W. Bush was going to do…and Clinton and GHW Bush and Reagan and Carter and Ford and Nixon and LBJ, yada yada yada….. A country of 300 Million people drawn from some 200 different backgrounds and we have to wait for one dude to adjust marginal tax rates 4% and host WNBA championship teams at his house to change everything in our lives…We should all (that’s right, all three hundo of us) just get lives

    The Iraq war sucks (cooked up by “Neocons” who are just liberals who couldn’t get laid) and that needs to end. Other than that Obama isn’t going to make me skinny.
