Hillary To Concede By Friday, For Real

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

We used this same movie picture yesterday when the Associated Press erroneously reported that Hillary would concede in her speech last night. It only makes sense to use it again, because, as all Americans know, you have to destroy two (2) Death Stars to take down an Empire.
