And that is how she is going to steal the nomination. I believe some pledged super delegates will change their mind when it gets to the convention. And there will be rioting in major cities across this country.



""The Denver Sheriff Department is preparing to handle up to 3,000 arrests during the 2008 Democratic National Convention, the director of corrections said Thursday. Bill Lovingier, who is also the undersheriff in charge of the jails, spoke about a wide range of preparations for handling the possibility of mass arrests after criticisms by the Colorado American Civil Liberties Union were reported in The Denver Post.""

Not just the convention, would you want to be on the secret service detail of the first black president?

There's too many crazies out there for me!

Stop that talk. Stop it now.

Incidentally, people are volunteering left and right for his Secret Service detail. His agents love him. A couple I met in SC said it was the best assignment they'd ever had. One of the guys actually handles the overflow crowds better than any political aide I've ever seen and belongs on staff as director of communications.

The Secret Service guys were actually one of the things that convinced me Obama was as good and decent as he comes across in his books.

I am not understanding why so many arrests are expected during the convention. Will somebody please explain it to me?

I am not saying ANYTHING about him, but I grew up in the South. I had two black roomates at a university in the south and have seen the feelings that even people my age still have, need I remind you of the Jena 6 students.

Its a sad state of affairs but it doesn't make it less real. Keep in mind even in the Dem primary he didn't win the white working class vote. While one demographic is going to be very happy there is another that won't be. Ironically, I write all this as I am driving through the mountains of western North Carolina where a think a majority of unhappy people will reside.
