Teddy Thompson, I Wish it Was Over.

Liberal Values – Defending Liberty and Enlightened Thought
This has been making the rounds on the internets. It’s completely hilarious, and would apply equally to Obama, if he were pulling the same stunts.
It’s 2:31 AM. The Democratic Party is sleeping peacefully when it hears its phone buzz on the night stand. It rolls over and sees “Hillary” on the caller ID. It pauses briefly, considering pushing “END” and not dealing with this shit tonight. The thought is appealing but the Democratic Party knows that if it doesn’t take this call, another one is only minutes away.
DEMS: …Hello?
Hillary: Hey baby.
DEMS: C’mon Hillary. Enough with this.
Hillary: Don’t you get it? You NEED me.
DEMS: No, I don’t. It was fun while it lasted but I’m with Barack now. I made my choice, it’s done.
Hillary: You can’t really mean that. How can you say that after all the good times we had?
DEMS: To be honest, I started hanging out with you because Bill’s pretty awesome.
Hillary: But I’m just like Bill!
DEMS: No, you’re not. Bill is charismatic, inspiring, and gets me really good weed.
Hillary: Fuck you. You’re elitist!
DEMS: I’m going back to sleep.
Hillary: No, no, wait. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that. Listen… there’s still got to be a chance. Remember when people told George W it was all over. When the numbers were against him?
DEMS: Yeah but…
Hillary: Remember?! And remember how everyone said America didn’t really want to be with George W? But they stuck it out anyway?
DEMS: Yeah and they’re really fucked up now, Hillary.
Hillary: But WE’LL make it work. Forget Barack, baby. Just take me back and we can forget this ever happened.
DEMS: Look, I think you’re a really good Senator… let’s just keep it that way, OK?
Hillary: …I’ll see you at the convention.
DEMS: No! Hillary I told you…

DEMS: Dammit. Crazy bitch.
Ron Chusid at Liberal Values sez: This has been posted all over the internets today, with some Clinton supporters coming out with cries of sexism. This is a joke about relationships and not letting things go, not sexism. Or to be more blunt, I’ll quote Wil [Wheaton] again who wrote, “I’m not sexist. This isn’t sexist. That’s a stupid straw man, and if you try to make that claim, I will point and laugh at you.”
HT to MsJoanne for the heads-up!

Strange, but in the Sunday Seattle Times, there were multiple articles trying to make the point that Hillary needs to make the decision to quit, not be ‘pushed out’ by party heavyweights (? Gore, et al?). This will allow her backers to switch over to Obama more easily, without feeling like they were shitcanned by the party.
The only point they miss is that the party is being shitcanned by Hillary. Duh…

she’ll be crawling thru the window just after closing time pretty soon. Don’t ask…

That is too funny.

So when Hillary finally quits the race, how does her campaign pay back the millions of dollars she loaned it, since it’ll no longer be fundraising?

Actually, toasterhead, I think they continue to hold fundraisers to try to raise whatever money they can to pay back their campaign’s debts. Even if the debts are to the candidate him/herself. I think even Rudy’s quietly trying to raise money to pay off his campaign’s debts.
