Democrats and Vote Counting
Hillary ClintonHillary's campaign has finally given a sign that they may end her run for the nomination next week. TLG stresses "may." Clintons are best known for lying.

Today, while the DNC gathered to figure out what to do about Florida and Michigan, Hillary had her followers protesting. The liberal media did their best to keep the camera in close-up mode to hide its poor showing. It was clear that the crowd was very small. Maybe there were two or three hundred at the most. They had to be bussed in to get any protest at all.

The final decision was to seat both state's delegations and give each delegate a half vote. This upset Hillary.

Hillary maintained that all votes must count, yet she seemed not to want to include caucus votes that put Obama ahead of her in the popular vote. Such is typical liberal hypocrisy.

The fact is Florida and Michigan votes did count, if they were Republican. During the 2000 fiasco where Gore attempted to sue his way into the White House, the democrats charged that it was the Republicans causing Al Gore to lose. However, this time, the democrats had no one to blame, except themselves.

The democrat candidates all signed agreements not to campaign in Florida and Michigan as the two states had violated party rules by moving up their primary dates. Of course, Hillary violated the spirit of that agreement by showing up in Florida for "other business" and getting a lot of press in doing so.

Back in 2000, the charges of voter confusion in the general election by democrats voting for the wrong candidate due to the way the ballots were configured. The problem with that accusation was the ballot had been designed by the democrats themselves.

So, the votes were counted, recounted and recounted again a total of four times, even by the liberal media. On every count and recount, George W Bush came out on top of Al Gore. Al Gore then filed a lawsuit that was denied by the US Supreme Court.

The democrats like to say that the US Supreme Court decision to deny Al Gore was close at 5-4. That's a lie. It was 7-2. The 5-4 decision was simply on how to remedy the situation after it had already thrown out the liberal Florida Supreme Court's decision as unconstitutional.

The simple fact with which the democrats still can't accept is that it wasn't Florida that cost Al Gore the election. It was that Al Gore couldn't even carry his own state of Tennessee. If Gore had won the state with the people that knew him best, he would have beaten George W Bush.

Now, what will Hillary do? Never underestimate the ability of a Clinton to lie, cheat and steal.
